Who we are

Twenty years of fixing things properly

We're a small IT consulting business in Plettenberg Bay with a client base spanning Plettenberg Bay, Knysna, and the Greater Garden Route. Established in 2003, The Computer Guy has been a trusted name for PC repair and IT services across the region for over twenty years — we were here before fibre, and we're still here now.

We help small businesses with every aspect of their workflow, and make sure everybody else has the right IT setup and a decent connection. Every client gets a solution that fits their actual needs — practical technology that just works.

From troubleshooting to advanced networking, our services cover it all: quick repairs, new business setups, business email and hosting, fast fibre, and ongoing IT support. No call-outs to faraway cities, no impersonal help desks. Just a real person on the other end who knows your area, your needs, and your equipment.

  2. We diagnose and quote We look first and give you a written quote before any work starts. We'll tell you honestly if a repair isn't worth it.
  3. You approve Nothing happens until you say so. No surprises on the invoice, no work you didn't ask for.
