Browser warnings, expired or missing certificates.

DNS or domain problems

The domain does not point where it should.

Database problems

How it works

From your request to the work

  1. Tell us what you need

    Sign in and fill in the short form for this service. It asks no passwords.

  2. We review your request

    Our team reads it and may ask you questions on your request page.

  3. You receive a quote

    The price, what it covers and the date it is valid until. Nothing is charged until you accept it.

  4. Accept and pay

    Accepting creates an invoice, which you pay from your account.

  5. We do the work

    If the work needs access to your server, you send the details through a secure form after payment. You follow the progress in your account.

Price

Price on request

Every job is different, so we quote each one. Your quote shows the price, what it covers and the date it is valid until. Nothing is charged until you accept it.

What the form asks

  • A short summary and a description of the job
  • Which server (one with us, or one hosted elsewhere)
  • What kind of problem it is and when it started
  • Error messages, copied exactly
  • Anything that changed recently
  • Whether you have a recent backup
  • Whether we may restart services
  • How urgent it is
  • The operating system, control panel and root access

No passwords.

Access, handled safely

Your access details stay protected

We ask for access only when the work needs it, and only after you accept the quote and pay.

  • The request form asks no passwords.
  • Access details go through a secure form in your account, never by e-mail.
  • They are stored encrypted. Passwords and keys are not shown again once sent, and never appear in an e-mail.
  • Only team members with a dedicated permission can open them, and every time they do, it is logged.
  • Tip: create a temporary account or password for the job and remove it when the work is done. You can ask us to delete the details after completion.

Questions

Common questions

The form asks whether we may restart services while we fix the problem, or should ask you first. Your answer goes to the team working on it.

What you see, when it started, any error messages copied exactly, and anything that changed recently. The form asks for each, so our team can quote for the actual problem.

No. The form asks whether you have a recent one, so our team knows before any work begins.

We quote every job. After you send your request, our team sends you a quote with the price, what it covers and the date it is valid until. Nothing is charged until you accept it.

Not to send a request: the form asks no passwords. If the work needs access to your server, you send the access details after you accept the quote and pay, through a secure form. They are stored encrypted, and each time a member of our team views them, it is recorded.

Yes. Choose "A server hosted elsewhere" on the form and give its address.

On your request page you can ask for changes to the quote, or decline it. Declining costs nothing.

Yes. The form lets you choose Normal or Urgent, which tells our team which requests to look at first.
