Now that COVID-19 lockdown is lifted, have you had your eyes opened to a whole new world where your computers and other technology will play a larger part in your working and home life going forwards? The Internet means that all of us have a chance to at least step back partly from the rat race and work from home. Or perhaps it's your life-line to distant family and it needs to be smoother and more reliable? 

Which is where I offer my computer help services in the Reading, Woodley, Earley, Twyford, Caversham, and Wokingham areas.

If you've ever thought:

  • 'that's not right, surely?' or
  • 'I wish someone could sit beside me and show me how to do this properly!' or
  • 'do I need a faster laptop or phone or can I get this one fixed up?' or
  • 'does this computer have a virus?' or
  • why can't I get this channel on my 'smart TV'?

...then perhaps I'm the person to talk to. I've had many friends and customers relying on my 'interventions' for the last decade and I make myself available for all IT help, computer fixes, phone optimisation, and so on, at least in my local area.

I can give an idea of how I can (or cannot!) help over the phone or email, please call me, Steve Litchfield, or text me, on 074 62 759 320, or email me at [email protected]

I charge £35 an hour, pro-rata, so you only pay for the time you use.

A typical job might be to arrive, get rid of a malicious spyware application, update the operating system, free up a few hundred Gigabytes on a hard disk, all in an hour. But I'm good at keeping you informed as I go on what I'm doing and why. I can handle desktop PCs, laptops, Windows or Mac, tablets or iPhones or Android smartphones. I'd say 'printers', but I hate them. We all do!!

PS. Yes, this page is free of bloat, of ads, of pop-ups and animations. I hate these too. The Web should contain information and links, not eye-candy! My background? Computer and smartphone journalism, here's my main 3-Lib page, if you're interested.
