I set up and configure the tech in your home or small business so it fits how you actually use it — then I make sure you know how it works before I leave.

Not a services menu — the real jobs. If yours sounds like one of these, you are in the right place.
“The Wi-Fi doesn’t reach the shop.” House is fine, the outbuilding 300 feet away has nothing. Usually this is a coverage problem, not an internet problem — and paying for a faster plan will not fix it.
Wi-Fi“I bought cameras and never finished setting them up.” Mounted crooked, notifying you about every passing car, or recording to nowhere. Placement and alert tuning is most of the job.
Cameras“I got a new computer and I’m afraid to touch the old one.” Files, photos, passwords, printer, email. Moved over properly, old machine wiped only once you have confirmed everything is there.
Computers“The smart switches are still in the box.” Bought six months ago, instructions assumed you already knew. I install them and set up the routines so they do something useful.
Smart home“I need a cable run and I don’t want it stapled to the baseboard.” Ethernet to the office, an access point in the barn, a camera line to the driveway. Run clean and terminated properly.
Cabling“We’re still doing this on paper.” Small shops copying the same information between a form, a spreadsheet and a calendar. Usually a few hours of setup saves someone an hour a week forever.
Small business“My mum needs help and gets flustered on the phone.” I take my time, write things down, and I do not make anyone feel stupid about it.
Patient helpEverything else is on the list below. If you are not sure what you need, that is a normal way to start a call.
Coverage that actually reaches the far end of the property. Mesh, access points, wiring where wireless will not do, and a router set up so you are not rebooting it every week.
Placed where they see something useful, configured so alerts mean something, and connected to the switches, lights and routines you already own.
New machine set up, everything moved across, backups turned on, printer working, and a walkthrough so it stays that way.
One rate, no callout fee, no weekend surcharge. The consultation is free, and I will tell you before I start if I think a job is not worth the money.
Most house calls land in the one-to-three hour range. Cabling and camera work depends on the run — I will give you an honest estimate before anything gets drilled.
Call or text. Photos help a lot for cabling, Wi-Fi and camera jobs — I can often tell you over the phone whether it is a ten minute fix.
I diagnose the actual problem rather than the one you were sold, explain the options in plain English, and quote before any work starts.
Tested before I leave, and I show you how to use it. No mystery boxes, no jargon, no needing me again for something simple.
Most tech help around here means unplugging everything, hauling it downtown on a weekday, and getting a box back that still is not set up the way you use it.
I work the other way round. I come to your house, your shop, or your barn, on evenings and weekends when you are actually home. I set things up where they live, tune them around how you use them, and make sure you know how it works before I go.
I work with homeowners, small offices, shops, farms and side hustles across the valley. If it needs a cable, a computer, a network, a camera, a workflow or an automation, I can map the job and get it done.

For cabling, Wi-Fi, cameras and automation work, photos of the space are genuinely useful — send them along and I can often quote before I arrive.
