The right support route

Remote support or a home visit?

Not every IT problem needs an engineer at the door. We use the simplest route that fits the issue, then move to hands-on support when the problem genuinely needs it.

Remote home IT support

Remote help is often suitable for software problems, email issues, updates, performance troubleshooting, security checks and guidance on settings.

  • No travel or waiting for a visit
  • You approve the connection and can see the session
  • Suitable for households across the UK

Home visits when hands-on work is needed

Some faults need somebody on site: Wi-Fi coverage, physical connections, hardware checks or a setup that is difficult to assess remotely. Home visits cover Greater London and surrounding areas within 50 miles of London.

  • Tell us what is wrong before the visit
  • Greater London and surrounding areas within 50 miles of London
  • We will recommend remote support first when that is sufficient
Why home support matters

More of everyday life now depends on connected technology.

Home IT is no longer just one desktop computer. It can include phones, tablets, smart-home devices, cloud storage, online accounts and the router connecting everything together.

Yes. Common causes can include router position, interference, older equipment or an individual device. We can help investigate the likely cause and recommend the practical next step.

Can you help with scams, viruses and suspicious messages?

Yes. We can help investigate suspicious behaviour, remove malicious software where appropriate, improve device protection and explain warning signs.
