Applecheck has been trading for many years now.
Over a decade ago, we worked with the original users of Apple Macs who were mainly creative, design, graphics and audio professionals and we saw the need for seamless consultancy, support and repair services.
We have several decades of experience between us in working with Apple Mac computers as well as PC users, both from our time as Applecheck and in our earlier incarnations with other Apple Authorised providers and Apple Resellers. Whether you’re looking for Mac IT Support or a Mac screen repair in Essex, we provide outstanding solutions.
We have a passion for technology and what sets us apart is that we have an understanding of what our customers individual needs are over the usual ‘Sales’ based box shifting businesses. Our unique combination of technical expertise and stellar people skills has helped us to develop a very varied client base – from home user to corporate business.
Applecheck puts your convenience before our own because we don’t want to disrupt your working day. If it’s a quick fix, it’ll be done on the spot. If it’s not, it’ll be carried out when your staff aren’t there.
Over the years, we’ve impressed our clients by doing the job quickly, quietly and with zero fuss. We won’t fill your ears with techno babble and we always communicate in plain language. This means that all of our dealings are transparent and straightforward.
Ultimately, we know that you don’t want technical jargon and hassle – you just want your systems to work reliably and to their full potential.
Most importantly, here’s what some of Applecheck’s clients have to say…
Always very helpful, quick to respond and knowledgeable. Julian is my first port of call if ever I need help in any way.
Thanks for your help. That's twice you have dug me out of a hole.
Excellent service!
I write this recommendation as a thank you to Julian and the service he delivered to resolve my IT issues. As a Director of a small business my laptop is a crucial piece of equipment and therefore when it goes wrong, it causes major problems. Julian was the person I called upon to help and he delivered a reassuring and efficient service and went above and beyond my expectations to resolve the problems I was facing. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Julian and the service he offers to anyone as he is professional, cost effective and understands his clients. I was so impressed that I now use Julian to support my business in respect of back ups and technical support.
Applecheck were able to fix my MacBook Pro, which was slowly dying, and save all my files and applications. They quickly diagnosed the problem and offered advice and options on what to do. They also let me know what their work would cost before going ahead.
They provided a very friendly and professional service and I would definitely recommend them.
Very efficient, very prompt, most helpful
Thank you again for sorting out the problems on my Mac.
Always very polite and helpful.
Swan Creative have now used these awesome guys at Applecheck for a year... and have not looked back, everything these guys do is simply amazing, considering that we used to do our own IT I would never go back, they are prompt, cost effective and we now can concentrate on what we do best, Design and Marketing other great companies, which when required we don't hesitate o recommend Apple Check to help out anything IT...
Amazing team.

Thank you for your excellent assistance. I have appreciated your advice and your friendly and kind support. If I should need any further help, I will definitely come back.
Best regards,
Julian provided an excellent friendly professional service and is certainly an expert in all that is Mac !
Our MacBook pro stopped working and Applecheck diagnosed and repaired the same day.
Will certainly use Applecheck services again.
I am delighted with the wonderful service that I received from Applecheck and would not hesitate to use your company again.
Best Wishes

