Meet Andy Goody
Forge42 Tech was founded by Andy Goody, a technology professional with 26 years of real-world IT experience and a genuine passion for solving problems.
Unlike many repair shops that focus purely on replacing parts and processing transactions, Andy's background spans enterprise IT, infrastructure, networking, systems administration, troubleshooting and customer support. Having worked within professional technology environments, he understands not only how to fix devices but how technology supports people's lives and businesses.
After years of helping colleagues, friends, family and businesses overcome technical challenges, Forge42 was created to provide something often missing in the industry: honest advice, quality workmanship and personal service.
"Technology should be reliable, understandable and accessible. Whether repairing a damaged device or upgrading a laptop, designing a small business network or providing ongoing IT support identify the real problem, explain the solution clearly, and deliver work that lasts."
— Andy Goody, FounderEvery customer is treated as an individual, not a ticket number. Every repair is carried out with care and attention to detail. Every recommendation is based on what is best for the customer not what generates the highest invoice.
Forge42 Tech combines enterprise-level knowledge with local, personal service giving customers access to professional expertise without the complexity or inflated costs often associated with larger IT providers.
For Andy, technology isn't just a job. It's a craft. That's why Forge42 exists: to forge reliable solutions from complex problems, and help customers get the very best from their technology.
The meaning behind Forge42
Every word was chosen deliberately. This isn't a name — it's a philosophy.
Forge
Represents craftsmanship, resilience and the process of building something stronger. Just as metal is forged through skill, precision and experience, we believe technology solutions should be carefully engineered — not rushed or patched together.
42
Long recognised as the symbolic answer to life's biggest questions. For us, it represents the pursuit of solutions, curiosity, problem-solving and the determination to find answers when technology doesn't behave as it should. Every fault has a solution it simply takes the right expertise to find it.
Why choose Forge42 Tech?
"We don't just repair technology. We understand it. Many shops can replace a screen or install a hard drive. Forge42 Tech goes further understanding how devices, networks, systems and users all work together. That means solving the root cause of problems, not just treating the symptoms."
