Services
One person to call for all of it.
Most problems cross more than one box: slow Wi-Fi is why the cameras drop out, and a missing backup is why the laptop failure hurts. I look at the whole picture.
Wi-Fi & networking
Dead spots fixed with properly placed mesh or wired access points, guest networks, outbuildings and garden offices connected, and broadband that delivers what you pay for.
Website set-up & maintenance
A clear, fast website for your business, then ongoing care: hosting, security updates, backups, domain and email, and small content changes when you need them.
Home automation
Lighting, heating, blinds and sensors that work together and follow your routines, set up on platforms such as Home Assistant so you aren't locked to one brand.
Business automation
Stop copying and pasting. Forms, emails, approvals, invoices and reports that run on their own using Microsoft 365, Power Automate and the tools you already pay for.
Excel support
Formulas that are giving the wrong answer, Power Query to tidy messy data, dashboards, and templates for quoting, job costing, stock and cash flow, built to your needs.
Camera surveillance (CCTV)
Cameras for the home, yard, farm or premises, recording locally so your footage stays yours, with alerts and secure viewing on your phone. Positioned with privacy rules in mind.
Backup, NAS & data recovery
Automatic backups for photos and business files, home and office NAS setup, moving everything to a new computer, and help getting data back when a drive fails.
How it works
Plain English, from first call to finished.
No jargon and no surprises. You'll always know what's being done and why.
Tell me what's going on
Use the form or email. A rough description is fine, and a photo of an error message helps.
Get a clear quote
I'll suggest the simplest fix, tell you what it costs before any work starts, and whether it can be done remotely.
Sorted and explained
The work gets done, you get a short note of what was changed, and help is there if anything comes up later.
