These are the best mobile device repair techs in town. Don't be fooled by the hole in the wall…read moreappearance of the shop, these people are like old school computer repair techs, not fly by night mall kiosk guys. They take the time to really understand how all the latest devices work, and they do an amazing job of fixing them. On top of all that, they care about their customers, and really give you the best deal they can, while maintaining quality. And they don't try to up sell you on unneeded repairs. I went in for an iPad Pro 12.9 screen replacement, which is no easy task. They did it perfectly and in a reasonable amount of time. 5 months later, the screen had an issue that turned out to be a manufacturer defect, and despite it being out of warranty, they would not let me pay for labor on the second repair. Stand up guys, great technical skill. I would definitely take any device I had to them again.

They easily could have taken my $300 or so for a new keyboard, instead the employee made me aware of an extended warranty I was eligible for, and recommended I send my MacBook into Apple. I ended up getting the repair done by Apple free of charge, and am very grateful that they didn't take advantage of me. Will be going here for any future repairs and recommend it to all for honest service.

Pitstop Plumbing

I hired Matthew for an emergency macerator pump replacement. He was responsive and available when…read moreother local firms were booked out, which I sincerely appreciated, to his credit. However, I cannot recommend his business based on the quoting and final billing miscommunications. The project vastly exceeded the initial 4-hour estimate, ending up at over 8 hours of labor without any mid-job notification that the scope or time was doubling. Additionally, I was charged two separate $150 site visit fees ($300 total) for a single job that was split into multiple visits for their scheduling convenience. Despite a verbal agreement to provide the main parts 'at cost,' since I already had them ready to order, the final invoice included significant markups on basic cleaning and truck supplies like towels and buckets. When I reached out to discuss these discrepancies in good faith, suggesting compromise, the response was defensive and included immediate threats of late fees on a first-time invoice that was actively being contested. PitStop reduced the invoice by $50 as "good faith". After I itemized out a compromise between what I was led to expect and what was invoiced, I was ghosted. After waiting a few weeks and following up with no response, I chose to pay the invoice in full simply to close the matter, but I strongly advise other property owners to get a binding written contract and a capped labor quote upfront before any work begins.

Matt is professional, responsible, honest and reliable…read more He arrived on time for both visits scheduled. He gave me a play-by-play and offered great suggestions and follow-up.

We called Mertec to come out and fix the pump or we were going to have to have our house full of people go home. My call was answered on the first ring by a pleasant gentleman. He asked a bunch of questions then made some suggestions as to what we might try first. We did and called him back. Based on what we told him at that point, he made some final suggestions and asked that I call him back and let him know how that worked out. We did what he said and the pump worked great. I called him back to say thank you and ask how much I owed him and he chuckled and said you don't owe me anything, but that if plumping needs arise in the future to think of him. I absolutely will look to Mertec for any future needs as well as recommend them to anyone in need. Our fix was simple for people that have some basic mechanical knowledge.

John was able to get my mother's computer reset and running just like new. His customer service was top notch, he came to her house to first access the problem. When he wasn't able to fix the issue on site he took her computer and then brought it back the next day, hooked it all up for her, even reset her home page, set up her printer, and saved all of her favorites. The price was very reasonable and the customer service was tops! I would highly recommend Aardvark for any computer needs. read more

I go to college not to far from Aardvark Computer Renew. And I would like to say that the service that is provided is one of a kind! John was able to accommodate my college schedule and timing. As well as my inability to meet him at his office easily (ADA approved,by me) and needless to say he did a beautiful job and I would definitely recommend his services to all that think that there is not computer repairmen in the area read more

I had a complete hard-drive failure in my HP All-In-One computer, and was in the middle of a few projects so time was of the essence. I called Aardvark Repair and he took the system in immediately. He had a new hard-drive installed and all of my data transferred to the new drive by the next day. Very fast, very thorough, and I would certainly recommend to anyone in need of any computer repairs. 5/5 read more

John was very friendly and professional. I made the mistake of letting an idiot "fix" my computer before I got smart and took it to John. He replaced the part that the other guy messed up, cleaned up my computer, put new virus protection on for me and was very reasonable in what he charged me. I give John a 10 plus rating!!! Thanks again John!!!! read more

Initially they told me that the diagnostics would be free but after they spent more time than initially suggested, they asked for payment which I gladly provided. Subsequently, they were going to charge me for installation of new computer and quoted a price of 75$ which was reasonable. Two hours prior to the appointment, they changed their mind and asked for double, which appeared predatory and mercenary as they knew I was in a fairly desperate state to have my computer installed. I never got a chance to test out their computer installation skills but I had enough experience with their business practices to prevent me from recommending them to other consumers in the area.
