Werter Arrington is fantastic! I've worked with him on multiple projects, including (1) hardwiring my home with Cat6 ethernet cable; (2) installing a patch panel; (3) installing a mesh WiFi network; and (4) running low-voltage cables and flex conduit behind walls for my TV and home entertainment center. Werter's work is always high-quality, efficient, and excellent value. He's thoughtful and creative about managing projects with the least possible disruption, like cutting into drywall. When we had to cut some holes in my living room wall to run new flex conduit, he made a great patch that was indistinguishable from the surrounding wall after we painted it. More than once, he and I have run into unforeseen problems on a project, and I thought we might not be able to get the job done. Werter has always found a way. He's knowledgeable and responsive, and he's very generous with his time over text and email to make sure he understands the project and gives the best possible advice. I really enjoy working with Werter and won't hesitate to hire him in the future. I've referred him repeatedly to friends and can't recommend him highly enough.

He replaced the touch screen not only the day he received the part but I saved over half the price I would have spent sending it back to the manufacture. I highly recommend him for his knowledge on how to repair computers and his pricing.

I have a custom PC that pooped out one afternoon and wouldn’t boot. I thought it might be the power supply, but wanted to be sure nothing else was wrong. I ran across V-TecProStop and gave them a call. Werter answered right away and from the start, he was beyond helpful. He made time for me to drop off my PC that worked for my schedule and had the issue diagnosed within the next business day. He talked me through what went wrong, the causes, provided solutions, and made sure I was comfortable with everything that he was doing. It turned out my power supply was dead and needed to be replaced. I was extremely pleased with the amount of care that went into his work. He even offered additional insight on other parts to upgrade, such as RAM and my SSD, to future proof my PC and get better performance for gaming. His thoroughness is top notch and was very willing to explain anything I had questions about. If you want a trustworthy service that goes above and beyond in repairs, optimization, upgrades, you name it, V-TecProStop is the place. I highly recommend!

It was a top notch security program protection for viruses. I've been using the service for 3 years now. He's prompt and he makes arrangements as soon as he is available. He works hard, run the test, and did a thorough job. He's conscious of being compliant, he always wear a mask. He's conscientious and he makes sure that he did a good job.

Werter Arrington far exceeded my expectations. He involved my grandson in the fixes, showed him exactly what he was doing and why the computer didn't work. He also showed him how to do the fixes and let him do some of the repairs. We got more than a fixed computer; we got a great lesson in computer hardware and electronics.
Description of Work
My grandson is building his own computer and I was helping him. We got it all put together but it didn't turn on. We tried some fixes but nothing worked. So I decided professional help and guidance was needed. I didn't just want to drop it off in a shop and pick it up; I wanted us to know what was done to fix the problems and why.

Very smoothly and quickly.
Description of Work
Werter Arrington did terrific work in helping us select our new home computer, installing it, hooking it up to the printer, and making all the updates. He also showed us several programs that we will benefit from, too. We asked him lots of questions about a range of computer related issues that went beyond the installation and he was very knowledgeable about cost effective options. He got our wi fi connection going again by recommending and installing a wifi extender. The bottom line is he provided excellent service.

Wow what great work! I had given up on my MacBook completely because it wouldn't turn on. I thought it was dead - new battery, new power supply and I still couldn't make it work. I took it to Apple's Genius Bar (Apple's idea of a service center) and after they told me my motherboard was shot and I was out of warranty. So before paying the ridiculous repair I searched the internet in hopes of getting a second opinion. I was lucky and found Werter. Once he looked at it he determined my power port was shot and once he had the part and got it swapped and like magic I was up and running again for pennies in comparison to the Apple quote. And if that wasn't enough he did some other stuff I don't understand but it cleaned my Mac up and now it starts and runs faster, almost like new. I will never take my Mac to anyone else ever again! Thanks Werter for the awesome job!

Werter and his team were in and out. They took the time to explain the issue, teach me how to resolve it in the future, and were willing to answer any questions I may have had. Every aspect of the support was quick, professional, and affordable. I can't speak highly enough about the service I received. I highly recommend V-TEchProStop for, like the motto states, any of your computer and networking needs.
Description of Work
My computer was not responsive. It would turn on but no output reached my monitor, keyboard, or mouse. I had tried everything I knew but didn't have the time or knowledge to finish the job. I contacted the team on a Sunday and they were here within a couple of days, at my home, and ready to fix the issue.

I would recommend Werter to anyone needing help with PC set up. He was prompt in replying and stuck with me until everything was working. He was patient and helpful in solving numerous questions I had in getting used to an unfamiliar system. He is a highly skilled professional who knows his stuff and takes care of his customers.

We are very happy with the work done by these guys and wouldn't hesitate to call them again.
Description of Work
The guys at V-TecProStop (Werter Arrington and company) did a great job handling multiple projects for us. Werter upgraded and installed additional memory in several systems as well as cleaned up a couple of buggy, virus infested laptops. He also transferred all of our very important files from a desktop that had caused us multiple problems in the past. All in all he was responsible for bringing 3 iMACS, 2 laptops and 1 server back to great functionality. Werter is also very good at walking you through the diagnoses of your system problems. He then gives excellent feedback and recommendations on how to keep your systems clean.

For someone like me who is not technologically savvy, Werter is like the best possible computer handyman you can have. He has fast earned the top spot on my speed dial. Several of my friends have used him and they feel the same way. You cannot go wrong with Werter.

Fix multiple items on my computer. Fixed my connection to my router. Networked my desktop with all other wireless devices in my house. He can do anything! And he's always available by phone to walk you through any issue that he showed you that you might have forgotten.

Werter is definitely the guy to call for computer service, whatever the may be. He is very capable, knowledgeable, articulate, and affordable. He is completely committed to customer satisfaction and goes beyond the problems at hand to enhance customer computer usage and experiences, a big plus for people like me with limited computer knowledge and capabilities.

When my computer became infected with a virus, I was fortunate to find Werter, of v-tecprostop. Werter's quick response, as well as the level of courtesy and professionalism he displayed when he repaired my PC was impressive. He is extremely knowledgeable and clearly very skilled, but took the time to explain what he was doing, in a way that I could understand, every step of the way. He was very thorough in diagnosing, explaining, and fixing the problem, but completed the job quickly and efficiently. Based on my experience, I would definitely recommend Werter's services to a friend, and will not hesitate to contact him for computer repairs in the future. Werter sets a high standard of service. I wish all service providers would provide the same high-quality service to their clients.

He connected to my computer and I sat in front of the computer and watched everything he did and then he explained why he did them and if something happens in the future what I could do to help with the problem. He always assures me to call him at any time if there is something I am concerned with no matter what it is.
