What I help with

From a slow computer to a full home network, these are the everyday problems people actually bring me.

01

Computer & laptop troubleshooting

Slow computers, crashes and error messages. I diagnose the actual cause instead of just reinstalling everything.

02

Virus & malware removal

A thorough clean up, plus practical advice so it doesn't happen again.

03

Wi-Fi & home networking

Dead spots, dropouts and new router setups. I get every device on the network properly connected.

Email & cloud accounts

Email setup, password recovery, cloud storage, backups and data recovery, so your files are actually safe.

Patient support for older users

Extra time and clear step by step help, including help after a scam call or pop-up. No rushing, no jargon.

New computers & PC builds

New computer setup with your files moved across from the old one. Custom and gaming PC builds.
