Galvo's IT Solutions, serving Toronto from Nulkaba
Computer Repairs & IT Support in Toronto NSW
Patient, plain-English computer help for Toronto homes and small businesses on the western side of Lake Macquarie.
- Free diagnosis
- Price before any work starts
- On-site, remote or drop-off
Toronto sits on the western side of Lake Macquarie, a lakeside town with a mix of older homes and newer ones, and plenty of residents who have chosen it for a quieter life by the water. For many of them the computer is how they bank, book appointments, pay bills and keep up with family, so when it stops working it matters.
Steven Galvin runs Galvo's IT Solutions, a one-man IT business based in Nulkaba, next to Cessnock. Toronto is further from his base than the Hunter Valley towns, so most software problems are handled remotely, visits are booked ahead, and drop-off is always an option. Diagnosis is free and you get a clear price before any work begins.
Help for Toronto households and small businesses
Toronto is part of the City of Lake Macquarie, on the western shore of the lake. Alongside the homes there are shops, services and people running small businesses from home, often with one computer doing everything.
A lot of the calls from towns like Toronto come from retirees and older residents who want help without being made to feel silly. Common needs are setting up a new computer and moving everything across from the old one, being shown how to do the few things you use most, getting email working again, and checking whether a message or phone call is a scam. Steven goes at your pace and explains things in plain English.
Scams are worth a special mention. Fake tech support calls, pop-ups that claim your computer is infected, and emails pretending to be from your bank all turn up regularly. If you think you have been caught, Steven can connect remotely, remove anything that was installed, check whether anyone still has access and tell you which passwords should be changed.
Lakeside homes also bring Wi-Fi problems, with the modem at one end of the house and the favourite chair at the other. Those are sorted on a booked visit, while hardware faults like a dead laptop or failing drive can be dropped off or collected when Steven comes out.

IT help in Toronto: common questions
Can you teach me how to use my new computer?
Yes. Steven can set it up, bring your files and email across from the old one, and walk you through the things you actually use, at your pace. That can be done on a booked visit, or remotely once the computer is connected, with Steven guiding you on your own screen.
Someone rang saying my computer had a virus and I let them in. What should I do?
Turn the computer off or unplug the internet, and call your bank straight away if you gave out card or banking details. Then call Steven on 0413 604 477. He can check the computer remotely, remove what the caller installed and help you change the passwords that matter. It happens to a lot of people.
Will you come out to Toronto?
Yes, for jobs that need it, such as Wi-Fi or a new computer setup. Toronto is further from Nulkaba than the Hunter Valley towns, so visits are booked ahead. Most software problems are quicker to fix remotely, and you can drop a computer off if you prefer. Tayla Parker's Google review calls Steven "very friendly and easy to talk to".
