I was thinking of hiring someone to wall mount the five tvs anyway so that was it. I hired WSC and in one day they had all the tvs, a sound bar, and 5.1 surround system and all xboxes and blu ray players connected. Everything works, wires are hidden, looks great. Don't waste money on squads of geeks, nerds or other nationally known names for socially awkward people; go with WSC!

The owner decided not to come to my house cause I accidentally hung up on him while working on a pipe that busted under my sink with water going everywhere. When I called back he was very bitter and refused to come out. As a response to the owner this 100% valid review as I scheduled this time last week and confirmed this time with his staff yesterday. I then took time off early to be here to find a floor full of water right has called and I did accidentally hung up on him. Once I get it under control I called the number back to see who I hung up on and apologize to find out that it was WSC who the refused to come out. Then when I explained what happened he was not professional in fact very bitter and refused to come out. I stand by what I posted and I told you the pipe busted when I called back. Also again it was accident as I was under the sink on the phone another company.

Very, very happy with the purchase and installation of our new home theatre system. The price was…read morereasonable, especially considering the installation of a fairly complex system, which is beyond the capability of all but the most "electronically-handy" homeowners (myself included). Since we were moving from Northern Virginia, we were dependent on the recommendation of others -- and John (the company owner) was exceptionally responsive to our questions and timetable. (I particularly appreciated the fact that John permitted me to have a new TV shipped from Amazon directly to his shop, since we were "on the road" between homes and not yet in the local area.) The installation team -- Kevin and Cortez -- were on-time, polite, professional, and very helpful in walking me through the system operation. Moreover, John personally followed-up the very next day to ensure we were satisfied with the installation -- that's great customer service! I'd unhesitatingly recommend Spartan Pro-Tech, LLC for all your home theatre needs in the South Hampton Roads region.

This survey is tech focused. However the company is the issue. First, there's no option on the…read moreinstall page about smart locks. I mentioned in the comments that I had 2 that needed installed. I found out when the tech arrived that there's an extra fee for that. My appointment was set for 10am, at 1030 I reached out to customer support to find out where the tech was as he hadn't arrived or made contact. I was told the tech would contact me within 15 minutes for a status. An hour later I got the call saying he was booked and wouldn't be able to make the appointment time. The tech finally arrived at 5pm! While this might seems like a technician issue, it's scheduling in the company. After instal was complete (and the tech left all the trash laying around) I was charged an extra $20 by the company for no known reason.

When trying to locate a reputable business to work on my home entertainment system I got lucky…read more After calling a few places and even Yelping "Home Entertainment" Built-In Systems did not appear. When driving through Virgina Beach Town Center I spotted their van which listed Home Theater. Their current single low review did not deter me from investigating. I added the category to the yelp business listing. I called the office and spoke with a nice staff person named Elizabeth. I told her what I was looking to do. She provided info on charges which is $80 trip, then billed on the quarter hour $20. That seemed a bit steep. I asked to discuss the job and charges with owner Jeff Simmons who called me back within 15 minutes. After discussing the job which consisted of a new state of the art Harmony Elite Universal Remote by Logitech, installing Apple TV and making adjustments to the receiver and do an audio check for acoustics we arrived at a probable time to do the job of 2 hours to a max of 4 if they ran into an issue(s). The cost was not flexible and could not be locked in. However, I felt extremely comfortable with Jeff and felt that he and staff had the competence to do a great job. I hired them and set the appointment. Since they were backed up with the weather it took a week. The tech Brian arrived at my home 10 minutes early and called. I was just arriving home. He quickly got to work accessing the job. I could tell this guy was not milking any clock as he hustled around. Within minutes he had the Apple TV installed and began to pull out unnecessary wires from the old remote. Upon discussion of cleaning up the cabinet and ventilating it better a shelf was brought up. It was not part of the plan. However, I wanted to separate the units to vent the receiver and completely close off the cabinet. Brian again quickly got the tools necessary to trim out the existing shelf I had for the cabinet. Wow was this a good call as it looked great! And now the doors could be closed off. All the AV equipment was previously out of site controlled by a 3 year old universal remote. What changed was adding a high tech Bluetooth remote that could now operate the Apple TV. The only reason to now open the cabinet is for the Blue Ray. The snag on the job came when attempting to get a WiFi signal to set up the remote. Brian pushed through as quickly as he could never stopping a second. The delay was around 30 minutes, but it was done correctly. Next was adjustments to the sound and setting of acoustics which really made a huge difference as the previous set up over the last five years had went off track. Finally the entire set up was complete and Brian assisted me in setting up the remote on my smart phone, a neat feature. Next setting up favorites and a walk through the remote. The Harmony Elite remote was $299 and I was totally impressed. The job took a total of 3 hours and 20 minutes. The cost over $600 which included the cost of the control. I was very satisfied with what was accomplished. The system was much better than when Built-in Systems arrived. Everything looked and worked great! I also was impressed with the professionalism of Brian. Built-in Systems bread and butter is commercial alarms, they also do residential. Jeff's Dad started the business in the 70's as an alarm company. They also specialize in intercoms, central vacuums and structured wiring. Basically anything low voltage they can do interior, or exterior. The expertise necessary for my job was not taken lightly. Another company could have taken three times longer and easily screwed it up. I'm so pleased with their work. I would recommend them all day long.

Verging on fraudulent. My parents called Built-In Systems to see if they could help repair a…read morecentral vacuum system, to which the answer was "quite likely" but we need to come out and look at the system. *NO MENTION OF A SERVICE FEE". My Father is a very savvy man, but at 94 is not nimble enough to get up on a ladder to replace the brushes which he suspected was the issue. The only piece of good news is that the workers came out when they said they would. The first clue of an issue should have been that they came out in dress clothes, not in work clothes. They did not get within 6 feet of the vacuum. My Father turned on the vacuum, and said based on the noise he suspected it was the brushes. The workers confirmed that was the issue. When asked for a price they said Sir, we don't service anything, we can only offer you ane entire new motor (of which there are two in this particular vacuum), for $550/piece. Shocked my father said they could send a quote but it was not likely. Then, to make matters worse when they knew they didn't do repairs but replacement work only and still came out; my parents received a $226 bill for less than 10 minutes on sight and not actually looking at the motors. We've been trying to resolve this for months but to no avail Be warned. I live in California and hence do not get here often but I am horrified by this business practice and suggest that it may verge on abuse and fraud paying on elderly individuals. Should we get this resolved, I will remove this post.

He listened and helped me decide on a system that would work perfectly within my allotted space. The best part is that he went out of his way to get me the best price for my project. Chuck installed my home theater with great attention to detail. The work was completed flawlessly and was a perfect creation. We are psyched to come home after a long day of work and get into a good movie... thanks to Select Home Theater. Best of all, Chuck is a man with not only knowledge and skills... but with integrity. He is honest, trust-worthy and cares about your best interest. For this, I've referred him to friends and family and will continue to do so. If you're interested in setting up a home movie theater system in Hampton Roads, I strongly advise you to consider Select Home Theater as well. Steve Preston - Chesapeake, VA
