BQV Consulting LLC

Computer Repair, Computer Sales, Computer Training

About us

My name is Brian Valen. My passion for technology began at the age of 10 when my parents purchased a used IBM. By the age of 13 my mother was driving me to people's homes and businesses to fix their computers. While I did this all throughout high school and college it wasn't until after college that BQV Consulting, LLC was born. Through years of hands-on experience along with a degree in Information Sciences from The Pennsylvania State University, I have become a specialist in technology consulting, computer repair, and maintenance. What does this mean? It means that your technology issue will be resolved quickly, efficiently, and in most cases on the first visit. I stand behind all of my work 100%. Bring your business to me. I know that you will be impressed by the quality of my service. What can I do for you? Here is a short list of ways I can help: Slow computer? I can speed things up. Need help now? Remote Support available. Not backing up? I can install a backup solution that fits your needs and budget. Install new hardware peripherals and upgrade your computer. Repair hardware problems. Install or upgrade Windows Operating System, and other software. Restore lost data and recover data from a damaged hard-drive. Poor Wi-Fi in your house? I can cover your house from top to bottom. Wired and Wireless Networking Expert. Clear viruses, trojans, adware, and spyware, all while saving your data. Need a TV installed or wall mounted? Home and small business structured wiring. And more... Just ask! Most issues can be resolved in one visit, I carry almost all parts, tools, and equipment to solve your emergency quickly and correctly the first time.

Description of Work: My computer had many viruses and was running slowly. I was considering getting a new computer. I called to get an estimate on cleaning it up. The service was reasonably priced, so I thought I would try BQV. Bryan not only cleaned up my computer but also but in more ram for the same money I would have to paid for a new computer. I am totally pleased with his service. He came promptly and did the work in 90 minutes.. I would not hesitate to use his services again

Very well.
Description of Work: Brian, BQV, scheduled an appointment as soon as I called. He spent some time cleaning up my computer and then upgraded the memory in the computer in response to my complaint that the computer was very slow and would freeze often. I was very pleased.

It went great
Description of Work: I got some sort of computer virus on my home computer. I called Brian on Tuesday. May 31 and we made the appointment for June 1. Brian was on time and very friendly. He fixed my computer. I found that one internet connection on one of my user profiles was not working. I called Brian and within 1/2 hour he logged onto to my computer and fixed the connection. I was very satisified and I would highly recommend and I would use BQV again.

See description above.
Description of Work: Competent, Careful, Client Friendly (no flibberty jargon) describe BQV Consulting! My Microsoft Vista operating system was not able to operate my Verizon Webmail. Verizon technical support failed to cure problem. Brian V. opened the bowels of the myriad programs stored in my system, deleted old and extraneous overlapping programs (an outdated JAVA program was a culprit), downloaded up-to-date programs, and he gave advice about using Microsoft Vista. Problem solved; computer operates efficiently now. Job well done.& courteously.
