How happy you are with some contractor is sometimes not defined by what they did well but defined…read moreby how badly they messed up. While I appreciated his input during the design phase and his work ethics, the mess on a couple of camera installs has left a completely bad taste. When the pre-wiring was done for the security camera, I don't know why the pre-wire had to be right next to the light. Jacob apparently thought that it was going be a sconce - but communication is important. Don't assume - if not sure, ask. So his pre-wiring would be fine if it was a sconce but definitely not OK for the flood light. Even after that happened, I knew that there is no way the camera would fit. And I told him that it would be OK to have the wire come down and then mount the camera below the light. I was really surprised when he told me that he was able to fit the camera and the light. When I checked later, I was shocked at what was done. Not only the floodlight jammed into the camera doesn't look nice, it also cuts off all the light to that side of the house. When I mentioned this issue, he offered to fix it but at this point I don't know how one fixes this since there are additional holes drilled into the siding and the rock that would be visible to make the thing even worst. I certainly did not expect this level of goof up when you pay a professional to do a job. One other thing to add is that when the pre-wiring was done, he kept talking about using toning to figure out the location. Fortunately, I had taken pictures to help with that - otherwise I think he would be spending a lot more time to figure out the speaker locations. This was my time getting a home built - so I did not know what to expect but I would that a professional would know to take some good pictures/measurements so that the finish phase is easier.

Andy also looks out for your best interests in terms of the work he does as well as minimizing costs and un needed work. I called regarding an issue with a bathroom light fixture. Andy could have charged me a service fee to come look at it. Instead, he recommended that the LED lights were not correct and of inferior quality. He suggested going to their showroom and getting the right qualify bulbs. Worked like a charm! Michelle took care of everything. There are a few things that you do not want to risk shoddy or incompetent work on and electrical work in the home is one of them. AC Electric is the best.

I can't recommend Rudy enough! He came in after another installer (Armando) completely butchered a…read more$10,000+ audio/video project and left me hanging with shortcuts, mistakes, and half-done work. 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!

Install the fantastic alarm system with cellular backup, which is monitored 24/7. I have my technicians cell phone number so if there's ever a problem, I can give him a call and he answers quickly and lets me know if there's an issue but so far no problems and the system looks fantastic. The prices are very reasonable for the product and service they offer. There are a lot of unscrupulous companies out there trying to rope you into long term monitoring contracts as that is the gravy of recurring revenue for alarm companies (I was involved in that industry) in my experience and dealing with them, but this is not one of them. Very honest and always happy to help. You can always reach someone which is so important. Today's customer service is lacking with many companies and at least with Granite Peak, I haven't had to worry about that. 5 stars all the way!

They promised to come back the next morning. We could not get a hold of them after that to answer our questions and finish the job. They just disappeared. We were highly frustrated. I happened upon Stan and Honu Experience after that and it truly was a 'whole nu' experience. Stan was straight up and showed me that our receiver was partially blown. He showed me how the previous individual had 'rigged' the wiring to partially work.....it gave us sound but not true surround sound. I really appreciate the fact that Stan was not afraid to show me the bad news and let me decide how to proceed. I happily went with his recommendation and got a new receiver which he arranged at a great price. Stan took the time to explain the system and showed us clearly what to do. Thank you Stan!!
