Home / House Calls

House calls · Computer help

Computer help that comes to your door.

Slow computer, pop-ups, a new laptop to set up, or Wi-Fi that won't reach the back bedroom? I come to your home across the South Okanagan, fix it, and explain what happened in plain English.

Your first consultation is always free.

What I help with

If it plugs in or connects, I can probably help.

Slow computer tune-ups

Clear out the clutter and get your computer running like it should.

Virus & scam cleanup

Remove malware and pop-ups, and lock things down so it doesn’t happen again.

New computer setup

Unbox, set up and move everything over from your old machine.

Backups

Set up automatic backups so your files are safe if something fails.

Printers & devices

Get printers, scanners and other devices talking to your computer.

Email & accounts

Fix email problems and sort out accounts and passwords.

Home networking

Wi-Fi in every room — secured and stable.

Dead zones, dropped video calls and a router hidden in a closet are all fixable. I'll find what's slowing you down and set up a network that reaches the whole house.

How a house call works

Simple, from the first call.

  1. Tell me what's wrong

    Call, text or email and describe the problem in your own words — no tech vocabulary needed.

  2. I come to you

    We book a time that suits you, and I work on it right there at your home.

  3. Fixed — and explained

    You'll know what was wrong, what I did, and how to avoid it next time.

Quick fix? Remote help works too.

For smaller problems, I can connect to your computer securely over the internet and fix it while you watch — no visit needed.

Common questions

Do you work on both PCs and Macs?

Yes — Windows PCs and Macs, plus phones, tablets, printers and home networks.

Will you try to sell me a new computer?

No. I'll tell you honestly whether it's worth fixing, and only recommend buying something new when it makes sense.

What areas do you cover?

House calls across the South Okanagan — Penticton, Summerland, Naramata, Kaleden, Okanagan Falls, Oliver, Osoyoos and Keremeos.

Tech acting up?
