About Bearded Nerd
Hi, I'm the Bearded Nerd — a one-person IT services company based in Kelso, in the heart of the Scottish Borders. I build websites for local businesses, set up business automation to save you time, and fix, upgrade, and build PCs.
The name? Well, the beard is real and the nerd part is definitely accurate. But behind the name is a genuine passion for helping people get the most out of technology — without the headaches. When you work with me, you deal with me directly. No call centres, no being passed around, no waiting days for a reply.
How I work
These aren't just nice words on a page — they're promises I make to every client.
Tech doesn't have to be confusing. I explain everything in language that makes sense — no jargon, no acronyms, no nonsense.
I'll tell you what you actually need, not what makes me the most money. If a simple solution works, that's what I'll recommend.
I'm not a faceless agency. I'm your neighbour in Kelso who happens to be really good with computers.
What I do
Three core services, each tailored to the needs of folk in the Scottish Borders.
Websites
Modern, fast websites that help local businesses get found online and turn visitors into customers.
Business Automation
Save hours every week by automating the repetitive tasks that slow your business down.
PC Services
Repairs, upgrades, and custom builds — from slow laptops to brand new gaming rigs.
The story so far

Started in Kelso
I started Bearded Nerd with a simple idea: local businesses deserve great IT support without the corporate price tag or confusing jargon.
