Local context
Home tech help, tailored to Hastings.
Hastings households are a real mix. Older heritage homes in town with thick concrete-block walls that murder WiFi signal. Two-storey 90s family homes around Mahora and Frimley where the router downstairs never reaches the upstairs bedrooms. Lifestyle blocks on the Heretaunga plains with sheds and second dwellings to cover. New builds in St Leonard's with smart-TV setups that the shop wouldn't help configure. Glenn has worked on all of them.

Common questions
Home tech help in Hastings - common questions.
Do you charge a call-out fee for Hastings?
No separate call-out. Glenn is in Twyford, just south of central Hastings - the visit charge already factors in travel within the Hastings district. You'll get the price before he starts.
Can you help with WiFi in two-storey Hastings homes?
Yes. Hastings has a lot of two-storey homes where the router downstairs doesn't reach the upstairs bedrooms. Glenn typically sorts this with a mesh extender or a re-positioning - depending on what makes sense for your house.
How quickly can you get to me in Hastings?
Glenn lives in Twyford so he is not driving far, and he keeps Hastings appointments as flexible as he can. Tell him what suits you when you call and he will line up a time.
Do you help people who are not confident with technology?
Yes, all the time. Glenn never makes anyone feel silly. Many of his customers describe themselves as 'not techy' and that is exactly who this service is for.
Will you talk to my internet provider for me?
Yes. If the underlying problem is with your telco, Glenn will act as your advocate and speak tech on your behalf so you do not have to.
Do you offer ongoing help?
Yes. Many customers call Glenn whenever something new comes up. There is no pressure either way.
