House Calls and Other Services
We will make house calls within Kanata and Stittsville, to set up computers
and other electronic gear. We will explain how things work before we leave and
handle phone questions after that.
We will also visit to help you learn how to do things for yourself.
We won't rush you
because we're in a hurry to go somewhere else.
We are available on weekends and evenings.
Here are a few examples, feel free to ask for other help:
