Your Portland tech concierge
NW Smart Home helps with your home networking, smart home automation, and computer needs in the Portland, Oregon metro area. I can assist with any or all stages of your next tech project: planning, sourcing, installing, troubleshooting, & training. Unlike larger retailers and installers, I aim to provide convenient & reasonably priced service with a personal touch.

Below are common services I provide. Visit my services page for more details or contact me to discuss your needs!
Home networking, wired ethernet & wifi (Xfinity, Century Link...)
Smart home automation (cameras, thermostat, lighting...)

Pricing
I value fair & transparent pricing and always guarantee my work. I will ideally estimate and price by the project and when that’s not possible I charge an hourly rate. For your convenience, I always travel to your location. Many projects can be completed in one visit and some require a followup. In many cases, I can perform remote support.
Contact me so we can discuss the details of your project(s).
What My Customers ARE SAYING
“Colin was great! He helped us set up a home network. He helped us choose the right equipment and ensured that the system worked seamlessly throughout the home and with our internet provider. He went out of his way to make sure we knew how to use, troubleshoot, and maximize our system. We highly recommend Colin.”
“Colin was right on time for our two home visits, and was a pleasure to interact with throughout. He quickly resolved our primary computer problem (a hardware issue) and then cleaned up several areas that were in need of attention. His manner is patient and instructive, so it was easy for us non-techies to follow what he was doing. We will plan to call him when we next need a computer rescue.”
“Great working with Colin getting my WiFi squared away at the new digs. Xfinity was horrid to deal with and basically trying to blame it on my modem. I didn’t have time for their BS. Colin got me up and running and working from home again.”
