Before you book.
How much does it cost?+
Standard rate is $150/hour, with a 1-hour minimum. The first hour usually covers diagnosis and most common fixes. A $25 travel fee may apply for locations more than 20 miles from the nearest service area.
Do you come to my home or business?+
Yes — that's the whole point. Most jobs are done on-site, the same day when possible. We bring tools, parts for common repairs, and we work around your schedule.
Can you fix it remotely instead?+
For software-only issues we can usually connect remotely with your permission — saves you the travel fee and gets you back up faster. Anything physical (hardware, networking, smart-home install) needs us on-site.
What kinds of devices do you work on?+
Windows PCs, Macs, laptops, smartphones, tablets, printers, routers and home networking, smart-home devices, and home theater. If it has a power button, ask us.
How fast can you get to me?+
Same-day service is usually possible. Booking online is the fastest path. Urgent jobs (data loss, ransomware, business outage) — call instead so we can dispatch immediately.
Can you recover lost data?+
Often, yes — photos, documents, drives that won't boot. We attempt recovery and tell you upfront if it looks unlikely.
Do you set up smart-home devices?+
Yes — cameras, doorbells, speakers, thermostats, locks, hubs, automation routines. We get it talking, walk you through the apps, and leave it set up the way you actually want to use it.
Do you handle small business IT?+
Workstation setup, networks, backup strategy, vendor coordination — yes. We're not a managed-service contract; we're real help when you need it, hourly billed.
