Home tech help, right along the Ouse.

Computers, broadband, printers, phones and the smart gadgets that never quite behave. I come to your house, put it right, and explain it in words that make sense.

St Ives, and the villages around it — Hemingford Abbots and Grey, Godmanchester, Fenstanton, Houghton, Wyton, and Cambridge.

What I can help with

If it has a screen, a plug or a password, it is worth asking about. The everyday jobs:

  • Computers that have slowed to a crawl

    Start-up tidied, updates sorted, scam and virus clean-ups, and a machine that stays quick.

  • Broadband and Wi-Fi that drop out

    Dead corners fixed, a new router set up properly, a strong signal in every room.

  • Printers that refuse to connect

    Reconnected and tested, or a new one set up so it simply works when you press print.

  • Phones and tablets

    Email, photos, backups and settings on iPhone, iPad and Android — without the panic.

  • Smart speakers, doorbells and cameras

    Set up, connected to each other, and left doing what you actually wanted them to do.

  • Lost files and no backup

    Photos and documents recovered where possible, then a backup so the fright does not return.

A working engineer, not a call centre

My day job is Lead Helpdesk Engineer, looking after computers and networks for businesses, charities and councils. Evenings and weekends, I bring that to people's homes.

  • Years of it, for a living

    Microsoft 365, Windows, networks, security — the same work, across a lot of organisations.

  • DBS checked

    Background checked, so letting me in is one less thing to weigh up.

  • Publicly insured

    Public liability cover for the work I do in your home.

  • From here

    I live in the valley. The work has my name on it and I would like you to call again.

How a visit goes

  1. 1

    You get in touch

    Fill in the form or call. Tell me what is wrong, in your own words, and roughly where you are.

  2. 2

    I come to you

    We pick a time. I look at it in front of you and tell you the likely cost before I start.

  3. 3

    It leaves working

    I fix it and show you what changed, so you are comfortable with it after I have gone.

Where I cover

St Ives and anywhere within a reasonable drive: Hemingford Abbots and Grey, Godmanchester, Fenstanton, Houghton, Wyton, and out towards Cambridge. Not sure you are in range? Ask — the answer is nearly always yes.

The callout: £10 within about six miles of Earith, £15 further out. That covers the drive and the first proper look at the problem.

Something not working? Let's get it sorted.

Tell me what is going on and I will come and take a look.
