What I fix in Aptos
- Computers that have got slowAlmost always software rather than a machine that needs replacing.
- Scam popups and things you clickedCleaned up properly, plus what to look for next time.
- Printers that will not printThe single most common call I get, and usually quick.
- Wi Fi that drops or will not reachOften placement or equipment, not the internet you pay for.
- Email that will not send or sign inIncluding the accounts nobody can remember the password to.
- A new phone, tablet or computerSet up properly with everything moved across from the old one.
- Passwords and being locked outIncluding the ones that now want a code from somewhere.
- Being shown how it worksPatiently, more than once, without being made to feel stupid.
I do not do hardware repair. A cracked screen, a dead power supply or a drive that has physically failed needs a repair shop, and I will tell you that rather than charge you to find out.
About working in Aptos
Plenty of larger, spread out houses here, which is the classic case of Wi Fi that works fine in the kitchen and not at all in the back bedroom. That is usually a placement or equipment problem rather than anything wrong with your internet, and it does not need you to pay for a faster plan.
Areas I cover
- Rio del Mar
- Seacliff
- Aptos Village
- Seascape

Booked in one hour blocks. Past the first hour, extra time is billed in 30 minute blocks. One time, weekly or monthly, whatever suits. No contract and no call out fee on top.
Who I usually help
Older people who want someone patient, families who are tired of being the unpaid tech support for a parent, and small businesses that need something fixed without a contract or a ticketing system. Every visit is one on one and I explain what I am doing as I go.
Try it yourself first
I would rather you fixed it for nothing. These are free, with no sign up, and if one of them solves it you owe me nothing.
