Phil helped us set up a whole home audio system, media center and alarm system in our new 4 bedroom…read moretwo-floor condo. Generally, Phil knows his stuff inside-out, is creative about how to achieve his clients' goals and is passionate about what he does. For our entertainment system, he suggested several options around how to configure our whole house audio (we eventually went with Sonos), got us a great deal on equipment and worked with pieces that we already owned or had selected to purchase. He did an amazing in job in fitting a ton of pieces into a small cabinet near our fireplace to hide all external wiring and built out a small vent to manage heat. For the alarm system, we were not sure what to do since we do not have a land line and were hesitant to purchase one just for the alarm system. Phil was able to set us up with an Internet-based security system at an extremely reasonable price that was better than all options recommended by the builder. He followed up diligently and got us a system that we are thrilled with. Based on his work with us, we recommended Envision to our neighbors who also had an excellent experience with installing their in-ceiling speakers.

David suggested POE extenders to avoid running extra cable that would be more than likely exposed on the exterior.

This is an updated review for Frank Barajas Electrical aka Security Camera Installation - Digital…read moreEyez. Frank Barajas warrantied the previously reviewed work on 4/14/2020 for up to 5 years. About a week and a half after the repair made by Frank Barajas Electrical and his "master electrician" aka his father, the same kitchen breaker started tripping again. I contacted Frank and arranged to have him come back to reinspect their work. He agreed to come by the evening of 4/28/2020. Before the agreed upon time, Frank indicated that he was feeling sick. He said his business partner (his father) might be able to come by instead. That was the last I heard from him. I attempted to contact Frank four other times and there was no response. Meanwhile, I have had to run an extension cord to run our refrigerator affected by the tripping breaker. I arranged for another electrician to inspect the problem on 5/5/2020 and to say I was surprised is an understatement. The new electrician found two major problems: 1) a major leak with flooding beneath the kitchen sink and 2) a burned out section of wiring complete with wire on wire contact which was the cause of the tripping breaker. Frank Barajas and company claimed to crawl under the house to inspect the wiring. They never reported the major water leak nor did they report the burned out section of the wiring. There was no way this could have been missed. The burned out section of the wiring could have caused a fire and endangered our lives. I believe Frank Barajas and company were negligent. Frank Barajas seemed like an upstanding person, but I was mistaken. He was negligent and took advantage of the situation. He and his father convinced us to replace several outlets because they said that was causing the breaker to trip. According to the new electrician, the cause of the tripping was the short from the burned out section of the wiring which would have cost us 50% less that what Frank charged us. I attached pictures and video (if allowed) so you can see for yourself. I would never hire Frank and his father, nor would I ever recommend them to anyone.

Beware of IE Alarms and the salesman Mike. Mike sold me an alarm system I didn't need. All I needed…read morewas my code reset. After selling me an inferior system with 2 doors and 4 windows without sensors unlike my previous system had. Beware of IE Alarms contract also. It shows you a total price for the alarm but then at the bottom of the contract he clicked a little box with 3 years of monitoring for 3 years at $50.00 per month. I had no idea he slipped that in, it was never discussed and I was completely unaware he added that. Now that I have disputed the contract they refuse to remove the $600.00 a year charge I didn't need or want. I do not recommend this company and their sleeve bag sales team. Beware of IE Alarm

What was my service like.... awesome…read more It all started with me seeking help with setting up my Ring device and understanding how all this stuff works. I tried to do it myself and I got frustrated with the process. The company was on time to the appointment, friendly, knowledgeable, patient, and quick. After watching them setup the equipment there was no way I could have done this on my own! In addition, I asked for a crash course on how to operate the Ring app on my cell and how to change the ring tones. So I say YES it was worth every penny I spent because I was seconds from trashing the Ring and purchasing a wireless door-bell. Thank you for your excellent service and may God continue to increase in your business! Especially, during the Pandemic we all are faced with. Gennie
