A Special Message about COVID-19 from Chris your local neighbourhood Computer Services expert.

The safety and well-being of customers is our priority and we’d like to let you know about the protective measures we're taking during these challenging times.

• We intend to keep my business open and will be operating as usual during this vital period of social distancing.

• We have been briefed on the symptoms of COVID-19, and everybody who works with us is under strict instructions to stay at home at the first sign of any respiratory illness or fever.

• We will wash/sanitise our hands thoroughly before and after visiting anyone’s home. We will also wear a new pair of disposable gloves for the entire visit.

• We accept contactless payments.

• We have not recently travelled overseas or knowingly had contact with an infected person. In the unlikely event of exposure, we will obviously stay home and self-isolate in line with the latest government rules.

• When booking an appointment we will ask you to confirm that you have not recently travelled overseas or knowingly come into contact with an infected person.

• We agree to adhere to the social distancing guidelines and refrain from shaking hands and keep at least 1.5m from others. We kindly ask that you do the same.

• For the time being, we will have to respectfully decline appointments to homes under quarantine.

• When working on client’s computers we will supply our own keyboard and mouse to avoid any contamination.

The team at CTB Host wishes you and your loved ones the very best of health. We’re all in this together, and together we’ll get through it.

Your computer problems fixed – guaranteed!

Leave it to the experts

Don’t risk damaging your system or voiding your warranty by trying to fix computer problems yourself. Chris Barrow from CTB Host is your local computer expert offering a mobile service in your home or office. After 30 years in the industry, there isn’t much Chris doesn’t know about computers. He’ll diagnose the problem and have your computer up and running in no time.

He’ll fix it – guaranteed or there’s no charge for labour.

On time, every time

Chris offers an affordable, friendly and reliable mobile service. He prides himself on being on time but if for some reason he is running late, he will always let you know.

Give your computer a spring clean

Much like your house, every now and again, your computer needs a good clean. It can accumulate more and more stuff over time, some of which you will never need.

Chris can remove unwanted programs and trial software, which can make your computer run slowly. He can remove anything you don’t use, speeding up your machine in the process and preventing those annoying pop ups.

He can also give your computer a real spring clean by removing dust from the inside of your device. This dust can build up, restricting air flow and can lead to overheating – which is never a good thing.

Don’t forget to back up

One of the most important things you can do is have a backup of everything on your computer just in case something goes wrong. Sadly, most people don’t do this and have lost vital information that they will never get back. It could be that final university assessment, precious family photos, or that best selling novel that has taken years to write. Call Chris to make sure your computer is set up so that all your data is backed up…just in case.

New computer and don’t know where to start?

Unwrapping your new computer is very exciting, but then comes the frustrating part – having to set it all up, which can be a little bit daunting if you don’t know what you’re doing. Chris can come to you and set up your new computer exactly how you want it, including transferring information from old devices. And he’ll explain everything using plain English – no jargon!

Chris will help you with:

• Computer repairs
• Computer speed
• Virus and malware clean up
• All computer hardware/software sales and setup