AMAZING SERVICE!!! My mac developed a fault but due to its age (2008) Apple wouldnt touch it. On the way home I found Julian and Matt (Applecheck) on the Internet. True professionals and always willing to answer any questions. All of which were answered immediately! I dropped my machine off on Monday, a full diagnosis of the fault was provided. It was not worth repairing. They sourced a newer machine, dealt with all the data transfer, fitted a new hard drive and also added the latest OS (Yosemite) - all in a couple of days!! Will definitely be referring people to these guys and using them again in the future. Can't thank them enough!
You are always helpful and efficient and you ring quickly to rectify the problem.
Great job, iMac is better than it has been for many a year...I was very worried that I had lost all my data when it wouldn't start, so big relief that you were able to solve the problem.
Great efficient service.
Thanks
Ron
"It's been great to get Applecheck on board, to find somebody that also knows Pro Audio was a real plus!"
I have found Julian from applecheck to provide a swift service and the results are always positive (he knows his stuff).
Top class! - as always.
A great and reasonable priced repair plus excellent service.
Would definitely recommend.
If I had a Facebook account I would 'Like' Applecheck multiple times, as if I worked in one of those Chinese electronic 'Liking' sweatshops. But I don't, so I can't. Nevertheless, I can't recommend Applecheck highly enough.
When faced with a Mac laptop most computer specialists will run the other way, particularly when you are trying to find somebody to fix a laptop outside of London where, unfortunately, Dell seems to rule the day. So to have Applecheck in Leigh-on-Sea is an absolute godsend.
Applecheck work quickly, efficiently, politely and patiently with technological idiots - something I can attest to - as well as being highly knowledgeable when it comes to more complicated matters. Above all, Julian and Matt bring a human rather than a robotic side to technical support needs.
Many thanks, you got me out of real trouble with not one but two computers at once!
Fantastic service and very efficient.. Thank you all at Applecheck!!!
Was fully satisfied with the service provided by Applecheck. Both you and your colleague were highly professional, extremely knowledgeable, helpful and beyond patient.
Have already recommended you to friends and will most certainly be coming back to your rather than going to the Apple store!
Best wishes Brenda & Peter
I'm really looking forward to recommending you guys to my friends in order that I can bask in your reflected glory. The service you provided to me was simply stunning and beyond expectation in every respect. I was in the plough of despond Thursday lunchtime and yet, within 24 hours, you had put me back on the mountain top.

Matt
Congratulations, what Apple support took hours if not days over without success you have resolved in six minutes.
Very many thanks,
Julian at Applecheck, as always, offers a level of service rare in this day and age. He understands the importance of getting one back up & running (emphasis on 'back-up"!). I have had cause to use Applecheck's services four times now and he has, invariably, more than gone the extra mile on behalf of this particular customer. Highly recommended.
Excellent service, really pleased with our computer and with all the advice given. Repaired very quickly and a reasonable rate. Thank you so much, will certainly be using you again.
Applecheck provided a first class service from enquiry to delivery. I would recommend their services to anyone looking for Apple Support & Services.
I used Applcheck to reconfigure and rebuild my MAC, and I couldn’t be happier with the service. The team are incredibly knowledgeable and helpful. Everything asked for done perfectly and for a very reasonable price. I would have no hesitation to recommend Julian and the team.
Good fast service - recommended
Paul Coutts
Very professional and helpful dealing with my broken iMac hard drive. In fact I emailed three local companies at the same time regarding this problem and Applecheck were the only ones who replied! I’m glad they did as they replaced my internal hard drive, recovered lost data and completed the work in a timely and professional manner. Communication was also excellent.
Will definitely use them again if I have any problems. Recommended unconditionally. A+
If you hate dealing with IT support you’ll love dealing with these guys. Fast, friendly and efficient. Had a knackered keyboard swapped out in less than 24 hours and they proactively tried to keep the cost down. I’ll be back!
"Have been an Applecheck client now for around 10 years. On transferring my business from London to Essex I needed regular IT support. I discovered Applecheck/Julian by chance and I am so lucky to have such professional experts so close to home, here in Leigh-on-Sea.
A recent problem occurred when Julian was away on a family holiday. A phone call to Applecheck found Julian's able assistant Matt, who was quickly able to solve my iMac problem with a new part and I was soon up and running again.
I would Certainly recommend the Applecheck team for the smooth running of any business in need of excellent IT support."
Applecheck have been brilliant. I had a very tired old iMAC. Matt & Julian gave great advice to keep costs to a minimum and bring my machine back up to speed. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Applecheck to anyone who has issues with their Apple products.
Thanks & Regards,
Thanks again so much for sorting this quickly its really appreciated.
Great service and I will refer you to my friends.
Speak soon
Ian
Thank you for fixing my Mac so promptly! Great service, no hesitations in recommending you or using your services again! Have. Great weekend!
Sarah
Excellent service, prompt repair of computer which we rely on so much for Video Editing.
Apple Check is the next best thing to having an internal IT chap; someone you can call, email or yell at to get something changed, fixed or improved and know it will be done....quickly.
I'd highly recommend them!
Applecheck - my Apple saviour. After my ageing hard drive had corrupted, Julian recovered all my data and reinstated it for me on a brand new drive - all in just a couple of days. I found him to be very approachable and he gave honest advice which is always refreshing. I will definitely not hesitate to recommend Applecheck services to others.
Very informative and helpful service - I will use Applecheck again and would direct other Mac users too.
I've received very good support and have been given a temporary replacement Mac to use while mine is in for repair, so excellent service.
Cheers lads, nice and zippy with the SSD drive - happy bunny:)

