How long does troubleshooting take?
Simple issues can be diagnosed remotely in 30 minutes. Complex problems may take 2-4 hours of investigation. We provide time estimates after initial assessment.

Many issues can be diagnosed remotely, which is faster and cheaper. However, hardware problems require on-site inspection.

We have a 95% success rate in identifying problems. If we genuinely can't find the issue, we only charge the initial diagnostic fee.
Will you fix the problem once identified?
Yes, we can implement the fix immediately in most cases. We'll provide a quote for any additional parts or extensive work required.
Do you troubleshoot Macs too?
Absolutely. We troubleshoot all Apple computers including MacBooks, iMacs, and Mac minis running macOS.
Can you help with intermittent problems?
Yes. Intermittent issues are challenging but we have strategies to identify them including stress testing and monitoring tools.
