I received a message from KSBI owner Rob Gladden within minutes of posting my work request: personal printer repair. (The printer would not power-on even after performing all manufacturer-recommended remedies.) Rob informed that personal printer manufacturers are no longer making replacement parts, thus making repair of any problem requiring not-so-common parts (like the one in my case - a power supply card) impossible. I had read on several different websites that this was the case (i.e. replacement parts for personal printers no longer being produced). I thought perhaps companies that repair computers professionally might have access to a supply chain that common retail customers do not, but unfortunately that is not the case. Rob suggested an equivalent replacement printer available at local office-supply stores for a decent price, which I have since purchased. So although Rob was unable to repair the printer, he took the time to explain the situation and suggest a solution. That's more than I can say for the 3 other "computer/printer repair" places I had reached out to, none of whom even returned my call. I will definitely consider KSBI for future work, as owner Rob Gladden seems to have an understanding true customer service; unlike corporate printer manufacturers that don't even bother to make replacement parts anymore. Yes, I'm talking about YOU Hewlett Packard!

I was in crisis mode with a computer showing the dreaded “blue screen of death” after terrible storms likely played a part in the demise of my PC. FORTUNATELY, I got so lucky and found Rob via Thumbtack. Immediately I knew I had connected with an amazing computer repair person who exceeded all my expectations. From start to finish, their professionalism, expertise, and exceptional service and communication made the entire experience easy and stress-free. Rob’s technical knowledge and computer skills are top-notch. He led me through some preliminary tests via texts and pictures and quickly diagnosed the problem with my computer and provided an explanation of the problem and the necessary steps to fix it. (test the operating system and replace the hard drive to be on the safe side). I aways appreciate someone’s attention to detail and his was very impressive. Rob’s demeanor is friendly, kind, very patient and attentive, taking time to answer all my questions and address every concern I had. He made sure I understood the “fixes” he made, kept me informed on the progress and gave me some great advice and recommendations… He did not leave my house until he meticulously resolved every issue, ensuring that my computer was running smoothly and efficiently. Rob’s pricing is fair, transparent and worth every penny! Considering the superior work and the exceptional, fast service he provided, the price was more than reasonable. I highly recommend Rob Gladden/KSBI TECH to anyone in need of reliable and outstanding service. His technical expertise, exceptional customer service, efficiency, and fair pricing make him truly amazing. Most importantly, he earned my trust and I will definitely be reaching out to him for any future computer repair needs. THANK YOU ROB, you saved my life! Kristen B

I had a wonderful experience with KSBI. For starters, he was on time; he explained the process from A to Z, made recommendations to improve my setup, and executed the plan flawlessly. He was in and out. I would recommend him to anybody who needs a TV/sound bar install.
