What I can help with
Practical help at your kitchen table or living room—no jargon dump, no rush.
-
In-home tech support
Troubleshooting that starts where you are: slow computers, confusing settings, devices that “used to work,” and the small problems that eat an afternoon.
-
1:1 device training
Side-by-side walkthroughs for phones, tablets, laptops, remotes, and apps—paced for you or a family member, with notes you can keep.
-
Free 30-min consult
A short, by-appointment visit to sort priorities, estimate time and cost, and decide whether a full visit makes sense. For scoping—not free labor. No obligation.
-
TV mounting
Secure wall mounting, sensible height and angle, and tidy cable routing so the room looks finished—not temporary.
-
Wi-Fi & networking
Dead zones, weak upstairs signal, guest networks, and “why is everything buffering?”—checked room by room and explained in plain language.
-
Smart home setup
Lights, thermostats, speakers, and hubs configured so they work together—without turning your house into a science project.
-
Home cameras & smart locks
Consumer camera and smart-lock setup, app access, and household sharing. Not a licensed alarm contractor—no monitored alarm systems or fire/life-safety claims.
-
PC, printer & streaming help
New computer setup, printer headaches, email and browser basics, and streaming boxes (Roku, Fire TV, Apple TV, and similar) made usable for the whole household.
Pricing
Clear rates before work starts. Packages below are starting points—quoted for your home after we talk.
After-hours visit
$125 / hour
Evenings and Saturdays by appointment. Same 1-hour minimum and half-hour billing after that. Higher rate for off-schedule time.
TV mounting
from $149
Secure wall mount, sensible height, tidy cable routing. Mount hardware and specialty brackets may be extra.
Wi-Fi tune-up
from $99
Dead-zone check, router placement tips, and plain-language fixes for buffering and weak rooms.
Camera or doorbell setup
from $129
Consumer camera or video doorbell install, app access, and household sharing. Not monitored alarm service.
Free 30-min consult
$0
By appointment. We scope the job and quote the visit—no obligation. Not a free repair session.
How hourly time is billed: 1-hour minimum on hourly visits. After the first hour, time is billed in half-hour steps and rounded up to the next half hour (example: 1 hour 10 minutes = 1.5 hours). Flat “from $” packages are quoted as a job price instead—unless the scope grows, in which case we’ll re-quote before continuing. Travel within the listed service area is included for most Greenville-area visits; farther towns may include a small trip fee, quoted up front.
About
I’m a solo operator with an ops and systems background—used to making complicated setups reliable, then explaining them so they stay that way. Most visits are for households that want technology to feel ordinary again: seniors learning a new phone, families juggling streaming and Wi-Fi, or anyone tired of guessing at settings.
You’ll get the same local person every time—not a rotating tech from an app or a big-box ticket. I show up, listen first, and leave things labeled and documented when that helps. No sales pitch for gear you don’t need. If something is outside consumer tech (licensed electrical, monitored alarms, enterprise IT, or shop-level board repair), I’ll say so and point you toward the right kind of help.
Frequently asked questions
Straight answers before you book a visit.
Do you come to my house, or do I bring devices to you?
Most work is in-home. That’s where Wi-Fi, TVs, printers, and “it only fails here” problems actually show up. For a small device question, we can sometimes start with a phone call or the free consult and decide together.
I’m not technical—will I be able to follow along?
Yes. The goal is that you (or the person who lives with the tech) can use it after I leave. I slow down, avoid buzzwords, and write simple steps when useful. You’re never expected to “just know.”
What’s included in the free 30-minute consult?
It’s a short, by-appointment visit to look at the situation, talk through options, and estimate time and cost for a full visit. It’s for scoping and fit—not free labor or a sales demo. If something is truly a one-minute fix, we may finish it then; otherwise we’ll schedule proper paid time.
Do you sell security systems or monitored alarms?
No. I help with consumer cameras, video doorbells, and smart locks—install, app setup, and household access. I am not a licensed alarm contractor and do not offer monitored alarm, fire, or life-safety systems.
Can you help parents or grandparents who feel left behind by new gadgets?
That’s a big part of the work. Training visits focus on the few things that matter day to day—calls, photos, texting, streaming, passwords—so confidence grows without overwhelm. Family members are welcome to sit in.
Do you work evenings or Saturdays?
Weekday hours are Mon–Fri 9:00 am – 6:00 pm by appointment. Evenings and Saturdays are available by appointment at the after-hours rate when I’m free. Call or email and we’ll see what fits.
How is my time billed on hourly visits?
There is a 1-hour minimum. After the first hour, I bill in half-hour steps and round up to the next half hour. Example: 1 hour 10 minutes is billed as 1.5 hours; 1 hour 40 minutes is billed as 2 hours. Time starts when I arrive for the appointment and ends when I leave. Flat package jobs are different—they’re quoted as a set price unless we agree to change the scope.
How do pricing and scheduling usually work?
Most weekday visits are $85/hour. After-hours and Saturday visits (by appointment) are $125/hour. Hourly visits have a 1-hour minimum; after that, time is billed in half-hour steps and rounded up (example: 1 hour 10 minutes = 1.5 hours). Some common jobs have flat “from” prices on the Pricing section. You’ll get a clear estimate before work starts. Appointments are by schedule—not walk-in. Call or email with your town, a short description, and preferred days.
