I took my old iPhone in to see Rick with many questions about this device, syncing problems and possible replacements. He was very patient and personable, taking time to explain things in a way I could understand (I’m not terribly techie). After spending 30 or 40 minutes addressing all my issues, he graciously declined to charge me for his time and efforts. I will definitely take my business to The Stem Support in future and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Rick to anyone looking for a fair, reputable and knowledgeable repair service for their Apple devices. Cheers, Rick! Thanks again for your kind assistance.

Rick is a very honest and knowledgeable computer tech. He did a great job sourcing and upgrading the ram on my laptop, and even threw in a free clean that ended up taking longer than the upgrade. He's very capable at working on more than just apple products, also.

Rick from the Stem Support is amazing. Helped me with two different computer problems. All were completed satisfactory and the pricing is very reasonable. the Stem Support is located in a small shop in Bowness. He even helped me get a computer going that I thought was shot and I was able to sell it at a fair market value. If you have an pc/Mac computer problems please go see Rick!

Cracked my IPhone screen, had it fixed and on my way within a hour at a great price also. I was happy walking out, screen has worked flawless…..but then…they reach out a few weeks later on text to ask if everything is still working ok, that’s next level customer service that’s lost these day, this is the place to go. Well done Stem!!

After calling a few places, this was by far the best deal. Communication was good, repair was quick and I haven’t had any issues with my phone since. Would gladly go back if I needed to.

Rick is probably one of the most honest and upfront gentleman I've had the privilege of doing business with. He gives options and suggestions where they count and you don't for one second feel like you're being nickel and dimed, either. For quality, speed, and far beyond exceptional pricing. No other repair shop in the city matches what the stem has to offer. A total hidden gem in the heart of bowness. What other shops quoted me $400.00 plus on repair, rick came in at $204.75 with gst and I had my phone back within the hour. He genuinely cares about his clients, even offered me a loaner phone to use my sim card in while conducting the repair. Which is unheard of ! Class act alll around. Thanks again, Rick!

I needed a new screen on my iPad- this was accomplished very successfully and at a reasonable price. It took a little longer than expected to get parts but this is beyond control of the shop.

I have taken my phone and my laptops to the stem. Super nice guy who is honest and won’t try to up charge you on anything. Very straightforward and easy interaction. I’ve told everyone I know about the stem because of the care the owner puts into everything. HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend him for any tech issues and he’s an expert in apple products which is a bonus!

I recently had my ASUS RoG phone repaired by Rick because of a broken screen, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the service. From the moment I contacted him, Rick was professional and efficient, quickly diagnosing the issue and offering a clear solution. The repair was completed faster than I expected, and the quality of the work was top-notch.Rick’s expertise with his craft is evident—he knew exactly what needed to be done and handled my phone with great care. The cost was very reasonable, especially considering the level of service and expertise provided. I highly recommend Rick for any tech repairs. He's skilled, efficient, and offers great value for money.Need a fix? This guy is the solution!

Update 2024: Rick saved the day again with an LG Velvet screen replacement at the best price!Original: Rick saved the day with an iPhone 7 screen replacement for the best price. He was very accommodating in ensuring that the repair was done soon and it was clear that he knows exactly what he was doing. I know exactly where to go know for any future repairs and feel good about keeping the business local.

6 weeks ago, I knew I needed a website and asked the universe for guidance. Shortly thereAfter my iPad quit talking to me and I walked in to the office of the first hit on Google for iPad repairs and met this amazingly talented visionary named Rick. In just a Few short weeks, he has created for me my dream. I simply throw ideas at him and he takes them and runs with them. He is creative, intuitive, patient, skilled, efficient and visionary. He guides me when I stray, listens to what I am trying to do and then makes these ramblings into a real live cohesive package, in just a few short weeks, he has pulled together my logo, website, marketing, banner, trade fair booth etc, often under tight deadlines. If you need to step your game up a notch ( or 10), this is the man to call. Thank you Rick!!........Tara, Spirit of Oneness Inc.

Today I was having some trouble with my computer and my internet browsers would not connect with my internet. I'm home from Indiana University for the week and I had a huge project to get done this week. My aunt in Calgary owns an iPhone repair store and she got me in touch with Rick. And I am so glad she did, because not only did he help fix my computer problem over the phone from another country, he also helped me run countless tests to try to find out what was wrong. He was very patient and incredibly helpful, and I would highly recommend him to anyone having any computer troubles!

I have an older laptop that had gotten really slow and the battery would only last about 40 min as well. I was debating whether or not I should just buy a new one vs paying to fix my current one. I took it in to Rick at The Stem to check it out as he was close to me and is a small business. He had the diagnosis done the same day in a couple hours and quoted me a very reasonable amount to fix the issues I was having. I prefer keeping things working than just throwing them away once one small problem occurs. He had my laptop for less than a day which was very appreciated as I use it for both personal and business activities. I’ll definitely reach out to The Stem next time I need work done on my computer or phone.

5/5 expertise and service! Got the battery of my macbook pro and iphone 11 PRO changed as well as a new screen and screen protector, all work great ! I can finally use my laptop as a laptop and not a desktop, phone screen has same sensitivity as original one, smashed the screen pretty hard a week after and the screen protector still olds and works. Super satisfied and can't compete with the pricing either. Rick was very arranging as per when to get service and fun to talk to! The Stem was recommended to me and I will recommend it no doubt !!

During Christmas Holidays The Stem was able to replace the worn out phone battery in my daughter’s iPhone X in record time with a super new battery much better than the original and for a price that was great value. Watching Rick work his magic, especially on some tri-point screws that looked stripped to me, was a real pleasure. Scheduling the work was smoothly done. Once Rick had the battery a text was sent to set up a time that worked for us to do the repair - I found it very convenient. I’ve used The Stem a number of times over the years and always pleased with the results. Rick knows his stuff, takes great care in his work and tries his best to accommodate customers needs. The Stem is a Bowness treasure that my family trusts.Here’s an update (Mar/26): My other child’s iPhone XS started having big issues with their battery not charging anymore. Rick was able to source a great battery and get it installed & working in great fashion. I understand this repair was done during a supplier change that made it harder to source the battery but Rick put in maximum effort to look after this customer. Just like always. Thank you Rick for amazing service!

I highly recommend Stem as an alternative to the back room technicians and long wait times at places like Apple or Memory Express . It’s a small shop and Kevin is very knowledgeable on all devices. For more than 6 years he has worked on many of my family’s devices from laptops to cell phones.

I had an excellent experience with Rick at The Stem! He installed the security system I needed for my business, making the entire process smooth and stress-free. His knowledge and professionalism were evident from start to finish. What really stood out was the detailed written report he provided, summarizing everything he had done—an unexpected but much-appreciated bonus! I highly recommend him for any IT needs. Thanks again for the outstanding service!

Thank you Rick for the great service and amazing turnaround! I called Rick this morning at 11:13am and got to his shop by 11:23am. He had my screen fixed on my iPhone 5S by 11:41am, back in business! I would highly recommend The Stem Group for all your tech fixes, in fact, I'll likely be bringing my iPads in to Rick in the next week or two to be fixed as well! Keep up the great work!

We’ve taken a few devices to The Stem Support, and every experience has been outstanding. Rick fixed our iPad screen, changed an Apple phone battery, brought a 2015 MacBook back to life, and even revived a 2009 iMac we thought was beyond saving! Both computers had a mix of hardware and software issues, yet everything now runs perfectly — and all for a fraction of what we would’ve paid at Apple. Honest, skilled, and reliable. Highly recommend!
