1professional, friendly, knowledgeable, reasonably priced, and skilled. He was a tremendous help, and it gave me immediate piece of mind when I met him. I wish I could say more good things about him. I would encourage anyone I knew in need of pc repairs or maintenance to seek him out.

Chris Epifano - Edwardsville, NS

5Richard installed a new hard drive and a re-installation of windows 10 for over $150 cheaper than the Geek Squad would have charged me. Picked my laptop up the following day to find out he installed an antivirus at no extra charge :) Fast, reliable and extremely friendly!!! I would recommend anyone to go there for their computer needs.

7we had picked up a very nasty bug with our laptop to the point is was not useable it had destroyed the hard drive. I thought it would be better to trash it but my wife found the Compware Tech Solutions ad online and she set up an appointment to have it looked at. Always the skeptic I dropped off just to see if there was anything that could be done. Honestly there is no where out there that you could find better service. Once he looked at it Richard called and explained exactly what was wrong with it and ran through the process he would do to fix it. He will do nothing until you are comfortable with the process so there are no surprises with the repair build at the end. Very pleased with the service he makes you feel like your a friend not a customer. very comfortable setting .and you will have a hard time trying to find better prices. So in a nutshell Excellent service, Excellent prices, I would definitely recommend using him
Reginald Reid - Sydney, NS
8Wonderful. Quick and excellent customer service.

Darlene Gosse - Sydney, NS
10I got a Microsoft scam virus on my computer. I called one place and they wanted $ 195.00 dollars to fix my computer. Well I figure I wouldn't have a computer again to use because I don't have that kind of money. Well I went on Kijiji Kijiji to see if I could find somebody with a more reasonable price. After calling a few places I found a very nice gentleman name Richard Dulvy. Richard was very polite, very professional,helpful and his prices are very reasonable compare to other places I called. Richard quickly accessed the issue and provided me solutions plus more. I highly recommended anybody with a problem with their computer to give Richard a call.
Dolly Roston - Sydney, NS
11I brought my computer to Richard after reading the favorable reviews on his website. I can confirm that all those positive reviews are warranted. I had a trojan virus unknowingly placed on my computer, leaving my computer completely unprotected and open to further fraudulent interference. Richard promptly cleaned my computer of the offensive virus, installed protection and provided me with written analysis of what happened to my computer. Richard was the most helpful computer technician I have ever experienced, very professional and charged considerably less than what I have come to expect from other computer specialists. I will continue to use Richard's prompt, professional, effective and affordable service in the future. Excellent!
Ann MacLean - Ingonish, NS

13Very professional and helpful service provided. Quickly assessed issues and provided solutions.
Rev. Marion MacKay - North Sydney, NS
14Richard is not only our computer guy but a good friend. He is always available when we have a problem. He helped us pick the kind of computer we needed for our office and set it up with all the programs and all the updates.
He makes things simple so we can understand. Very pleased with this company
Lorraine Rideout - Sydney, NS
15I thought that I had lost all of my data that was located on my external hard drive. It stopped working and I immediately searched for a computer repair shop. I came across Compware Technical Incorporated and decided to give Richard a call. He was able to retrieve all of my data from my hard drive, and he was very nice and reasonable with pricing. I also had a computer that was not working at the time as well and thought that it was broken for good, but he was also able to fix my laptop as well and it works like new again!! I strongly recommend calling Richard for your repairs/upgrades... He is nice, very intelligent and has very reasonable prices!!
Isabel Phillips - Sydney, NS
16My screen went black and then a microsoft 1-888 number appeared, thinking it was safe, I called. Wrong thing to do, because since you are seeking help by dialing the number, it is automatic permission for them to ask innocuous questions and gain control of the computer AND ask for a lot of money to fix it. A good friend told me about Richard, and he repaired the virus and gave me very helpful information. When I got the computer back it was like new, what a relief! I was pleased with the professional manner and skill set and knowledge of Richard. I will recommend him highly, because this level of service is not available in local shops here.
Marianne Myatt - Sydney, NS
17Great service, friendly and professional. My LCD display was cracked on a brand new phone and it's just like new now.
Joe Prestara - Sydney, NS
18Great service..highly recommend him and he went out his way to fix my husband's phone!
Elise Prestara - Sydney, NS
19We have brought our home computer, laptop, and my cell phone to Richard and he was very reasonable and everything works great. We would recommend his work to any one that needs any electronics fixed. It would have cost us a lot more if we took it to other people. We did take a note book to someone before I knew him and it would have been cheaper for us to get another one and the person that fixed it never told us what was wrong with it and 5 weeks later we got it back plus a $200.00 bill to go with it needless to say we never dealt with that person again. He is also very professional and honest.
Laura Dupont - Sydney, NS
20Provided quick service and problems were addressed successfully for reasonable rates. Friendly technician.

