Coos Bay, Oregon

Twenty years fixing Coos County's tech

iCompute is one person: Dale Barrett. The person who diagnoses your device is the person who repairs it and the person who explains it back to you.

Dale Barrett, owner and technician at iCompute in Coos Bay, Oregon — Dale BarrettOwner & technician

One person, start to finish.

Dale has been repairing computers and phones on the Oregon South Coast for over two decades — long enough that the phone number painted on the side of his old service car is the same one that rings today.

There's no counter staff, no queue of technicians, and nobody quoting you on a device they've never seen. You describe the problem to the person who is going to fix it.

That's also why the reviews keep saying the same things: that he explained what needed doing, walked through the process, and didn't try to sell anything extra.

How it works here

The way I'd want to be treated.

You find out what's actually wrong before anything gets replaced.
You hear the plan and the cost first — no surprise invoice at pickup.
You get told when a repair isn't worth it. Sometimes the honest answer is that the device isn't worth the money.
Mac and PC, old and new. Not one platform, and not only the current version of Windows.
Your files matter most. Hardware is replaceable. Photos and records usually aren't.

You may have seen the car around town.

Long before there was a shop on Central Avenue, this was a signed car and a phone number that people in Coos County passed along to each other.

House calls never stopped being part of it — which is why on-site service is still offered today, right across the county.

EXTREMELY KNOWLEDGEABLE AND GOES ABOVE AND BEYOND FOR HIS CUSTOMERS!! I had an issue with my computer that no one else said could be fixed, but Dale was able to figure it out and fix my computer. I trust him with my electronic repairs more than anyone and Will travel over an hour for his services. He doesn't charge to diagnose and his prices are very reasonable!!

Dale did a quality job on my phone for what needed to be done, and was very helpful. He explained what needed to be done, and walked through the process.
