Here’s some of our real Google, Yelp, and Thumbtack reviews.
- It was a pleasure working with Al on several computer issues. I had a "mystery hard drive" from an old computer from which I needed data recovery. (I was sure that the computer had been my mother's, but when Al recovered the data, it turned out to be my son's. Al was very patient and understanding about the confusion.) Al also cleaned up a laptop for me, making it fully functional and virus free.
Al drove to Durham and picked up both the hard drive and my laptop, so the whole experience was easy and "painless' for me. He performed the work overnight and returned the next day with my computer.
He completed the work in just a couple of hours, making the service very affordable.
Al excels at explaining technology in layman's terms...which I appreciate! He is very personable and professional.
I also own a small business and plan to use Al to freshen up the office computer network. In my opinion, you can't go wrong by selecting Al Williams for your computer/network issues.read moreread less

Al came out to our home and was able to quickly pinpoint the issue we were having with our wifi.

I was very grateful to find an honest guy who knew what he was doing. He was also very responsive to texts and arrived on time.read moreread less

Jeff A. - I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 9 that was having issues with the screen after I dropped it. Every other place I called didn't want to get involved with it and told me they stick primarily with iPhone repairs.Even though Al doesn't advertise cell phone repairs on his site I called and asked him if he could look at it. He said "sure, I'll check it out". I reiterated that it was a Samsung Galaxy Note 9 and he said "No problem, I'll check out out".To cut to the chase..He replaced the screen and it's as good as new. I know from reading about this phone that it's a very difficult phone to repair but he did it. He's dedicated and I think he's part of a dying breed of service professionals. He does it because he loves it and is not out for a quick buck.I'm a customer for life.Thanks Al!read moreread less

A few days ago, I called him again to upgrade from Windows 7 to Windows 10. Again, he was able to come out quickly and get the upgrade done. Made some recommendations that would make my computer work better and got all that installed and done as well.

The J.Excellent service! I had both, an old android and a mac computer that needed to be replaced. I also wanted to merge the two systems into one. Given my budget and my needs, Al made suggestions on a new computer purchase and, once I had it, transferred the files from both systems to the new computer. The first part of the work was done at my home. To save time and money, the bulk of the work, the transfers, were done at his place because I have extremely slow internet speed and instability at my place. I told him that I have called internet repair service several times but have seen no changes. Al noticed one possible problem and suggested that I address that with my internet provider.
