01 / What we do

Someone who specs your kit, builds your systems, and shows up when it matters.

Hardware

Spec & source

Right kit at the right price, from trusted UK suppliers. Honest advice on what you actually need, not what makes the biggest invoice.

Software

Clean builds

Debloated machines, configured for the way you actually work. Apps installed, backups set up, everything documented.

Support

Stay close

People who know your setup and stay close after handover. Same names, every time.

02 / How it works

Four steps, no surprises.

Step 01

Discovery

A free first conversation. What you do, what's broken, what you actually need. No pitch.

Step 02

Specification

Written proposal with kit, costs and timelines. Approved before anything is ordered or started.

Step 03

Build

Hardware sourced and configured. Apps installed, backups in place, everything documented.

Step 04

Handover

Walked through, written up, handed over. If something's not right after, we sort it.

03 / Why this works

What you get that you won't get elsewhere.

No middlemen

The person you call is the person who built it

You won't be explaining your setup to a stranger every time. Same name, every conversation.

Plain English

Decisions explained, not hidden behind jargon

You'll understand why we're choosing what we're choosing. Specs come with reasons.

Documented

Your systems written up properly

Everything documented so you're not dependent on us to understand your own setup. That's the point.

No upsell

If you don't need it, we'll say so

Honest about scope. Honest about value. We'd rather lose a job than sell something that doesn't fit.

Let's see if it's worth taking further.

The first meeting is always free. We'll figure out what you actually need before anyone commits to anything.

Services & pricing

Hardware procurement & clean builds.

Everything starts with a free discovery meeting to understand what you actually need. From there, the core service breaks down like this. Clear scope, clear price, nothing hidden.

Service What you get Price
Consultation & spec Understanding exactly what you need. Use case, users, budget. Honest advice, no upselling. £40 / system
Sourcing Right kit at the right price from a trusted UK supplier. Supply chain issues flagged upfront, not at delivery. Included
Standard clean build Debloated, configured, apps installed, backup set up. Full written documentation included so you understand your own machine. From £75 / system
Premium clean build Everything in the standard build, plus custom menu software tailored to your workflow. For when off-the-shelf doesn't quite fit. £75 + add-on
Build standards

What you get with every build.

01

16GB RAM minimum

Non-negotiable. Justified on longevity grounds, a system that still feels fast in four years, not eighteen months.

02

Debloat-first

Telemetry killed, junk removed, apps installed deliberately one by one. The machine you turn on is the one you actually need.

03

Documentation pack

Every build comes with a full written documentation pack. No exceptions. You understand your own systems without depending on us.

04

Two-week follow-up

We check in two weeks after handover. Builds trust, catches issues early, keeps the relationship from going cold.

Also available

Beyond the core build.

  • 01
    IT workflow improvements Fixing broken processes, forms, and systems. Often the answer isn't more software, it's the right software configured right.
  • 02
    SEO & WordPress management Content publishing and search optimisation for sites that need to be findable, not just functional.
  • 03
    AI & digital training Practical sessions for nonprofits and small teams. What the tools can actually do, what to be cautious of, how to make them useful.

Not sure which fits? Just ask.

The first conversation is free. Send a quick description of what you're trying to solve and we'll work out the right shape from there.

About

An independent UK practice for clients who'd rather know exactly who they're working with.

Tinker Wit IT is a two-person team. You get in touch, you talk to one of us directly, and that's who specs your kit, builds your systems, and hands it over properly.

The short version.

We get organisations set up with technology that actually works. Specced right, built right, documented, and handed over ready to use.

Between us, formal training in AI & machine learning, digital marketing, and Google's AI professional programme. Beyond that, years of doing the work often before anyone thought to call it a job.

Where this comes from.

Both of us have been around computers since long before we should have been. Tinkering, breaking, fixing, rebuilding. These days that curiosity runs deeper local AI, home labs, workflows that get cleaner every time we look at them. It doesn't stay at home.

That's what makes this work better. Genuinely wanting to know how something works, not just whether it boots.

What working together is actually like.

We'll tell you what you need, not what sounds impressive. If something's out of scope or not worth the money, we'll say so. Every job gets documented properly, so you're never dependent on us to understand your own systems.

We don't disappear after handover. If something's not right, we sort it. The first conversation is always free. No pitch, no pressure just figure out if it's worth taking further.

Curious whether we'd be a good fit?

Send a short message about what you're working on. No commitment, no pitch. Just an honest conversation.
