New remote service options |
|
 Remote internet support allows us to see your computer screen while operating your keyboard and mouse from our office. When we come out to your home and provide on-site service we have a one-hour minimum charge, but for remote service we are now offering a 1/2 hour minimum rate of $45 then $10 for each 10-minute increment. Payment can be made via credit card at the completion of the call. This new low-cost option can be helpful if you need a quick-fix to a problem that doesn't warrant scheduling an on-site visit.

Cheap Unlicensed Computer Repair -
"You Get What You Pay For"
Do you have a friend or neighbor who "knows" computers - perhaps someone who just started fixing computers during their spare time? Do they actively keep-up with the computer industry while fixing computers on a daily basis like we do?
Computer Techs has been in business since 2003, and our technicians have over 20 years computer experience.
Our calls for service have leveled off in the past year-or-so due to an abundance of new inexperienced and unlicensed computer repair people. Similar to hiring an unlicensed contractor to work on your home, it may be cheaper to go with someone else in the short term. However, you can count on Computer Techs to get the job done quickly and correctly, and we'll be available the next time you need service. We are often called to finish repairing what someone else didn't fix correctly.
Thank you for recommending us

Thank you.
