Man, talk about a review that's long overdue. And as I sit here considering what to say about this…read moreprofessional service and Louis, the heartbeat of Technolene, I'm getting chills. Do I need to get a life? Probably. Definitely. But he's that good; his character, his knowledge, his expertise and his communication style. I would stack up the professional service Technolene offers against any other in this industry. And because the person that works on your computer is someone with access to the most personal facts in your life, its likely you will be fairly selective. I trust Louis without reservation. He has become part of our family over the years he has been working with us. There is no other service in my life, with equal access that I can make that claim to. One of the things I like best about Louis is that if he doesn't know the answer to a question, he will research it instead of winging it. With that said, there is very little he does not know. As others have alluded, he works in both Mac and PC venues. In a rapidly changing industry, Louis has enormous range and the ability to make recommendations as well as the knowledge of what benefits and pitfalls are associated. There is high mutual respect so we don't make '911' calls unless it is warranted, however, when we do, Louis always seems to be able to accomodate us (which I find amazing!) He also helps us anticipate problems. We may not end up taking his advice but at least we know what will happen if we don't which is greatly appreciated. As I'm guessing many people do, we always seem to want something fixed immediately (its broken, right?). When this occurs, Louis will provide a real time estimate and without explaining the actual computer-'ese' behind the fix, will help us understand why his estimate is critical to the problem being rectified for good. Louis' communication style is always consistent. He is low key even when he is executing with a sense of urgency. And when my hair is on fire because I broke a shoe lace, let me tell you how much I adore THIS quality about Louis! Computer issues don't bring out the best in anyone and yet Louis always maintains a cool head and will responsibly lay out every option and the consequences of pursuing each one. he has too much respect for us to imply whether a consequence is necessarily positive or negative even if he has an opinion - he will simply help us narrow the choices, one by one, until a decision that is best for us is achieved. He can be as exhaustive or as circumspect as we prefer. In a word...he is perfect in helping us navigate the increasingly slippery world of computer technology.

I have used a few services before, but not until I met Louis was I completely satisfied. I know I can count on him to promptly return calls and in every case he's been able to quickly diagnose and solve my issue. He is a treasure and I'm lucky to have him so close by. It's wonderful in this day and age to have someone who makes housecalls. He's very patient, pleasant, and punctual. He's never once made me feel rushed or as if I didn't know what I was doing. I'd highly recommend his services to novices and experts alike.

I reached out to Sam, and he first tried to help me over the phone. When that did not solve the problem, I scheduled an in-home visit. He came by the very next day at a time that worked for me and spent about three hours working on my gaming laptop. He found that the hard drive had failed and replaced it with a new one. I felt the price was very fair, especially since there were no markups on the part. Sam was friendly, helpful, professional, and easy to communicate with throughout the whole process. I would definitely call him again for any future computer repair needs.

It was much easier than dealing with the pain of using my own computers. I had gone to 2 different repair guys, who charged me consultation fee's and didn't even fix anything claiming my computers "had nothing wrong with them". Long and behold. . . Ironically, once I finished school I got around to looking for a computer guy, and I found Peter! The turnaround time was far beyond my expectations. His pricing is very reasonable. If you use his services, you will not be disappointed. His wife and him are a pleasure to deal with as well!

The address is for a sports racket store where there's a random stack of printers in the middle of the store. Mike and/or his team I guess (?) pick up and drop off and you pay the guy at the counter who knows nothing about printers. I never saw the printer guys; just talked to Mike on the phone. It took almost 3 weeks, but at least prevented me from buying a whole new printer. If I spent another $100-150, though, I could have just gotten a new printer the next day. So this is the kind of situation you're dealing with.

After two days with Jose at Fix A computer, I received a text alert that my Son's laptop was ready for retrieval.
