Onsite computer help across Porirua, Whitby, Plimmerton and Pukerua Bay.
Porirua is the southern end of our service area and a regular part of our run. If your computer is running slowly, your internet keeps dropping out, or a device refuses to connect properly, we come to you, diagnose the problem and fix it onsite.

If your computer has a hardware problem or needs physical work, we handle it onsite in Porirua. That covers PC upgrades, replacing faulty components, installing SSDs and memory, and machines that will not start or run properly. Where a part has to be ordered in, we quote the total first and either return to fit it or take the device away.
Porirua has a denser mix of small business and light industrial premises than the rest of our area, and the work reflects that: shared drives and printers, point of sale that has to stay up, email and Microsoft 365, and office networks where several machines need to keep talking to each other through the working day.
Whitby, Papakowhai and the streets climbing out of Pauatahanui are full of split-level and three-storey houses built into the hill. One router on the middle floor almost never covers all of it. We work out where the signal actually runs out and put coverage there, rather than selling you a bigger router.
We provide practical onsite and remote support for homes and small businesses throughout Porirua, resolving faults properly rather than applying temporary fixes.
Unstable connections, weak signal upstairs, and dead zones in multi-level houses. We diagnose the router, improve coverage and stabilise the network. See Wi-Fi setup.
If your PC or Mac has gradually become unusable we identify the cause and restore performance through optimisation and targeted hardware upgrades.
Shared drives, printers, point of sale and the day-to-day systems a Porirua business depends on, kept working through the trading day.
New computer, tablet or phone? We transfer your files and accounts and set everything up so it feels familiar from the first day.
Malware removal, browser cleanup and security configuration, plus plain-English advice on staying safe online.
Recovering files from failing or unbootable drives, then setting up backups so the same thing cannot happen twice.
The city has the densest concentration of small business premises in our area, so a large share of the work here is commercial: keeping point of sale, office networks and shared printers running during trading hours, where an hour of downtime costs real money.
Residentially, the terrain sets the agenda. Whitby, Papakowhai and the climb out of Pauatahanui are full of houses built across three levels into a hillside, which is close to the worst case for a single router. Out at Mana, Plimmerton and Pukerua Bay the salt air is hard on outdoor equipment, and older baches often have wiring never intended to carry a network. Titahi Bay and the older central suburbs bring a lot of straightforward repair and device-setup work.
We cover the whole district north of here too. See Paraparaumu, Waikanae, Ōtaki and Levin, or check whether your address falls inside our service area.
Yes. A lot of our Porirua work is small business and home office: shared drives and printers, email and Microsoft 365, network stability, and keeping several machines working together. Ongoing management plans are available so problems get caught before they stop someone working.
Almost always. Whitby's split-level and multi-storey houses are one of the most common Wi-Fi jobs we do. A single router on one floor rarely covers a house built across three, and the answer is usually a properly placed second access point or a mesh system rather than a more powerful router.
Same-day and next-day appointments are usually available in Porirua, and remote support for software problems is often possible immediately.
