Home Service and Repair

If your computer fails due to hardware or software failure, Techs4hire is there for you, literally. Rather than risk further damage to your system by having it shaken around in your car we will come to your home and do the work on premises. In some cases it may be necessary for us to take the unit off-site. If that is the case, pick-up and delivery are free.

Same Day Service - In most cases you don't have to wait more than 24 hours for us to arrive to fix your problem. To most this is a refreshing change from a typical computer repair shop where you could easily wait for over a week.

Cost effective - Our rates for services rendered and hardware is considerably less than one would find in a computer shop.

State of the art testing and repair equipment - We have made substantial investments in equipping our technicians properly to ensure the job is done right and in a timely fashion. We know how frustrating it can be to have a technician waste hours troubleshooting your computer while you are paying for it. Our equipment diagnoses your hardware problems and provides a clear printout detailing the issues. Keyboard

Data Recovery - Has your hard drive crashed? Deleted something you shouldn't have? If you've experienced data loss due to hardware or software failure, viruses, or user error, call us. Chances are we can recover what you have lost.

Licensed and insured - Techs4hire is insured with The Hartford insurance company. We are also a licensed business entity. In the unlikely event that we cause a problem, you are covered.

System Cleaning - Dust and debris can severely reduce the life of your computer. Techs4hire will clean all internal and external components.

System Optimization - Over time, your hard disk becomes cluttered and fragmented. Also from the time you had purchased your computer several updates known as drivers have most likely been released. Drivers enable components in your computer to communicate with the operating system. Updating them can and does increase system performance. We will safely remove excess programs, defragment your hard disk and install the latest software drivers to get your computer running smoothly.

Backups - Disaster can strike at any time. While being optimistic is a good trait, it will not save you from power spikes, hard disk failures or rambunctious children. What would you do if all your data vanished? If you have to think about that question, give us a call. The fact is you need a solid backup plan. We offer several solutions designed to protect you from data loss.

Virus Detection and Removal - It is hard to avoid coming in contact with a computer virus these days. They have become more malicious and devious as time goes on. One must use common sense when computing and keep their anti-virus software up to date. We can evaluate your current defenses and provide new software, if necessary. If you have had the misfortune of being struck with a virus, we can remove the virus and assess the systems integrity.

Networking

If you have more than one computer in your home, you should consider networking them. We can supply all the equipment necessary and run the wires. We also have wireless solutions available. Below are several reasons to consider a home network:

Share your internet connection - With a home network you can easily share your cable modem or DSL connection. Everyone can be on the net at the same time. We recommend the use of an inexpensive router / firewall to accomplish this for added security.

Share your printer and files - A network can allow you to "map" a drive to another computers hard disk and use it as if it were your own. This allows you to share and seamlessly transfer files. Printers and other peripherals can be shared as well.

Network Gaming - Computers games have grown tremendously in popularity as advancements in computer graphics allow us to do things in games that us big kids dreamed about back when we were playing Pong. Most new games have a multiplayer feature. A network can allow a household to have a virtual battle between the family, or online.
