About Us
Metro Computerworks was founded in January 2002 in its current location. The shop is not a retail parts store, but a repair / consulting shop. No appointment needed to come see us for dropping off a computer for diagnosis or repair.
What sets us apart from others is personal attention. We often describe our service model as “concierge-class”, meaning we work with care and urgency to each client on a case by case basis, and calls are answered in person by a knowledgeable technician. We strive to earn long-lasting relationships so you know you have someone to count on for any technical situation.

To practice social distancing policies, all visits must be made by appointment. Please call us to schedule an appointment. The exterior doors are locked at all times.

Marty - Shop Dog
Marty came from Coos County where he was found as a stray in the Spring of 2011. He was sent to the Oregon Humane Society after qualifying for the Second Chance program. After a couple of days there, Gene came to adopt him. He was quite timid and insecure at first, so Gene started bringing him along on service calls and to the shop. The diverse exposure to so many people has grown his social skills and confidence. He’s a sucker for treats and likes to run and play in the park with other dogs, though he is a bit of a thief (especially with food). You can surely meet him if you come by the shop.
