For 20 years, Lapteck Computers has been a familiar name on Eyre Street, building a reputation for value, expertise and, above all, looking after its customers.
It all began in 2006, when David and Martin set out with a simple idea: to make quality computers more affordable. At a time when new computers were expensive, they saw an opportunity to provide customers with reliable alternatives. Lapteck Computers was among the early suppliers of refurbished ex-corporate laptops and PCs, giving high-quality equipment a second life rather than allowing perfectly good technology to go to waste.
Two decades later, that original idea remains at the heart of the business. Lapteck has grown into a firmly established Galway company specialising in refurbished IT equipment — an approach that makes both financial and environmental sense.
Choosing refurbished technology can help reduce the carbon footprint associated with manufacturing new devices, while also keeping valuable electronic equipment in use for longer. In an increasingly important green economy, extending the life of laptops and PCs is a practical way for individuals and businesses to make more sustainable choices while saving money.
Lapteck is about much more than selling computers. The team also provides laptop and PC repairs, with a service that has become highly regarded locally. For 20 years, the lads have stood by a straightforward promise: no fix, no fee, alongside free diagnosis. It is an approach that puts the customer first and has helped build a loyal following.
Perhaps what makes Lapteck special, however, is its place in the local community. David and Martin are known not just for their knowledge, but for their kindness, honesty and willingness to help. After 20 years on Eyre Street, their reputation has been earned one customer at a time.
Here’s to 20 years — and to many more years of keeping Galway’s computers working, affordable and greener.
