Chilliwack & the Fraser Valley

Seamless IT.
Effortless business.

Your network, your servers, your backups, your email. Someone has to keep it all running — so you can get on with running the business.

What we do

All of it, or the parts you hate

Hourly, flat rate, or prepaid blocks — whichever fits. No contract required to get help.

Day to day

Support that answers

Your staff call us instead of you. Phones, laptops, printers, passwords, the shared drive nobody can find.

Around the clock

Monitoring

We watch your servers and network so failures get caught at 3am, not at 9am when the crew shows up.

Wired & wireless

Networking

Firewalls, switches, Wi-Fi, VLANs and VPNs — designed, secured and documented so the connection just works.

Tested, not assumed

Backup & recovery

A backup nobody has restored is a guess. We test yours on a schedule and tell you how long a full recovery takes.

Quietly, in the background

Security

Patching, email filtering, endpoint protection, and staff who can spot a fake invoice before they pay it.

Scoped & delivered

Projects

Server replacements, network builds, office moves, Microsoft 365 migrations — quoted up front, done after hours.

Less manual work

Automation & integration

Connect the apps you already use and automate the repetitive steps, so nobody's retyping the same data twice.

Homes too

Computer repair

Slow PCs, virus removal, SSD upgrades, new machine setup. Flat prices, quoted before we start.

Why Silverback IT

Small shop. Serious systems.

You're not getting a call centre or a ticket number that disappears into a queue in another province. You're getting one technician who knows your setup.

Actually local

Based in Chilliwack with a truck in town. Search "IT support Chilliwack" and most results are firms in Surrey or Toronto with a page about Chilliwack.

After hours, on purpose

Evenings and Saturdays. Server swaps and migrations happen when your shift isn't running, so nothing stops mid-day.

Plain English

You'll get told what's wrong, what it costs, and what happens if you wait — without jargon designed to make the invoice look bigger.

Priced before the work

Quoted up front, every time. No surprise invoices, no meter running while someone figures it out on your dime.

One person who knows your setup

Same technician every visit. No re-explaining your network to a new name each time you call.

Honest about fit

If your problem is better solved by someone else, or not worth paying us for, we'll tell you before you sign anything.

Who we're built for

Businesses that can't stop

Five to fifty people. Too big for the computer shop, too small to need a firm in Vancouver. If your business depends on its systems staying up, this is built for you.

Trucking & logistics

Dispatch software, scanners, and yard connectivity that has to work at 5am.

Agriculture & food

Farm offices, processing lines, and the equipment software nobody else will touch.

Construction & trades

Job site connectivity, estimating software, and crews working off phones.

Dental & medical

Practice management, imaging, and privacy-conscious handling of patient records.

Legal & accounting

Client confidentiality, document retention, secure remote access.

Manufacturing

Shop floor PCs, label printers, and ERP systems that stop production when they hiccup.

How pricing works

You'll know the number first

Three ways to work together. Whichever fits, you get the price in writing before anything starts.

Pay as you go

Hourly

For one-off problems and occasional help. Billed in fair increments — not rounded up to the hour for a ten-minute fix. Best if you just need someone when something breaks.

Fixed scope

Flat rate per job

For defined work: a new machine setup, a server replacement, a Microsoft 365 migration. One quoted price for the whole job, so overruns are our problem, not yours.

Ongoing

Prepaid blocks & managed plans

Buy a block of hours at a lower rate, or move to a flat monthly plan with monitoring, patching and tested backups included. Best value once IT stops being occasional.

No contract required to get help. You can start with a single hourly call-out and never hear another word about a monthly plan. If a managed plan would genuinely save you money, we'll show you the math — and if it wouldn't, we'll say so.
Downtime cost calculator

What does an outage actually cost?

Most businesses underestimate it. Put your numbers in and see what a single outage costs in idle wages alone — before lost sales, missed deadlines, or the phone call to an unhappy customer.

Estimated cost of this outage
$1,800
in idle wages alone

This counts idle wages only. It doesn't include lost sales, missed deadlines, overtime to catch up, or the cost of telling a customer your systems are down. The real number is higher. Monitoring and restore-tested backups are how you avoid paying it.

Hours & service area

After hours, on purpose

Most infrastructure work should happen when nobody's working. Server swaps, patching and migrations get done in the evening so your shift isn't interrupted. Monitoring runs continuously either way.

Questions

The things people ask first

Do I have to sign a contract?

No. You can call us for a single problem, pay for that visit, and never hear about a monthly plan. Managed plans exist because they save money once you're calling regularly — but they're an option, not a condition of getting help.

What does it cost?

It depends on the work, which is why everything gets quoted before it starts. Hourly for one-off problems, a flat price per job for defined work like a server replacement or a Microsoft 365 migration, and prepaid blocks or a monthly plan if you want ongoing coverage. You'll always see the number first.

You work evenings and Saturdays — what if something breaks at 10am?

Call or submit a ticket and you'll get a response the same day, with a callback after four. For clients on a managed plan, genuine emergencies — your business is down — get handled whenever they happen, not just in the evening window.

Do you only work with businesses?

No. Home computer repair is part of what we do — slow PCs, virus removal, SSD upgrades, new machine setup — at flat prices quoted before we start.

What areas do you cover?

Onsite across Chilliwack, Sardis, Vedder, Rosedale, Popkum, Agassiz, Harrison, Abbotsford, Mission and Hope. Remote support works anywhere.

We already have an IT person. Can you still help?

Yes. Plenty of businesses have someone in-house who handles the day-to-day and needs backup for the bigger pieces — server work, network builds, migrations, or just a second opinion. We can work alongside them rather than replacing them.

What happens at the free assessment?

We walk through your network, servers, backups and security, then send you a plain-English written summary of what's solid and what's a risk — with rough costs to fix anything urgent. It's yours to keep whether you hire us or not.
