We  always offer free estimates on any cleaning or protection setup and guarantee our work, in addition to giving you a full system checkup and warning you of any potential issues down the road.

We can perform tune-ups, basic troubleshooting, consultations, and more IT service in the comfort of your home. In certain instances where all issues cannot be resolved in-home, we recommend us taking your system back to our main office for further diagnostics and repair.  There is much we can do remotely as well to take care of your computer problems!

Tune-Up & PC Speed Increase Services

It seems to be a fact of life: over time, computers slow down.

This phenomena is caused by a number of factors, including excessive
temp files, too many programs/services on startup, a full hard drive,
and adware and virus infestations. We
assess each and every system that comes in to determine the best course
of action. When you get your computer back from us, it is often as fast
or faster than it was when you purchased it new… especially if you upgrade to a solid state drive.

Bring your old, slow PC or Mac by for a free diagnostic and let’s make your old computer run like it should.
