Getting to North Lakes

Travel time from our shop

North Lakes is a straight run north from the Adelaide Street shop up the Bruce Highway, past Bracken Ridge and Deception Bay.

Good to know

North Lakes is in Moreton Bay rather than Brisbane City, and there is still no call-out fee. Some email and account jobs can be done remotely, which saves a visit entirely.

Computer repairs in North Lakes

North Lakes is a newer, planned suburb in Moreton Bay, north of Brisbane past Bracken Ridge and Deception Bay. It is mostly family housing, so the work here is household rather than business. Email and accounts come up here more than anything else. Microsoft accounts locked out or clashing with each other, Outlook that will not sync, and the confusion between the old Outlook and the New Outlook, which catches a lot of people. Several North Lakes customers run four or five mailboxes across a laptop, a desktop and a phone, and keeping them all in step is the actual job. We also connect a lot of new modems, televisions and Foxtel boxes out this way.

A recent job in North Lakes

North Lakes, June 2026. A customer had a new Telstra 5G modem and wanted the lounge room television and the Foxtel box back online. The modem was already in the lounge room, so rather than relying on Wi-Fi we used the existing Ethernet cabling to connect both the TV and the Foxtel box directly, which is steadier. Both were confirmed working before we left.

Questions from North Lakes customers

Do you charge extra to come out to North Lakes?
No. There is no call-out fee, even though North Lakes is in Moreton Bay rather than Brisbane City. It is $159 for the first hour and $2.65 a minute after that.
Can you fix email problems without coming to the house?
Often, yes. Account and mailbox problems can frequently be handled remotely, and we have done that for North Lakes customers. If it needs hands on the machine, a technician comes to you.
I have several email accounts and none of them sync properly. Can you sort that out?
Yes, and it is the thing we are called about most in North Lakes. It is usually some mix of the New Outlook, old accounts still signed in on a device nobody uses, and two Microsoft accounts clashing over the same verification number. We work through them until every device is in step.
