About Nick

Hi, I'm Nick.

I'm Nicholas Sakadelis. Everyone calls me Nick. I live in Washingtonville. People around here want a tech who shows up, fixes it, and explains it straight. That's what I do.

My background:

  • A.A.S. in IT Networking, SUNY Orange. Coursework built on Cisco's CCNA material: routing, switching, subnetting, VLANs, and network security, with hands-on Cisco gear.
  • Field Service Technician, Marlboro High School. Managed about 600 Chromebooks in Google Admin, including enrollment, policies, updates, and repairs. Ran network cabling across the building.
  • Technical Support, managed IT provider for medical offices. Supported medical offices where downtime isn't an option. Managed Active Directory users and passwords, supported Citrix and remote desktop, and replaced network switches.
  • IT Intern, Chester Academy. Worked on and learned the school's Ubiquiti wireless network and security camera system.
  • Content creator. I built my own online brand from scratch: 78K+ followers and 100M+ views across my platforms and UGC advertisements. I run my own streaming and recording setup, so I know cameras, mics, capture gear, and upload speeds firsthand.

I also do gaming and streaming setups. If your ping spikes every night at 8, I know where to look.

Your grandmother's printer or your office network, I treat it like my own.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Remote help or a house call?

Try remote first. It's $80/hour, no travel fee, and often same day. If it needs hands-on work, I'll come out.

What does the $60 diagnostic cover?

On a first house call I find the problem and quote the fix. Go ahead and the $60 counts toward the job. If not, you pay the $60, plus the travel fee if one applies: free within 10 miles of Washingtonville, $35 elsewhere in Orange and Ulster, $50+ outside them.

Is remote help safe?

Yes. You install AnyDesk and give me a one-time code. You see everything and can end it any time. I can't reconnect without you.

Can I get help tonight or this weekend?

Usually, yes. Booked ahead is the normal rate. A same-day evening or weekend rush adds $50.

What if you can't fix it?

I'll tell you right away and point you in the right direction. You don't pay for work I didn't do. House calls still carry the diagnostic fee, plus the travel fee if one applies.
