Since they seem to handle a lot of corporate-scale installations, I initially wondered if my project might be too small--but that concern disappeared pretty quickly. The team was already very familiar with Ubiquiti systems and was incredibly patient working with me despite my fairly basic understanding. They walked me through the tradeoffs and ultimately recommended stepping up from mid-range equipment to more professional-grade options. The reasoning was clear, the cost/benefit made sense, and at no point did I feel pressured--just well-advised. The actual Ethernet installation work was top-notch--smurf tubing, recessed (not sticking out!) enclosures, and everything. The level of craftsmanship and attention to detail is honestly beyond what I would normally expect (or even feel comfortable demanding from contractors). They went above and beyond without being asked, and the cable organization is immaculate. Huge thanks to Justin and John for their precision and quality of work, and to Jim and Rodrigo for their thoughtful recommendations on equipment and access point placement. If you're looking for a team that combines technical expertise with professionalism and genuine care, I'd absolutely recommend them.

Now the house I am in on Northside of Berkeley is one of their single-residence accounts. At the apartments LMI would answer service requests very quickly, and did not hesitate to install a new radio when the existing one reached the end of its life cycle. Now, as always, I can get knowledgeable tech staff on the phone for whatever I need or want to know, and usually I end up knowing well more than the momentary need calls for.

We hired Claw Communications to install ethernet in our new business suite in Walnut Creek. They…read moreinstalled and ran all new ethernet to our patch panel and ran new ethernet to each office. They also had to install some new jacks in some of the offices. Mark and his crew were very professional and completed the job on time and within budget. Mark saved us a bunch of money by telling us we could keep some of the existing Cat5 cabling, when he could've made a ton more money by suggesting we replace it all with Cat6, which we had initially planned to do. Later, Mark and his son came and installed two 85" TVs in our conference room. The TVs took up the entire wall and there were reinforced steel plates behind the wall. It was not an easy job. Mark was very professional. He showed up on time. He told us the mounts he preferred to use and gave me a link to purchase them. The TVs turned out great!!
