We can help with any computer repair needs you may have. Our #1 priority is protecting your data. When choosing someone to repair or service your computer it is extremely important that you make the right choice. It makes a big difference who you work with and who you hire to repair your computer. You want it done right the first time. Anyone can reinstall the operating system thus wiping out your personal files, pictures and music but it takes a skilled technician to fix the problem without losing your precious data. After all, securing your data is not an option. It's a must.

We are a licensed business with a service warranty that is simply the best there is. If we can't fix it, we don't charge.

Please read our complete warranty for terms and conditions.

Protect Your Data

Malware infections are on the rise! If you arrived here because you think your PC is infected, here are some basic guidelines for the inexperienced.

If you are experiencing pop-ups in your browser, DO NOT click on them.
Do not install any software that originated from a popup window.
If software has already been installed as a result of a popup and it is detecting multiple viruses, do not delete any files without first checking the file names against known system files. (These are likely legitimate files that you do not want to delete.)
Check your system for malware and viruses using programs from a trusted source such as Malwarebytes Anti-Malware and Avast Antivirus. There are free versions of both of these programs.
As always, if you are unsure of what action to take, we recommend that you stop using the computer and call a certified IT technician to fix the problem as an inexperienced person attempting to fix the problem may result in data loss including valuable system files which may require reinstallation of the operating system. Even if these files have been deleted, they may be able to be recovered by a certified IT technician with the proper tools and knowledge provided they have not already been overwritten.
