How it works · St. Clairsville, Ohio
A free visit. Then a price in writing.
I come to you, see how your week runs and tell you what I’d fix. You decide.
The first visit is free: 30 minutes at your place. You leave with the first three things I’d fix. No obligation.

Fair questions
Straight answers.
Is the first visit really free?
Yes. 30 minutes at your place or on the phone, no obligation, and you leave with the first three things I’d fix.
What will the work cost?
You get a fixed price in writing before I start. The prices page lists what most jobs cost.
Do I need a monthly plan?
No. A monthly plan is only for the things you want kept running.
Do you need my passwords?
No. You keep every password: you invite me as a user, or send me the file.
Do you come to me?
Yes, anywhere in the valley, from St. Clairsville to Wheeling, Steubenville and Cambridge. Or on the phone, if that is easier.
Are you an accountant?
No. I’m not an accountant, bookkeeper, CPA or attorney, and I don’t give tax or legal advice.
Start with step one.
30 minutes, at your place or on the phone. You leave with the first three things I’d fix.
