Onsite IT Support Across the UK
Some problems can't be fixed over a screen-share. When you need an engineer physically in the building — for hardware faults, network cabling, office moves, or a system that's gone down completely — NetMonkeys provides onsite IT support backed by teams across 12 UK cities, so help arrives in hours, not days.
When remote support isn't enough
Remote IT support solves most day-to-day issues, but not all of them. A dead switch, a failed server, a new starter's desk that needs cabling, or a full office relocation all need a real person, on-site, with the right hands and the right tools.
We pair the responsiveness of a remote helpdesk with dispatched field engineers who can be physically at your premises when a problem calls for it — without the delay of waiting on a third-party contractor who's never seen your setup before.

Server & Infrastructure Support
On-site diagnostics and repair for server hardware, storage and physical network infrastructure.
Emergency Callout Support
Rapid-response onsite engineering when a critical fault takes your systems down completely.
Onsite vs remote IT support
Most businesses need both. Here's how we split the work, so you're never paying for an engineer to travel when a five-minute remote fix will do — and never left waiting when a problem genuinely needs hands on-site.
| Situation | Best handled remotely | Best handled onsite |
|---|---|---|
| Software issues | App errors, login problems, slow performance, updates. | Only if the device itself won't boot or connect at all. |
| Hardware faults | Rarely — most hardware repairs need hands on the device. | Failed components, printer jams, dead peripherals, cabling faults. |
| New starters | Software and account setup can be done remotely in advance. | Physical desk build, device handover and network connection. |
| Network issues | Configuration changes, firewall rules, remote diagnostics. | Physical switch failures, cabling faults, Wi-Fi dead zones. |
| Office moves | Planning, licensing transfers, cloud reconfiguration. | Physical relocation, re-cabling, and on-the-day support. |
Benefits of onsite IT support
Faster Hardware Diagnosis
Physical faults get identified and fixed in one visit, instead of a back-and-forth of remote troubleshooting that never quite reaches the cause.
Reduced Downtime
A single engineer resolving the issue in person is almost always faster than escalating through remote tiers or waiting on a courier for replacement parts.
Hands-On Network Expertise
Cabling faults, switch failures and Wi-Fi dead zones need someone tracing the physical infrastructure, not just reading a dashboard.
A Consistent, Known Engineer
The same field engineers return to your site over time, so they already understand your layout, your setup and your team.
Safer, Smoother Office Moves
Physical relocations are planned and executed by someone who's done it before, cutting the risk of damaged hardware or lost connectivity on the day.
Peace of Mind for Non-Technical Teams
Your staff get a real person to talk to when something's gone wrong, rather than trying to describe a hardware problem over the phone.

Onsite IT Support — FAQs
What is onsite IT support?
Onsite IT support is technical assistance delivered in person, at your premises, rather than remotely. It covers work that can't be done over a screen-share — hardware repairs, network cabling, server maintenance, office moves and new starter setup — carried out by an engineer physically on-site.
Do I need onsite IT support if I already have remote support?
Most businesses need both. Remote support resolves the majority of day-to-day software issues quickly, but hardware faults, cabling, and physical infrastructure problems still need an engineer on-site. We combine both under one contract, so you're not paying two separate providers.
How quickly can an onsite engineer reach us?
Response times depend on your location relative to our 12 UK engineering hubs, but most clients see same-day or next-day onsite visits for standard requests, with faster emergency callout options available for critical outages.
Can you handle a full office move or relocation?
Yes. We plan and execute complete IT relocations, including re-cabling, hardware transport, network reconfiguration and on-the-day support, so your team is back up and running with minimal downtime.
