FAQ

Can you do this remotely?

Often yes — especially for homelabs, Home Assistant, monitoring, and cloud/DNS work. On-site is available for cabling and physical installs.

Do you work with existing setups?

Absolutely. The goal is to improve stability and clarity without ripping everything apart unless it’s necessary.

What do you deliver?

A working outcome + notes: what changed, where it lives, how to operate it, and what to watch.

What about credentials?

We’ll use a simple checklist for handover. You keep ownership and access to everything.
