Everyday Assistance

Everyday Assistance in Chilliwack

Not sure who to call? Call us first.

Some days it’s the computer. Some days it’s a new phone, a confusing internet bill, or a pop-up that says your computer has a virus. And some days you just want someone you trust to look into something for you.

That’s what Everyday Assistance is for. Tek Solutions has helped people in Chilliwack and across the Fraser Valley with their technology since 2001, and we’ve always had a soft spot for seniors and home clients. So if you’re not sure who to call, call us first. We’ll listen, help where we can, and give you an honest answer.

Monday to Friday, 8 AM to 4 PM. We’re often out helping people, so please leave a message if we don’t answer.

How we can help

Everyday help, from people you can trust

You don’t need to know the right word for the problem. Just tell us what’s going on in your own words, and we’ll take it from there.

Getting help setting up a new laptop and phone

Technology Help

Technology is supposed to make life easier. When it doesn’t, we’re here to sort it out patiently and without the jargon.

  • Computers and laptops, both PC and Apple: slow, stuck, broken, or brand new and still in the box
  • Setting up a new computer and moving your files and photos over
  • Wi-Fi and home internet that drops out or doesn’t reach every room
  • Printers that won’t print
  • Viruses, strange pop-ups and “your computer is infected” warnings
  • Lost files or photos. We do data recovery in-house.

Research

Don’t have the time, or not sure where to start? Tell us what you’re trying to figure out. We’ll look into it and explain what we found in plain language, so you can decide.

  • Which computer, tablet or printer fits the way you’ll actually use it
  • Whether your old computer is worth repairing or upgrading, or it’s time to replace it
  • Comparing internet, TV and phone plans, and checking whether you’re paying too much

Home Help & Trusted Advice

Not every question is about a computer. Sometimes you just want a second opinion from someone local who will tell you straight.

  • Setting up home networks, routers and Wi-Fi extenders
  • Looking over your internet, TV and phone bills. If you’re paying too much, we’ll help you sort it out.
  • A second opinion before a big tech purchase or someone else’s quote

Can't Always Be There for Mom or Dad?

Maybe you live in another city. Maybe you work all day and can’t get over every time the printer stops working or the TV remote “stops working”. Or maybe your mom or dad calls you with a tech problem you just can’t fix over the phone.

We can be the local help you trust. Call or send us a message, tell us what’s going on and how your parent likes to be helped, and we’ll take it from there.

We're local.

We can visit your parent at home in Chilliwack, or help over the internet.

One number to remember.

Your parent can call us directly at 604-847-0857. You can reach us toll-free at 1-855-855-0857 from anywhere.

Patient, respectful help.

We work with your parent, not around them.
