Local context
Home tech help, tailored to Hastings.
Hastings homes are a real mix, from older heritage places in town to newer family homes and lifestyle blocks on the outskirts. Many homes have rooms where WiFi struggles to reach, and new gear often just needs setting up properly. We assess coverage and sort it.

Common questions
Home tech help in Hastings - common questions.
Do you charge a call-out fee for Hastings?
No separate call-out. We are in Twyford, just south of central Hastings - the visit charge already factors in travel within the Hastings district. You'll get the price before we start.
Can you help with WiFi in two-storey or larger homes?
Yes. In multi-storey or larger homes, the router downstairs often doesn't reach the upstairs bedrooms. We typically sort 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?
We are based in Twyford so we are not driving far, and we keep Hastings appointments as flexible as we can. Tell us what suits you when you call and we will line up a time.
Do you help people who are not confident with technology?
Yes, all the time. We never make anyone feel silly. Many of our 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, we 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 us whenever something new comes up. There is no pressure either way.