Hi guys,

Just wanted to thank you both for the excellent service in sorting the iPad for me and will have no hesitation in recommending you to anyone I know who encounters issues with their computers, iPad and laptops.
Kindest regards
Julian is an excellent service provider who ensured we received best in class remediation of our IT issue. He is professional, highly competent and someone I would not hesitate to recommend.
Great service!
Having got nowhere with Apple helpline ( the bloke on the phone went a bit like basil fawlty,) I found Applecheck in Southend through Google.
Prompt, polite and efficient service, my computer works like new again!!

Hi Julian…..it's so refreshing to work with people who know what the are doing with our apple kit. You are both approachable, friendly and invariably solve the problem. My calls with Matt earlier this week are a case in point. He was courteous, inspired confidence and went about fixing the problem in a relaxed, methodical way.
Cheers…Richard

Tried Applecheck for the first time today and it was great!!
Julian really helped me sort out a long term problem and he managed it
all over the phone.
Will definitely use them again if I have any other problems.
Very satisfied, as usual thanks.
These guys are great and have a refreshing attitude towards 'Service',
I will never go to another Apple Store, that's for sure.
Anthony truly saved me from throwing my Mac and tablet out of the window, LOL
Apple Check - You Rock!
We've worked with Applecheck since EMIC first started four years ago. The service we receive from them is essential to the smooth running of our business. Because we all travel extensively it is important that our IT support is world class. We know that problems occasionally occur but having the guys from Applecheck on your team means that they are dealt with quickly and never escalate into a disaster. They treat each small request with the same degree of professionalism as you would expect if it were a major IT issue. If you are looking for someone to support your Apple based IT then you will be in safe hands with Applecheck.
Very helpful when I rang them - gave me lots of options to suit my budget. Repaired Mac Pro in few days - would recommend them 😀
Very professional and friendly, laptop was fixed and ready the next day... and they even did some extra bits for free
Very professional, as always. Striving to keep costs to a minimal whilst delivering a top quality service.
Cheers guys!
"A really amazing level of service -- diagnosed on the phone, a same day appointment and problem solved. Brilliant"
We have just changed our computer system here at The Boatyard Restaurant and Julian @ Applecheck Services has done a marvellous job
Friendly efficient service as usual.
As a Company we have used Julian's services for many years now and as testament to his services have never changed. The online ticket system for queries is fast and effective but also the response time to telephone calls is excellent. In our particular business we cannot afford to be without our IT system as it runs the entire business so need confidence that as time evolves our system is evolving with it. Good advice is given from websites to equipment and Julian is always on hand to make sure we run smoothly seven days a week.
Thanks for the speedy repair of my Mac mini installing a new SSD.
The quick turnaround got me up and running again within a day. As a foster carer daily recordings are essential to my role so being able to be back online again so quickly was brilliant.
A very fast, efficient and friendly service. If the need arises I will not hesitate to use again.
I booked my 2017 iMac 5k in as it was having severe performance issues. My comms with Applecheck have been first class (especially pleased when I saw they were using a professional service desk support system). The drop off and collection process have been faultless. I picked up my iMac today and it’s working perfectly with a new SSD and the latest OS which I was unable to update to.
Hi Matt/Julian,
Many thanks for your help in repairing my iMac, greatly appreciated and couldn't be happier. I will happily recommend you to anyone who may need help or assistance.
Thanks again
Kind regards
Adam
Applecheck have exceeded my expectations! Extraordinary A* service. I wish other companies would take example. Thank you for bringing my MacBook back to life. And for going that extra mile and tightening the screen to the keyboard and for attaching a missing cover for the screw. My MacBook is as new. Affordable pricing too.
Thank you to Applecheck for the very competent and thorough work in repairing my Mac book pro. The new hard drive is perfect.I will definitely be recommending your business to friends family and colleagues.
Thanks again
Peter Cable
Many thanks for the quick and efficient turnaround for the installation of my RAM upgrade.Nice to know you guys are local and well recommended.
Barry Fiore (A.P.V cert) Parallel Image Film Productions
I've been using my MacBook today extensively as it's 'feature time' of the month for me.
I'm most pleased you were able to complete the repair and upgrade as quickly as you did.
Also, I'm delighted that your 'fair pricing' enabled me to upgrade the hard drive and RAM. Indeed, I'm glad you found my hard drive was beginning to fail as I rely on the this laptop for my work.
Thank you for your time on the phone, which helped win you my business. I am so glad to know you're local to me and that I now don't have to endure the hassles of trekking to Lakeside to attend the McApple shop 'bun fight'.
You will be recommended warmly!
Kind regards
Julian, thanks for your help today you did very well in solving my problems.
Convenient location. Excellent service and reasonable price for work completed.
Would use again and recommend as alternative to expensive Apple store
I am happy with my new iPad very happy in fact and would like to thank you for all that you did for me. I was very pleased with the way things went and would not hesitate to recommend You to anyone that needs someone who is very pleasant to get along with and would do a very good job. It was lovely meeting you and if I get into difficulty I know where to come. Thank you Julian.

