Services

From a laptop that will not start to a network that needs doing properly. If it plugs in, connects or refuses to cooperate, it is probably something I can help with.

For your home

Home computer help

Most household computer trouble is not serious — it is just infuriating, and it always happens when you need the thing most.

  • Computers that have become painfully slow
  • Setting up a new laptop, tablet or phone and moving everything across
  • Recovering photos, documents and files you thought were lost
  • Viruses, scam pop-ups and the aftermath of a dodgy email
  • Printers, scanners and the endless war between them
  • Passwords, accounts and getting back into things you are locked out of

For your business

Small business IT support

Small firms rarely need a full IT department. They need someone reliable who picks up the phone and knows how their setup is put together.

  • Microsoft 365 — email, Teams, SharePoint and licensing that makes sense
  • Backups that have actually been tested by restoring from them
  • Sensible security: multi-factor authentication, patching, staff accounts
  • New starters and leavers handled properly
  • Ongoing support by the month, or ad hoc when something breaks

Connectivity

Wifi and networks

Wifi problems are rarely solved by buying a bigger router. They are solved by working out where the signal actually goes.

  • Blackspots, dropouts and rooms the signal never reaches
  • Proper business wifi with separate staff, guest and payment networks
  • Managed access points and controllers, set up and configured properly
  • Wired networking, cabling and switches where wifi is the wrong answer
  • Making sure guests on your wifi cannot see anything they should not

Online

Websites

A small business website should be quick, clear and easy to keep up to date.

  • WordPress sites built to load fast and read well on a phone
  • Straightforward editing so you can change your own opening hours
  • Domains, hosting and email set up and explained
  • Looking after an existing site that has been neglected
  • A clear handover so you can manage the everyday content yourself

Not sure which of those it is?

That is fine — describe the symptoms and I will work out the cause. Diagnosing it is my job, not yours.
