About 6 to 9 PC Repair

Rick founded "Ask-Rick Computer Solutions" in 2001 to service the CSRA homes while working as a Network manager and architect with heavy industry in Barnwell, and in Columbia with SC BlueCross/BlueShield.
In 2004 he started 6to9 PC Repair as after-hours enterprise with the philosophy to provide quality service to the Aiken area at an affordable price during hours that were convenient for most working families - i.e. 6PM to 9PM
As 6to9 PC Repair gained in popularity Rick's managing and consulting began taking a back-seat and worked more day-time hours in the shop repairing PC's but still only opening the doors to customers from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. during the week.
Today, 6to9 PC Repair maintains that tradition to continue offering affordable IT solutions for both home and business, performing all types of hardware and software repairs to any make and model of Windows PC. 6to9 technicians continually research and train in all forms of computer repair and networking during day-time hours, then courteously explaining PC problems in terms easily understood in the evening when it is most convenient for just about everyone.
