We only open the files needed to diagnose and repair the problem, and we don't access anything beyond that without asking first. Nothing is wiped, reset, or reinstalled without your written approval. Back up before you ship; drives can fail during any repair, and no shop can guarantee data.

PACKING GUIDE

How to pack your device

Most shipping damage comes from loose movement inside the box. Ten minutes of packing prevents it.

Do this

Back up your data first if the device powers on
Use a rigid cardboard box with at least 2 inches of padding on every side
Laptops: wrap fully in bubble wrap so nothing can shift
Desktops: original packaging if you have it — otherwise double box with padding between
Include the power adapter or charger
Put a note inside with your ticket number, device password, and return address
Insure the shipment for your device's full value

Leave these at home

SHIP TO

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This was my first experience with KC Computer Staff, and I was very favorably impressed with their excellent work!  Phoenix quickly analyzed the problem with my PC, and got it fixed and back to me the very next day.  He was exceedingly polite and professional in every way.  I highly recommend them.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. KC computer staff was extremely friendly and knowledgeable. I scheduled them for an at home visit. They actually were able to come to location within a couple of hours. It was decided that the issue couldn't be fixed at the house and needed to go to the shop for more diagnostic. I put a rush on the fix for a fee and they had it fixed the next day. They were able to diagnose the issue same day and called to confirm how to proceed. We found replacing parts online but going above and beyond their employee took it upon themselves to make the 45 minute drive to MicroCenter to get the parts quicker. Hopefully I don't have any more issues, but if I do I'll be taking it back to KC Computer Staff.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Absolutely delighted with the service from the staff in helping with my gaming laptop! Before I took it in to them I was nervous that I would need a whole new laptop, and I am so so glad I took the chance to trust them with my metal baby! Connor was very good at explaining what could be the cause of my issues and I felt confident in their recommendations for fixes. When I was still having issues after the initial fixing, Connor showed me excellent customer service and asked me if I could bring it in for another go, with discounted rates for the inconvenience. I am very glad I did as my laptop is completely fixed, and I am very very grateful to Phoenix (I think, I'm so sorry if I am not remembering correctly!) for letting me pick up my laptop 10 minutes past closing so I could have it back Friday evening and not wait til Monday. My 5 yr old laptop runs like new again thanks to their expertise and I cannot recommend them more! 🤩🙌

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Moved to the DC Area, but still wanted Connor to be the one to work on my Mac. I mailed it to him, he mailed it back, and now everything that wasn't working is working now. Thanks Connor!

WHO'S WORKING ON YOUR COMPUTER

Two technicians. One shop. Every repair in-house.

When your device arrives, it’s checked in, photographed, and diagnosed by Connor or Phoenix — the same technician who fixes it and writes up what was wrong. Nothing is subcontracted, and nothing leaves the shop.

KC Computer Staff is the residential division of SentraCore IT. The same technicians who manage business networks during the day apply that standard to your laptop.

Questions

Before you ship.

How long does mail-in repair take?

Diagnosis within 1–2 business days of arrival. Most repairs ship back within 3–5 business days after you approve the estimate. If a part has to be ordered, we tell you the timeline before you approve. Need it faster? Select expedited service on the form and your device goes to the front of the queue.

Who pays for shipping?

You cover shipping to us. Return shipping is a flat insured rate that appears on your estimate, so you see the exact number before approving anything. Local pickup at our Blue Springs shop is free.

Is the $60 diagnostic applied to the repair?

No. The diagnostic covers testing and a written estimate that is yours to keep. If you approve the repair, the estimated price is what you pay. If you decline, the diagnostic and return shipping are the only charges.

Is my data safe?

We only open the files needed to diagnose and repair the problem, and we don't access anything beyond that without asking you first. Nothing is wiped, reset, or reinstalled without your written approval. If your drive is failing, we tell you before we do anything else. That said, back up before you ship — drives can fail during any repair, and no shop can guarantee data.

What if it can't be fixed?

We'll tell you. If the cost of the repair isn't justified by the value of the machine, the written estimate says so, and you decide. You pay only the diagnostic and return shipping, and we can transfer your data to a new computer for $150.

What if my device is damaged in shipping?

Inbound, your carrier's insurance covers it — which is why we recommend insuring the shipment to your device's full value. Outbound, every device ships insured to your declared value with signature required, and we handle the claim. Report any issue within 48 hours of delivery and keep the packaging.

Do you work on Macs?

Yes. iMacs, MacBooks, and Mac minis, alongside Windows desktops, laptops, gaming PCs, and all-in-ones.

Where are you located?

Blue Springs, Missouri, just east of Kansas City. We serve walk-in customers across the KC metro and mail-in customers nationwide.
