What we do

One trusted partner for every device in your home

From the WiFi router to the smart doorbell, we set it up, fix it, and show you how to use it — all in one visit whenever we can.

WiFi & Home Networks

Fast, secure internet in every room. We fix dead zones, set up mesh systems, and lock down your network.

Computer Troubleshooting

Slow, frozen, or acting up? We diagnose and fix Windows & Mac problems — and speed things back up.

Printer Setup

Wireless printing that actually works — from every laptop, tablet, and phone in the house.

Smart TV & Streaming

Netflix, Prime, Disney+ and live TV — set up cleanly with one simple remote and no cable clutter.

Security Cameras

See your home from anywhere. Doorbell cams and security systems installed and set up on your phone.

Smart Home Devices

Lights, thermostats, speakers, and locks that work together — controlled by your voice or your phone.

New Computer & Phone Setup

Just unbox it — we’ll set up your new device, move everything over, and make it feel familiar.

Data Transfer & Backup

Never lose a precious photo again. We move your files safely and set up automatic backups.

Passwords & Accounts

Locked out or overwhelmed? We organize your logins securely so you never scramble for a password again.

Scam Awareness & Remote Access Check

If someone talked you into installing remote access software, we can check your computer, remove suspicious tools, and explain what happened in plain language.

Remote Support

Quick fixes without the wait. We connect securely and solve many issues while you stay on the couch.

Technology Training

Learn at your own pace. Patient, one-on-one lessons on the devices and apps you actually use.

Why Beacon

Built for your whole household — not just one person

Most tech help is either aimed only at seniors or built for big offices. We’re different: we solve the real, everyday technology problems that affect the entire family — parents, kids, grandparents, and everyone in between.

We come to you

No unplugging cables and hauling gear across town. We fix things where they live — in your home.

Plain language, always

We explain what’s happening in words that make sense — never talking down, never showing off.

Patient & unhurried

We stay until it’s working and you’re comfortable. Questions are always welcome.

Security & privacy first

Your data stays yours. We protect your accounts and never leave you exposed.

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to feel confident before you book.

Do you really come to my home?

Yes — in-home service is what we do best. We come to you anywhere in Greater Victoria, Saanich, Langford, Colwood, View Royal, and surrounding communities. For quick issues, we also offer secure remote support so you don’t always have to wait for a visit.

How much does it cost?

Most everyday tech issues are covered by our $79 Home Tech Visit, which includes up to 60 minutes of in-home support. If more time is needed, additional time is $30 per 30 minutes, only with your approval. Remote support is $39 for up to 30 minutes. Larger jobs fall under Specialized Services starting from $129. We explain the options before continuing. No surprise charges.

Is Beacon Home Technology just for seniors?

Not at all. We help the whole household — busy parents, students, remote workers, and grandparents. Whether it’s a gaming setup, a home office, or a smart-home upgrade, we solve real technology problems for people of every age and comfort level.

How soon can you come out?

Most appointments are booked within the same week, and we often have next-day availability. Have an urgent issue? Call us and we’ll do our best to help right away, including same-day remote support when possible.

Will my information stay private and safe?

Absolutely. We treat your privacy as our top priority. We never share your data, we secure your accounts, and we’ll happily walk you through exactly what we did and why.

What if the problem comes back?

Our work is backed by a satisfaction guarantee. If something we set up or fixed isn’t working the way it should, we’ll make it right — just get in touch and we’ll follow up.

What should I do if I think I was scammed or someone remotely accessed my computer?

Disconnect from the internet if you are worried, do not call the number shown in any pop-up, and contact your bank directly if payment or banking information was shared. Beacon can help check for common remote access tools, remove suspicious software, and review basic safety steps in plain language.
