Fast, efficient, professional service. Very appreciative of Ian’s efforts in restoring a failed hard drive during lockdown. All options were fully explained and the functional laptop returned the following day. Highly recommended.

PC Patch was first established in 2004 under the name of MetratonIT operating as an online shop selling products over the internet, operated from home on a part time basis. In 2005 the decision was made to take the business to a new level with the purchase of the computer shop in Petone. Along with this move a name change was necessary due to the difficulty of pronouncing the original name. And PC Patch was born.
Initially the business involved husband & wife team of Neil and Richelle. As time moved on and word spread, PC Patch grew to employing 4 full-time people and 3 or 4 part-time people in 2009.
July 2009 saw PC Patch move from the old shop (in which a computer shop had operated for 20 odd years) to new premises directly across the road in Jackson St. The shop provided much better space and also a much more welcoming environment to shop in.
In 2018 the shop moved to Cuba Street, Alicetown and Neil and Max continued to provide computer service to the region.
In August 2021 the business was sold to Ian Irvine.
Ian and Max continue on the legacy started by Neil and Richelle to provide computer supply and support to the existing customers and new ones.
