How it works

Simple help without the runaround.

The goal is to make getting help feel easy, especially if technology already has you frustrated.

1

Send a short request

Use the form and describe the problem in your own words. No technical diagnosis needed.

2

I follow up first

I’ll ask any needed questions, confirm the area, and make sure a visit makes sense before scheduling.

3

We fix or make a plan

I’ll help at your pace, explain what I’m doing, and tell you honestly if replacement or another option is smarter.

Pricing

Simple hourly pricing.

No confusing service menu. No surprise add-ons.

First hour

$60

Includes the visit within my standard service area and up to one hour of help.

Additional time

$40/hr

Only if more time is needed and you approve continuing.

Most regular home tech help is billed by time — computer troubleshooting, printer setup, new device setup, Wi‑Fi/device help, file transfers, scam/popup checks, and patient coaching.

For bigger jobs, like large data transfers, several devices, or a badly infected computer, I’ll explain the likely time before continuing.

If something is simple, I’ll say so. If something is not worth fixing, I’ll tell you honestly before you spend money on unnecessary work.

FAQ

Quick answers before you reach out.

No. Just describe what is happening, what device it is on, and what you were trying to do. A description like “my printer says offline” or “my computer is very slow” is enough to start.

How does pricing work?

The first hour is $60. Additional time is $40 per hour after that. Most regular home tech help is handled at this hourly rate.

What happens after I send the form?

I’ll review your request and follow up using your preferred contact method. I’ll ask any needed questions before confirming an appointment.

I’ll tell you. If a replacement, warranty claim, store return, or different option makes more sense, I’ll explain that before you spend money on unnecessary work.