Thanks for the work on my iMac. It is fair whizzing along now. Only had it back a few hours but so far so (very) good. Excellent service, speed and value for money!
Highly recommend Applecheck.

Sorted out my Mothers 12 year old iMac , now its running like new .
Cheers
When you receive emails you are not to sure about, it’s great to have the support of someone you trust. They put my mind at rest but not only that they came back to me so quickly. I can’t thank them enough. Strongly recommend them to any Apple user for support and service. Thanks to the team
Thanks to Julian for sorting out my iMac's failed hard drive. He managed to retrieve most of my data, most importantly my precious iTunes library!
After panicking that I’d lost everything, my iMac came back to me as good as new with all my documents exactly where I left them.
I can’t thank you enough for making the repair quickly and efficiently.

Great guys and a good service. Had a little issue with my Mac Book Pro after it was repaired however this was not their fault! Messaged them on Facebook to notify them of the problem and took it in the following day. Repaired whilst I waited (with a little input from me 😉 ) which is really important as I have a hectic schedule.
Only criticism? Raise the height of the door! 🙂 Ouch!
Pleasure doing business with the guys at Apple Check!
Julian has helped me out no end, I received a fast professional service and will always recommend.
Thanks again!
So impressed with the service from Applecheck, they were so helpful and responded to my enquiries very quickly. My device was sorted within 24 hours of contacting them. Would thoroughly recommend their services.
MAC was extremely slow to respond! Applecheck took it in reported the issue, replaced with nice new SSD drive, transferd all data and files in three days.
Gerry Hockley
Great reliable service!
Would really recommend.
My Mac was dying, and now it’s flying.
A prompt and professional service.
I would gladly recommend Applecheck if you’re looking for support
Fast work, friendly communication, and a total bargain!
Great service, as usual, Julian has the patience of a saint!
Director @ Mayflower
When my firewire blew out I was desperate. I gave up on Apple and Avid. Applecheck was the first on a googled list of Essex Apple experts. The service was excellent with every problem solved and every query answered.
Best regards to Julian.
Many thanks
Chris North.
Great service from Applecheck. They provided answers and quotes for the memory for my upgrade very quickly. Always answered emails promptly. They did the upgrade with a good turn around time and Mac works fine. They kept me updated all the way
I was really impressed with the fast, efficient service from Applecheck. None of the usual sales talk or trying to make the job seem more complicated than it actually was. They were able to diagnose the issue with my mac straight away – and then fix it within a day. Brilliant.

