Tech Help in Wasaga Beach for Homes and Cottages

I am Brent, the one person behind TechBrent. Wasaga Beach is well inside my on-site area from Midland, so home and cottage visits here are straightforward to book.

Year-round homes

Moving house is a classic time for tech to fall apart. I can help you:

• Get a new internet connection, Wi-Fi and printer working together (see Wi-Fi setup)
• Set up a new TV and streaming apps so you can watch what you actually pay for
• Fix a slow or troubled Windows PC, or set up a new Mac
• Move photos and contacts to a new iPhone, iPad or Android device
• Put a simple backup in place for your photos and files

Cottages and seasonal places

If your place sits empty part of the year, it helps to have someone check the tech before guests arrive. I can make sure the Wi-Fi, TV and streaming work, write simple instructions for guests, and handle follow-up questions by remote session once you are back home.

Remote help between visits

Many problems never need a visit. You let me see your screen, I fix the issue while you watch, and we are done. It is often the quickest and least expensive option.

Tech help for seniors

I am patient, I skip the jargon, and I am happy to show you the same thing twice. Video calls, email, online banking safety and scam checks are all common requests. More on the tech help for seniors page.

One person to make it all work together

Your phone, computer, TV and Wi-Fi should feel like one setup, not four separate headaches. As your tech concierge, I make it all work together.

Drone photos in Wasaga Beach

I take aerial photos and short clips of homes, acreages, cottages and waterfront. From above, a buyer or guest can see exactly where a place sits and how close it is to the water. Beach crowds and wind can affect when I can fly, so we pick a time that works. See the drone page.

What it costs

The rates are the same everywhere I work. Remote support is $95/hour, with a 30-minute minimum ($60), then billed in 15-minute increments. On-site support is $125/hour, with a one-hour minimum, then billed in 15-minute increments. All rates plus HST. New clients prepay the minimum by secure online payment before we start: $67.80 with HST for remote support (30 minutes), or $141.25 with HST for an on-site visit (one hour). For drone work, tell me about the property and I will write back with a quote. Full details are on the Services page.
