Great guy, with great morals and service. Unfortunately he couldn't fix the problem I had, but he refused to charge his hourly rate after his flat fee because he couldn't repair it, despite the fact that he did spend time on disassembling and reassembling my laptop. Again, good person, very knowledgeable.

Hired on Thumbtack

I spilled tea on my laptop and one of my keys was sticking pretty badly, though the rest of the computer was fine. Merriman offered to try and clean it first, rather than immediately order a keyboard replacement, and when disassembling my laptop to access the keyboard proved to be rather complicated, he chose a less invasive approach first (which ended up being successful) rather than diving into my computer. He also let me watch, since I wanted to be able to fix my laptop if (when) I spill tea on my keyboard again. I recognized his competence and confidence, appreciated his non-invasive approach and transparency, and enjoyed talking to him in the process.

The screen on my laptop kept flickering.Vincent figured out the problem and fixed it at a very reasonable price. He kept me informed of his progress and the problems he encountered and fix it within 24 hours.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
$40 upfront for small jobs like virus removal and network assistance (if I am coming out to you), then $40 an hour. For large jobs like bulk hardware repair or extensive data recovery, it is $50 up front and $50 an hour. Though most jobs I have received on thumbtack have been same day resolution and one to two hours to complete.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have attended Computer Science classes at Austin Community College and Texas State University. I enjoy what I do and love advancing my technical knowledge on my own through my side projects as well as my work.
How did you get started doing this type of work?
I have loved computers since I first got one at age 5. Over the years I have built my own computers and solved my own computer problems through trial, error and research; gradually begining to offer help to others as I became more confident. I enjoy technology and even some of the frustrating problems that come with it, so it's a great line of work for me overall.
