On-site IT health checks & repairs · Preston & Lancashire

Would your business pass a Technology MOT?

Slow computers? Unreliable Wi-Fi? Unsure if your backups or security settings are up to scratch? Heimdell visits your premises, checks the technology you rely on, and explains what needs attention — in plain English.

✓ We come to you   ✓ Clear written findings   ✓ Repairs quoted separately

Why this matters

Technology problems don't wait for a convenient time.

Small IT issues can become major interruptions: a failed connection, an unreliable backup or outdated security settings may only get noticed when something stops working.

43%

of UK businesses identified a cybersecurity breach or attack in the previous 12 months, according to the UK Government's 2025/26 Cyber Security Breaches Survey.

This includes attempted attacks; it does not mean 43% suffered a successful hack. A Technology MOT is a practical health check, not a guarantee against cyber incidents.

Common questions

Before you book

How long does a Technology MOT take?

For a small business, an Essential inspection is designed around a 60–90 minute visit. Larger or more complex sites may require a longer appointment and a revised quotation.

Will you need passwords or access to our computers?

We agree access and authorisation in advance. Some checks need a staff member to sign in or supervise access. We will not ask you to email passwords or make changes without permission.

Is this a formal cybersecurity certificate or penetration test?

No. It is a practical technology health check and basic cybersecurity-hygiene review, not a penetration test, Cyber Essentials certification, statutory inspection or guarantee that systems are free of vulnerabilities.

What if you identify a problem?

We document the finding and recommend next steps. If it is a fault we can safely address, we can give you a separate quote. You decide whether any repair goes ahead.

Do you only work with offices?

No. We aim to support shops, cafés, salons, professional services, property businesses, warehouses and other small organisations in Preston and the surrounding Lancashire area.
