    Really great experience (from start to finish) working with this family-owned company! When I say…read morefamily-owned, I mean that Mary, her husband, and their son will come to your house to install your new system. That level of family-owned. First and foremost, Mary has fantastic communication. When I initially sent my quote request, she responded quickly and thoroughly. Throughout the process, I had multiple questions (new to this), and she took the time to carefully reply to each question via email. This level of responsiveness is super important to me especially when it's a field I'm not knowledgeable in. There are a lot of moving parts when alarming a house and it was important that I understood exactly what we were getting. Her team did a great job installing our new security system. Everyone was very nice and professional. They took the time to explain everything and asked our input (regarding placement, etc.) whenever necessary. Mary carefully went through everything in the app to get me set up and familiar with the interface. They were also very respectful of our home -- offering to either remove shoes or put on their own shoe covers (we're a shoe-free household with small children so this is important to us). I also really appreciated how customizable everything was. There are so many different options that are offered with the security system (including a lot of automation like locking doors and controlling lights, etc. that we weren't actually interested in). If you're a newbie like me, I'll break down the basic security options. It helps to have some understanding of what's available before you get started. I was a little overwhelmed but Mary was helpful in answering my questions. Anyway, you've got a keypad that controls your alarm system (arm/disarm). You can do that via app (even if not home) or key fob. Then you've got your various sensors. Obviously, the door open sensors are a must. They'll trigger the alarm if someone opens the door (when armed) and is unable to enter the proper disarm code. Then you've got the option of installing window open sensors. There are also glass break sensors (generally, one per small room or two for large rooms) that will notify you if a glass break is detected (or if house is armed, set off the alarm). Finally, you've got motion sensors (these are automatically turned off when you arm your system in stay mode versus away). Assuming you'll wire the doors, you need to decide if you want glass breaks and if so, whether they will cover full home or just most vulnerable areas; if you want window sensors and if so, on all or some windows (might depend on your window type and vulnerability to window being manually opened and whether glass breaks might be sufficient); and whether you want motion sensors and which areas you want them to cover. I'd recommend doing some preliminary research/planning on how these tools might fit your home and what coverage is necessary versus overkill. It depends on your layout, etc. Next, you've got cameras. They offer WiFi-based cameras (operated through alarm.com) and standard wired cameras. Video doorbells too. We replaced our Ring with their doorbell cam to centralize our camera controls. You can have everything controlled through the alarm.com app for convenience. The app is great -- very user-friendly. Anyway, there are a lot of other options available as well that I didn't even delve into. Thought I'd share the basics to get you started. Don't hesitate to use this company! They offer free in-person consultations and fantastic service -- professional, friendly, knowledgeable, and responsive. Oh and their rates seem reasonable and competitive. Very pleased with this experience as well as our new alarm system! BIG THANK YOU!

    I reached out to Security Consultant Pros for my security needs to install an alarm and camera…read moresystem with an NVR. They have a very knowledgeable and professional team that showed up for my free consult explaining everything they would recommend for my security needs. I received my quotes via email allowing me time to accept, pricing was comparable to other companies in the area. Once I approved the quotes they were out quickly for my install. I could not be more pleased with my new equipment installed in my home it's a military grade alarm system and the cameras have a very clear view of every detail in its view. Security Consultant Pros has covered my every security need I had and more. So if you have security needs I would highly recommend this family owned and operated company to you as well.

    We are not very happy with the service from Tel Star. I had service tech, Lucas, out to replace…read morebatteries and add 2 new door contacts to our security system. Since that visit we have not been able to arm our security system. I've texted, called and emailed with no response. As a result of no communication, I emailed to terminate our contract/service and again no response. Last year Lucas replaced our thermostat. At the time it was winter so it was tested for heat but when the spring came, the AC did not work which he ultimately repaired. I asked why we have to replace the batteries on this thermostat almost every 6 weeks. We have never had a thermostat that required this. He said it was how this one worked. My brother visited and said it was because he did not hook up the green wire which gave it power from the HVAC unit. My brother hooked this up and we've not had to replace the batteries. We've worked with Tel Star for almost 10yrs but I believe it was sold about 2-3yrs ago. It seems that every time we've had a service call, it required at least an additional visit to resolve the problem. I question the depth of technical knowledge the company has. I would not recommend this company.

    TelStar is amazing! They are friendly, knowledgeable and provide superior products at a great…read morevalue. We have used them in several of our homes and will continue to do so! Everyone is very nice and a pleasure to work with. I can't say enough good things about them!