Up until needing a new harddrive for my iMac, I’d not come across Applecheck before, but a quick look at their website and chat with Matt and Julian on the phone, confirmed to me that they knew what they were talking about and came across as trustworthy. In spite of the fact they are located some 50miles from me, I dropped off my iMac and Time Capsule for a replacement of the iMac’s hard drive and RAM upgrade whilst it was in. In spite of the Bank Holiday, Julian completed the work in a very short window and managed to recover and reinstall all my precious data from my Time Capsule; even updating the OS whilst he did so.
First class work from both Julian and Matt and I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending Applecheck to anyone needing support with their Apple products. 5* service.

A great service provided with no issues , speedy too
Many thanks
“Applecheck have been with us for many years now, servicing and maintaining our complete IT system. Being a design company our macs, emails, web, network, storage etc. is our business so to have a company that can service, troubleshoot and keep us up and running with the latest technology is paramount. They may not be based in the studio but always responsive and contactable. We don’t not see them as a supplier but very much part of the PAGE team. The only issue I have is the lack of cakes when they are onsite (especially Julian).”
Job done perfectly! - I was having a rare problem with my macbook pro '12, which made my laptop's performance very slow and constantly lagging while playing video. So it was impossible to watch a movie and browsing was very unpleasant. My classmate recommended applecheckservices, and I sent my laptop on Friday to identify what the problem is, I got a call from them first thing on Monday wether to proceed or not with the hardware replacement and after agreeing, my laptop was ready just the next day! I'm very satisfied with the service and last but not least everyone was so friendly and helpful, especially Julian! So I highly recommend anyone should they require a fix or repair for their Apple's product.
Thanks guys
you were swift and efficient and solved all the computer problems we brought to you - much appreciated!

Apple check saved the Mac from being a very expensive doorstop! Superb turnaround time and very pleased with results.
So much closer than Lakeside too!
Cheers again.
After my MacBook disk crashed during an OS upgrade, I feared the worse, but Julian did a great job of rebuilding the laptop and recovering all the data - phew! The quotation was reasonable and accurate. All in all, great service and outcomes.
Thanks for all your help, the swift diagnostic, solution and very good price.

Applecheck provides a good reliable service, that whenever I have encountered problems (of my own making or otherwise), Julian is always on hand to provide assistance and advice, and can provide real world examples of similar situations that help relate to problems of my own.
I would be happy to recommend Applecheck Services to other associates colleagues.
Many thanks for looking at my apple macs today. The newer one
definitely runs faster which is great and I'm very happy you woken up the older
one too.
Good outcome, great communication and reasonable cost. I highly recommend this company.
Dear friends,
Applecheck are an amazing company!
Thankyou for sorting out my problems today in such a professional way.
Courteous, quick, and accurate in your work; you ooze the sort of confidence which is an essential requirements when one is not technically minded, but needs a working computer.
Kind Thanks!
Brilliant service, can't thank Matt & Julian enough, would recommend to anyone.
Matt many thanks for your help setting up my mail accounts today. Great service from Great Blokes.

have been with Applecheck/Julian Lopez for almost 10 years and they have always been a crucial part in the smooth running of my business where deadlines don't allow for any technical glitches.
Whether it's averting a potential business crisis or answering a smaller query, Julian responds quickly and efficiently, treating every one of my requests with urgency and understanding.
Frankly, I'd be lost without the technical support I've received over the many years!
Hi Julian, Hi Matt,
Thanks for completing the upgrade and service on my iMac so quickly. It has been back in service for over a week now and the performance certainly has improved.
Kind regards,
Fred
Excellent service. Friendly and efficient, I would recommend.
Thank you very much for all your help. You provide a great service, very helpful and very reasonable priced.
Thanks again
One call - no fuss - super quick - thanks

Many thanks

It was the night before Christmas...well, about a week before Christmas and as ever, applecheck were super busy but still managed to service and upgrade my iMac within a day or so. The service provided at such short notice was outstanding...and at the best price. He does his utmost to fit in around you and is always on hand to offer free advice - nothing is ever too much!
In all, I have found Applecheck over many years to be very helpful, knowledgeable and always willing to assist.
keep at it!

Many thanks for your kind assistance with my iTunes problem, it was very much appreciated! Nice to know there is someone out there who can help!
I would have no hesitation in recommending Applecheck and if (when) I get any further issues I will be back.
