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 £45 - £120 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 set up 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 run 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

Cybersecurity & 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.

£60

Clapham Park, Greater London

6th Feb 2026

I have just taken over a small business, I would like to find someone tech savvy who can help me set my systems up properly. The biggest task is helping me setup my Apntly booking system via my shopify site for the therapists in my treatment room. There are other small bits like integrating a calendar through to the reception iPad without them accessing email etc. I understand most of the components but would just appreciate support from someone who is well rehearsed in this kind of area to ensure I am doing things in the most efficient way. There could well be some other tech setup bits that would be needed along the way. I would like someone to come to the shop and spend a few hours setting these bits up and explaining things to me rather than online support. Thanks so much

Build me a compact VR PC for under £1000

£30

Capel Curig, Clwyd

13th Dec 2025

The mission is simple: Design and source the parts for a "Steam Machine Pro" before Valve releases its 2026 hardware. Details: - mATX or ITX size - roughly 4060 ti 16GB performance - 32GB ram (preferably ddr5 but iykyk) - good value for money, my budget is somewhat flexible but I live for a good deal - I have a couple of case options in mind - I'm happy to build it myself but I do want help with finding good quality/value parts Price reflects cost of my ideal build budget and is obviously subject to final agreement of task parameters.

Jamshaeed offered his consultation and coaching with my new PC build. His impressive knowledge helped me find parts that worked together and I'm happy with and his keen eye for details saved me on multiple occasions when I was about to buy a part that was incompatible. He was keen to build the PC for me but as I live far away it wouldn't work, but I'm excited for the task and I'm reassured that he's only a message away if I run into issues.