Eddie Ball - Sydney, NS
25My wife and I are extremely pleased with the service on our 2 Laptops from Richard. He is very prompt, professional and so knowledgeable in troubleshooting issues. Just very recently Richard helped us not only late on a Sunday night, but when I couldn't resolve the issue by text instruction, he made an in house call to fix our laptop on a Holiday. Thank-you again Richard !!!! 5 stars +++++
David MacDonald - Sydney, NS
26Excellent service at a reasonable price. Richard is very professional , friendly and reassuring. My phone just works great now, all thanks to him.
Lipi Padsala - Sydney, NS
27I took my new computer to Richard for set up. I found him to be very professional and polite. He had great knowledge and was very thorough and explanatory. All questions, and I had many, were answered in detail and with patience. He was flexible with appointment times and his bill was very reasonable. After our transaction he called to see if I had further questions and to confirm everything was working as it should. I am thankful for his expertise and skill. He was a pleasure to deal with. I would not hesitate to make the 100 km trip again for Richard's excellent service.
Aileen Shannon - Isle Madame, NS
28We have been using Richard for both our Business and Personal Computers for years he has solved every problem we had. His prices are the lowest we ever had. We would be lost without him.
Carlo Nardocchio (Owner: Highlands Automart) - Sydney, NS
29I was looking for someone honest to look at my desktop and 2 laptops, and chose compwaretechnical.ca based on the ratings and positive reviews. Richard offered the professional and honest advice that I was seeking and provided me with different options, which helped me make the best decision according to my budget and my needs. I was very impressed with his work, particularly with my laptop. The change and improvement was remarkable. Richard is very reasonable, responsive and helpful, pleasant to deal with, and goes above and beyond. I highly recommend!
Aileen Fahey - Glace Bay, NS
30Richard was a pleasant guy, and very easy to deal with. When I needed someone to format my laptop’s hard drive and install a new operating system, he got the job done and had the computer back to me within a few hours.....and at a reasonable price. I have no problems recommending him to anyone.
Wayne Hiscock - Sydney, NS
31I had the opportunity meet Richard where I was working in a casual job and Richard was great in helping me learn my job, Great guy.
I had two desk top computers which where old technology, and he tried, but told me it was a no go with todays technology. He went looking and found what I needed for the purposes I wanted . No gaming just the simple things I do , he listened to My needs and found what would to the trick for me , he Listened.
My new computer is great, fast and he even installed an anti-virus , ALL at an affordable price for my personal situation. he will always work on my computer needs , I trust him.
If you have a computer problem I would highly recommend him . Thanks Richard !Bruce Florian - Sydney, NS

Marlene Morrison - Sydney, NS
34I spilled water on my laptop and figured I had ruined it and lost all of my pictures and coursework. I called Richard and brought my laptop to him. He was able to fix the computer, restore all of my data and cleaned up the hard drive and keyboard. He did all of this within a few hours! He did such a great job. Super helpful, professional and a nice guy. Definitely recommend!
Amanda Fernandes - Sydney, NS
35Extremely helpful, Great local business owner!
Derek Gentile - Sydney, NS
36Though I depend on my computer for my work I know very little about how it works. When I had a complete system failure Richard quickly diagnosed the problem and explained it to me in a clear and easy to understand way.
For me he has the three most important qualities I look for in an IT support person: kindness, efficiency and patience.
Daniel MacIvor - Sydney, NS
37As others have said, kindness, like in older days, efficiency, as In completely understanding of problems, even long distance, , and most important when dealing with seniors, patience, I have met very few people in my life, with this kind of patience! No put downs, just encouragement, and teaching! Thank you so much Richard! I don't know what I enjoyed more, being able to use my tablet again, or just having those hours with you on the phone! I learned a lot! Blessings, and prayers, to cover you and your family, and business!
Mary Treige - Edmonton, AB
38Richard is awesome to deal with, I will recommend him to anyone I know.

39Best computer service I have ever experienced. Professional and quick. Highly recommend.
Clarence Routledge - Glace Bay, NS
40I've had all the computer work I ever needed complete through Richard.
I brought my laptop to him as it was running very slow & outdated a few years. He recommended a new SSD card, which I then picked up and he installed to which the laptop ran brand new in no time at all!
Also, later down the road I bought a gaming computer second-hand and Richard was there to help get it running as if it were new and installed a new GPU as well. He was always on standby to help. Even after a few months when I needed to update the graphics card, he was able to help remotely and have it set up in no time.
Richard definitely is my first choice with any computer work. He fixes anything I bring to him in a timely manner and always provides polite & enthusiastic service.Zachery Head - New Waterford, NS
41My computer is used 6 to 10 hours a day and I was trying figure out how to get it clean up. I asked Richard if he could do it remotely and we planned a time that suited my schedule.
What a great service, quick, remotely, perfect scheduling and reasonably priced.
Thanks Richard

Contacted Richard Wednesday morning and he was here Wednesday afternoon....quickly fixed the issue with printer not recognizing network.
My older desktop wasn't seeing network and after he called Eastlink issue persisted, so he suggested a new boosted for my computer as a short term fix until I can purchase a new system..Very personable and explained what he was doing all the way through

Richard diagnosed the problem that was preventing my laptop from booting up. He installed a new SSD and was able to retrieve all my data. He also installed Windows for me, put all my files back on my laptop, as well as setup OneDrive for me so that my documents would automatically sync to the cloud in the event of another crash.
Thanks to Richard, my laptop is working just like new, and I have all my data.
