In Datchet I'm regularly helping with households near the Green whose broadband drops out, families along Horton Road sharing one ageing family PC, and commuters working from home on the Thames Valley side. Printer mysteries are another frequent request. Every fix gets explained in plain English while I work.
For prices, see the Datchet home-visit rates (weekday and weekend). Reading first? I wrote a short guide on why a printer says it is offline.
Local Windows PC and laptop specialist available for Datchet residents. I visit your home or office, or resolve your issue remotely via secure screen-share. Apple internals and shattered screens still go to a specialist.

A proper setup is mostly the steps people skip: I create the Windows account properly, run every pending update, strip out the trial software nobody wants and reconnect the printer. Then I move your files, photos and bookmarks across from the old machine, checking the transfer before I leave. When a shared family PC is being replaced, I move everyone's accounts and files across in one go, with the printer working again before I leave. A basic PC or laptop setup sits in the £50–£75 band on my pricing page, and phone and remote diagnosis is free until I tell you what is wrong and what it will cost.
Whether it's a scam pop-up or a genuine infection, the approach is the same: I sweep for malware, remove the pop-ups and any remote-access tool the callers left behind, reset browser and account security, set up honest antivirus, and talk you through what the next attempt will look like, so you can hang up with confidence. Phones and tablets get the same care on the software side — scam apps, rogue profiles and adware removed, accounts locked down with proper passwords and two-factor — though I don't repair phone screens or other hardware; this is the security side only. Scheduled cleanups like these run at £25 per 15 minutes, first hour capped at £75 on weekdays, after that £25 per 15 minutes with no cap.

I recover drives on-site at your property, or remotely where possible.

It usually costs about £100, but it can cost more, depending on how difficult the job is.
Households around the Green often report a connection that drops rather than runs slowly, which usually points at the router, where it sits, or an ageing line rather than the provider. I check the whole path and tell you where the fault actually is.
Yes. Along Horton Road I often find one ageing family computer doing all the work. A thorough cleanup and an SSD upgrade are usually the least disruptive ways to make it comfortable to share again.
Yes. Much of my Datchet work is commuters who need a dependable machine during the working day, and the faults that interrupt it — a laptop that will not wake, a printer that has gone offline, a connection that will not hold.
