Where Patrick learned the trade: CD Computers.
For years, John and Charlene Bell ran CD Computers in Spruce Grove. When they retired, they gave Patrick, who worked at their bench for the shop’s last seven years, their blessing to help carry the work forward.
Is CD Computers in Spruce Grove still open?
No. CD Computers closed when John and Charlene Bell retired. Patrick, who spent the shop’s last seven years at their bench, now works at Computer Wall, 5019 47 Ave in Stony Plain.
Where Patrick trained
Seven years at the CD Computers bench.
CD Computers was a busy counter shop, and John and Charlene ran it the right way: no shortcuts, no selling fixes nobody needed, and the truth about a computer even when a simpler answer would sell more.
Patrick spent the shop’s last seven years at that bench. A busy repair counter shows you every make, every failure and every odd fault that only appears when nobody’s watching. He put in the work every day, through the busy stretches and the slow ones, until the doors closed for retirement.
That’s the standard Computer Wall still runs on.

Two local shops, one workshop
Rooted in two local legacies.
Patrick learned the trade at CD Computers in Spruce Grove. Soft Effects in Stony Plain and its founder, Dale Evjen, inspired the shop in the first place, and the Evjen family chose Computer Wall to carry on Dale’s work. Read the full story →

What customers say on Google
“Patrick was amazing. He took my computer in after closing time, figured out my issue by the morning and my computer was fixed that afternoon. He explained the issue and gave us options. I am so appreciative of the fast and reliable work he did on my PC.”
“I was in a panic as 48 hours before I had to leave for a contract job, my laptop crashed. Patrick was so understanding of my dilemma and within 24 hours we had a solution. I had a budget and he recognised that and was able to maintain that. I’m working through another project with him already.”
“Great service. Very helpful. I brought in my 2014 computer because it wasn’t linking with my new iPhone. He was able to upgrade the operating system. So far it’s working great! Now I don’t have to buy a new computer.”
