Our only workshop is at 360 Croydon Ave in Lincoln Heights, in the west end. Every other neighbourhood is served by on-site visits, free pickup and return, or remote support.

How it works

Support that fits how urgent it is

Most problems never need a visit, and we'll tell you whether yours does.

  • Remote support

    We connect securely and fix it while you watch, usually within the hour. Software, email, accounts, backups, and slowdowns from $25.

  • On-site visits

    For hardware, cabling, Wi-Fi coverage, printers, and new setups, we come to your Ottawa home or office by appointment.

  • Ongoing maintenance

    Patching, backup checks, and security monitoring for businesses and clinics, so faults surface before they cost you a day.

Coverage

Supporting the whole city

Working from our 360 Croydon Ave workshop, we cover the whole city. Remote support works anywhere, and on-site visits and pickups are by appointment.

Common questions

Ottawa Tech Support FAQs

What does tech support cost in Ottawa?

Remote support sessions start at $25 and on-site visits from $40. The diagnosis is free, you get a quote before anything starts, and there's no charge if we can't solve a software problem. Businesses that need regular coverage can arrange ongoing support instead of paying per call.

Can you fix it remotely, or do you need to come out?

Most problems are fixed remotely the same day: software errors, slow machines, email and Microsoft 365 problems, printer drivers, backups, and account lockouts. On-site visits are for hardware, cabling, network gear, and anything physical. We'll tell you which one you need before you pay anything.

Do you provide IT support for Ottawa businesses?

Yes. We support offices, clinics, retail, and home-based businesses across Ottawa with workstation setup, network and Wi-Fi, Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace, shared printing, backups, and security. You deal directly with the technician doing the work rather than a dispatch queue.

How quickly do you respond?

We're available seven days a week, 7 AM to 11 PM. WhatsApp is the fastest way to reach us. We usually reply within minutes, and a remote session can often start in the same conversation. On-site appointments across Ottawa are typically same-day or next-day.

How do I find a computer technician near me in Ottawa?

You've found one. We're a local, independent technician, not a call centre, so the person who answers your message is the one who does the work and the one you follow up with later. Send us a WhatsApp message about the problem and you'll usually hear back within minutes.

Can I just get help understanding a problem, without a full repair?

Yes. Plenty of what we do is explaining what went wrong, whether it's serious, and what it would cost to fix. Sometimes the answer is that you don't need us. Diagnosis is free and we'll tell you when a problem isn't worth paying to solve.

Do you do IT troubleshooting for Ottawa businesses on the same day?

Usually, yes. IT and software troubleshooting starts remotely as soon as you message us: we look at the error, the logs and what changed, and most problems are found in that first session. If it needs hands on the hardware or the network, we book an on-site visit, typically the same day or the next.

What kind of problems do you troubleshoot?

Computers that won't start or run slowly, Windows and macOS errors, failed updates, virus and malware infections, Wi-Fi dead zones and dropouts, printers that won't connect, email and account problems, file and photo recovery, backup setup, and new device migration.

Do you offer ongoing IT maintenance rather than one-off fixes?

Yes. For Ottawa businesses and clinics we handle regular maintenance (updates, backup checks, security checks and monitoring) so problems get caught before they interrupt the working day. Households can also arrange periodic check-ups for family devices.

Do you support Linux as well as Windows and Mac?

Yes. Linux installs, fixes and software setup are a regular part of our work, alongside Windows and macOS. We work with Ubuntu, Linux Mint, Fedora, Debian, dual-boot configurations, and reviving older hardware. Linux support starts at $30.

Can you help if I'm not technical at all?

That's most of our work. We explain what went wrong in plain language, tell you what it costs before starting, and stay on afterwards if something isn't clear. No jargon and no pressure to buy hardware you don't need.

Stuck on something? Describe it and we'll take it from there

Message us on WhatsApp with what's happening. Most problems get an answer within minutes and a remote session can often start straight away.
