We hired this company for a lighting design and low-voltage specification package for a high-end…read morecustom home project and paid approximately $5,000 upfront, expecting a complete, buildable lighting plan our electrician could follow during construction. The primary reason we hired them was for guidance on LED strip lighting systems, transformer sizing and placement, wiring diagrams, wine cellar backlighting, stair lighting, under-cabinet lighting, ceiling details, niches, and other architectural lighting features throughout the home. Despite multiple follow-ups, onsite discussions, renderings, and repeated emails, we never received complete specifications for many of the most critical items needed to move construction forward. We repeatedly had to ask basic but essential questions such as: * which LED strips to use * which transformers were compatible * where transformers should be located * what the electrician should wire for * load calculations and system divisions These were not additional requests -- this was the core service we hired them for. The most frustrating part was the lack of urgency and accountability despite construction actively progressing onsite. Instead of simplifying the project, we were left researching products ourselves, coordinating missing technical information manually, and trying to avoid delays caused by incomplete documentation. Considering the amount paid and the level of follow-up required from our side, the engagement ultimately delivered very little practical value to the project. It genuinely felt like the $5,000 fee was largely wasted. For a company operating in the luxury residential space, this level of communication, coordination, and incomplete delivery is extremely disappointing. Based on our experience, I would not recommend this company for projects where responsiveness, technical detail, and timely execution actually matter.

The person said to make it easier he would need to drill some holes to help hide the wires. He asked if we had paint and said he could patch it. Next thing you know we have a 5"x5" hole in our fireplace along with holes in another wall. The patch was left unfinished. He said he had a paint brush initially and then later said he didn't. Pretty sure he was using a paper towel. Then told me I should paint it in an hour. Called their office and Nikki told me their team doesn't do paint or patching...ok. Why say you can? She couldn't tell me when someone would be back out and never called me back. So we have a mounted tv but now we need a professional painter to come fix the botched patch. Not to mention I spent 30 mins cleaning up after they left.

When we remodeled our house in 2 phases we wanted to upgrade our A/V and wifi across our entire…read morehouse. Alex and his team were flexible and incredibly knowledgeable with A/V systems and with Sonos especially which was extremely valuable as that is ultimately what we opted for. In phase 1 of our remodel, the VSS team helped us update our wifi and establish Sonos across our 2 most populated rooms and our back patio. (Their flexibility and patience shined here as they did not push to expand into additional rooms yet because they knew we were planning a Phase 2 remodel) Because they did such a stellar job on the Phase 1 and because they were so professional, fast and flexible we reached out and asked them to add Sonos speakers across the entire house, plus 1 Sonos "Move" so we'd have another outdoor speaker we could place wherever we wanted in the back or front yard when entertaining guests. VSS gets 5+ stars from me because additionally as part of Phase 2 they also identified and FIXED a deficiency in the wifi setup that was mainly due to a wifi service upgrade after they had completed Phase 1. This improvement to the wifi was incredibly timely given my 3 kids were (still are) all home doing distance learning because of Covid-19. If you have A/V needs, these guys are the best. I highly recommend them and they have secured a lifetime customer in me for the high quality of their work, professionalism and customer service. Big thanks to Alex for his patience to work with us through both Phase 1 & 2 remodels, and special thanks to Andrew & Rob on the wifi fix during Phase 2. You guys are the best, THANK YOU!!

I can't recommend Rudy enough!

Where others saw a desperate situation and wanted to overcharge, Rudy saw a challenge and delivered. He worked with what he had, fixed every issue, and got my entire system running perfectly without a single hiccup. His attention to detail is unmatched--especially on my projector screen install. I was nervous because the studs in the wall left no room for error, but Rudy's measurements were spot-on, and he got it done with absolute precision and accuracy. Beyond the quality, Rudy is fair, honest, and budget-friendly. He didn't take advantage of the situation; instead, he went above and beyond to make sure everything was done the right way. After dealing with the stress of a bad contractor, Rudy was a lifesaver and turned the whole project around. If you need someone who is a good person in your house, reliable, highly skilled, and professional for audio/video work, Rudy is the guy. I'd give him 10 stars if I could!

We met onsite a couple weeks later and set about to get the system working again. It turned out it was just bad/degraded wiring at the outdoor panel that was causing the outage. Wiring was repaired and I elected to have him replace all the handsets to provide a "repaired and refreshed" image to our tenants.
