Top Computers & IT related questions

Computer technicians can help with a range of computer-related tasks. They can do computer and printer setup, fix broken systems, install software, run tests, and upgrade complicated network environments.

You might hire a computer technician to fix a problem with your computer hardware or software. Or perhaps get help with internet and cloud services, along with cyber security services to keep your data safe.

Your mobile computer technician can work on your IT setup at your home or office. This makes diagnosing any problems much easier because everything is set up how it normally is. But more importantly, it saves you time and effort because you don’t need to travel to a workshop.

Most computer technicians will hold a degree or diploma in IT, computer science, or computer engineering. Beyond this, their qualification will depend on which area of IT they work in and the type of technologies they use.

Some computer repairs are quicker to fix than others. For example, virus removal or installing new software may take a few minutes, whereas complex repairs on parts like your hard drive or motherboard can take days or even weeks.

On Airtasker, you can expect to pay between $60-$100 for most computer services. Your computer technician may cost more or less depending on the complexity of the task, any parts needed, and how long it’s likely to take.

What does a computer service include?

The exact steps and inclusions in your computer service will depend on the computer and IT challenges you’re facing. In most cases, computer technicians are mobile so they can come to your home or office. They’ll work on your computer until issues are fixed and you’ve got the help you need. Here are just a few IT and computer services your technician can help with:

Computer & network setup

Book an IT service near you to come to your home or office and setup your personal computer, home network, or more complicated workplace IT environment. Ask your computer technician to help with hardware setup, which covers tasks like computer and Mac setup, printer help, and scanner setup. They can also work to install and upgrade software. Knowing that your Windows install or server upgrades have been carried out by an experienced computer technician ensures your systems runs smoothly.

Computer repair

Got a computer problem like a slow machine or your computer not turning on? Computer repair technicians are experienced at fixing common complaints like these. Your computer technician will start by diagnosing the problem. Once they know what they’re dealing with, they’ll fix it right away or advise you on next steps, whether you need new parts, updated software, or a more intensive service off-site. Depending on the issue, your technician may be able to offer technical support over the phone or Skype so you can get your computer fixed sooner.

Computer training & troubleshooting

Confused by computers? You’re not alone. If you want to improve your Microsoft, Google, Skype, or email skills, book a computer training session. You’ll find plenty of friendly, patient and helpful computer technicians nearby. Let them know what programmes or internet skills you want to learn and they’ll walk you through the steps or troubleshoot the challenges you’re facing. Arrange a one-to-one lesson or book a small-class IT session for your friends and colleagues.

Internet & wifi help

When your internet and wifi stop working, your world can come to a standstill. Your computer technician will whip your connections into line so it’s business as usual. Internet help can range from connecting your devices and troubleshooting connection issues to improving internet speeds and wifi extender setup. 

Cyber security & antivirus

Keep your computer and IT environment safe and secure from hackers and viruses. Book a computer technician to help with firewall setup and installing antivirus software. If you get hit with malware or a virus, your technician will take virus removal steps, fix any damage caused, and ensure your device is protected from future attacks.

Jeremy did a brilliant job helping set up my new internet router. I was having issues with it that both slingshot and the manufacturer of the router couldn't figure out, but Jeremy had it sorted within 30 minutes.
