Brought in a high end gaming computer for windows security corruption and he took the computer in on a holiday and was done within an hour. Very knowledgeable, nice to work with and very fair on pricing. Will definitely go back with any other issues!
We had crashing and stability problems. Riley figured out the problem quickly, was flexible with our schedule, very knowledgeable, and a delight to work with.
“I had an amazing experience with Riley at this repair shop! He went above and beyond, fixing my daughter’s laptop and didn’t even charge us for the simple fix. He was kind, professional, and I couldn’t be more grateful. Highly recommend this place!”
I brought my Sony Vaio in to have the fan replaced. While working on the laptop, Riley noticed that my lithium-ion battery was badly swollen and "puffy." He immediately flagged this as a major safety hazard and asked me if I wanted the battery safely removed. A swollen battery is a massive fire risk, if it had…

Thank you so much for the kind words, it was a pleasure working with you!
I brought my Sony Vaio in to have the fan replaced. While working on the laptop, Riley noticed that my lithium-ion battery was badly swollen and "puffy." He immediately flagged this as a major safety hazard and asked me if I wanted the battery safely removed. A swollen battery is a massive fire risk, if it had overheated, it could have triggered thermal runaway, essentially a violent, self-sustaining chemical fire that shoots out intense flames, toxic gas, and is incredibly difficult to put out with standard fire extinguishers. By catching it early and handling it, he honestly might have saved my home, or my life. Professional, incredibly thorough, and truly goes above and beyond for customer safety. Higher than highly recommended!
Sean, thank you greatly for the kind words. I am glad we were able to spot the issue and handle it promptly. Feedback like this reminds me that what we're doing has a serious (and significantly positive) impact. Thank you!
Riley is incredibly friendly & super quick to help! Amazing service & I highly recommend BadgerLayer to anyone in need of tech repairs!
Thank you for the kind words, Ana! It was a pleasure working on your gaming computer!
Riley and his company Badger Level are fantastic! We purchased a new computer and accessories from them and he did all the set up ! He is extremely efficient, and excels in customer service! We have friends who have had tremendous experiences with him doing troubleshooting on their computers as well! We all highly recommend Riley and Badger Level!
It was a pleasure working with you both, thank you for having me in your home! Glad we were able to setup that beautiful new computer and make things as seamless as possible.
Best local experience I’ve had. Will continue going to them if any tech issues arises. Will recommend everyone to check them out!
Hi there, Milo! Thank you for the kind words, being a new computer repair shop in Whitewater, reviews like this remind us that our hard work is leading to great long-term results for our clients.
He is extremely professional, helpful, knowledgeable, and friendly! He fixed my broken computer in a very timely manner and he kept up to date with me on what he was doing! He also figured out for me why my computer was running so slow as well. Definitely will come back when I get the part to make it run faster.
Hi there, Hailey. Thank you very much for the kind words!
