I have had a hardware problem with a less-than-a-year old HP laptop, as the case has been separating, leaving the machine interior exposed. Though the machine was purchased through HP, they were not helpful at all, so I was looking for a local repair shop and found Steve on Angie's List. I sent an email on W night describing the problem, and he responded almost right away with very helpful guidance - pointing out that he's seen / heard of this issue with my model machine, describing the likely scope of the problem, the likelihood / ease of repair (sadly, not easy), and even giving me the name of a local shop who might be able to help, as it was too extensive for his usual range of service. He really provided a bit of respite in a very frustrating situation (I've attempted contact with 4 other local persons / shops with no helpful responses), and I'm grateful, as a lot of vendors would just not respond if they couldn't complete the service. I will definitely contact him again if I need assistance with computer-related service.
Description of Work: Responded within an hour to an evening online service request, even though he couldn't provide the specific repair.

I left Mr Mutchler an email in the evening of Aug 25, 2014, and by 10:40 AM on Aug 26, 2014, he responded that he would be in the area and asked if he could come then. He came after a visit to another individual in Ballwin. Mr. Mutchler arrived at the expected time, and within an hour had my computer working at maximum efficiency. He removed several competing software programs which were slowing the computer's efficiency, enabled several programs which had somehow been disabled, and ran diagnostics. He offered me good advice on how to keep the computer at maximum efficiency and answered scores of questions I had regarding software programs---which internet security programs and anti-malware programs were in his estimation the best at preventing future problems with viruses, hackers, worms, unwanted cookies, etc. He was very knowledgeable and seemed to take all of my questions as a matter of fact. I felt his charges for his services were very reasonable. I definitely will call Mr. Mutchler again. He was very professional, very knowledgeable, and very helpful. I will also mention him to family and friends in the neighborhood who need computer services within the Ballwin, West County area. Thank you, Mr Mutchler, I appreciate your services and your expertise.
Description of Work: Updated computer, removed unnecessary software programs, and offered advice on most effective software programs for internet security and malware protection.

My laptop crashed, and I called him for advice. By phone, he offered some suggestions for me to try myself. Then, when I was unable to repair the problem, he came and picked up the laptop, took it to his office and promised to call within 48 hours. When he was unable to repair the problem (damaged sectors on the hard drive which had become unreadable), he admitted it and returned the computer to me at no charge. He referred me to a local merchant for a reasonably priced replacement unit.
Description of Work: Diagnostic and attempted repair.

Steve helped us get rid of a virus on our computer on one occasion, and tranferred all data to a new computer on another occasion. In both situations, he did an excellent job and was available for follow up to make sure everything was working properly. I felt his price was fair and he was very responsive.

Description of Work: My computer was extremely slow. I had taken it to the dealer and it came back just as slow and with additional problems. I also had a new cell phone that I wanted to sync with my computer and I didn't seem to have the proper software to use this feature. I contacted Steve and he made an appointment to come out on Sat. at 11:30. He was punctual, pleasant, and very knowledgeable but explained everything he was doing in a way that a computer neophyte like me could understand. He was able to speed up the computer and offer a suggestion on how to get an aggravating pop-up to go away. Even with no past experience with cell phones, he was able to get my computer and phone to sync. I have had a couple issues since our apt. and he has promptly answered my e-mails to him with suggestions and step-by-step instructions to correct the problems. I am very happy with his service and would definitely use him again.

Steve was very prompt in answering calls, even if he was out of town. He kept all appointments, even during the holiday season. He made three trips to our house, plus provided service from his location. He is very professional and reasonably priced.
Description of Work: Our computer was corrupted and was unable to connect to the provider. Steve diagnosed the problem, got us reconnected, and suggested changing to different a provider for the internet and security. After installing new software from new providers, we had trouble getting my wife's email. The problems were resolved.
