IT Support for Small Businesses in London: What to Expect

2 min readLondon & local business

Small-business IT support covers the practical, day-to-day technology a business relies on: computers, email, accounts, networking, backups and basic security. Much of it can be delivered remotely, which is why Linux Stewards can support businesses in London without needing to be on site.

What is included

  • Windows PCs and laptops — setup, software, slow-computer review, printer and account problems.
  • Macs and MacBooks — setup, software and common day-to-day issues.
  • Linux — our genuine specialism, for businesses that already use it or want to.
  • Email — business email setup, domain email, DNS and delivery.
  • Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace — practical setup where appropriate.
  • Networking — Wi-Fi, routers and basic connectivity.
  • Backup — a sensible plan for the files the business cannot lose.
  • Security basics — passwords, MFA and sensible device hardening.

Remote support, clearly stated

A large share of this work is remote: screen-sharing, remote access where you approve it, and working from a clear description plus a screenshot or error message. Remote support is often the fastest way to resolve a problem without waiting for a visit.

How small jobs are priced

  • £12 — a genuinely tiny task such as a simple file conversion or image resize.
  • £19 — a small bounded fix such as a simple formula or document formatting problem.
  • £29 — practical work such as software setup, a simple DNS or email issue, or straightforward PC help.
  • £39 — the first technical step such as basic network diagnosis or a slightly deeper remote investigation.

These are starting prices for straightforward, well-scoped jobs. The final scope and price are confirmed before work begins.

What to send us

Describe the problem in plain English, send a screenshot or error message where you have one, and tell us what the machine or account is. That is usually enough to identify the next useful step.
