I have never had an experience like this. I was transferred 6 times, processed my request 2 times, and was offered "discount deals to stay over 20 times on the call.

We had an amazing experience with this local, truly family-owned security company- N&D Security. So…read morewhen you call the company, owners Son-Mom duo (Perry & Sally) are going to pick up the phone. From the very first call, they were friendly, knowledgeable, and made us feel comfortable choosing them. There was no upselling, in-fact Perry convinced me to drop some unnecessary equipment (which would have otherwise added to the invoice price). The installation went smoothly, and the team (David, Nathan and John) took their time to explain everything clearly and answer all of our questions. What really sets them apart is the support after the installation. Anytime we've had a question or needed help, they've been quick to respond and genuinely happy to assist. The owner, Perry, dropped by a couple of days after installation to help us out on an issue. It's rare to find a company that truly cares about their customers the way they do. It feels great supporting a local family business, and we feel much safer in our home because of them. We did thorough due diligence for a couple of months and are happy to work with N&D Security. Please don't consume your time in unnecessary google searches, look no further and select N&D Security for all your security needs. We highly recommend this company to anyone looking for reliable, honest, and top-quality security service. Thank you N&D Security family from Chaudri family.

From the initial coordination with Perry, with whom I was in contact with to set this up, through the final installation, the experience was excellent. The technicians, John and Nathan, were outstanding: professional, courteous, respectful of my home, and exceptionally knowledgeable. Although I was in meetings for much of the installation, they worked efficiently and independently, and everything was completed seamlessly. Their expertise and attention to detail were evident throughout the process. The system itself is excellent, and the installation was done with great care (and for an affordable, reasonable price). Most importantly, I now feel significantly safer and more secure, which is exactly what one hopes for when investing in a home security system. Choosing a trusted local company made all the difference. The personalized service, professionalism, and commitment to quality truly set this team apart. I am very glad I selected them for my security needs and would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone in Virginia looking for dependable, top-tier service.

That's pretty much what you want. As for "it just works," the Alarm.Com system and equipment they are a dealer for really gives you peace of mind. It's actually secure. I could not be more pleased to work with and recommend the company.

When I cancelled with a form that I have to fill out, there was no acknowledgement. They still debited my bank account. They argued that there was a 3 days cancellation policy; this 3 months after my 3 year contract has ended. I have to yell for them to promise a refund for only 1 month. I am holding my breath. If this goes on, I will take them to court.

I'm not sure I can call myself a customer, because I was never given an invoice, but I had a very…read moregood experience with Easter's and thought I should share. I had an emergency with my front door where it is old, had broken, and was a major security risk as I could not secure the door from the outside. I was desperate to have someone look at it, hoping to get any help possible, and had called 3 local lock & key operations. I had a visit from another outfit who left me with a $200 bill and no actual resolve, because the lock was busted beyond what they could fix on the spot. Easter's had given me a window prior to the other guy coming out. So, when he left, I called Easter's to see if I should still have them come out, or if the guy that came from another company had done everything that they would have done. The lady from Easter's who helped me (I feel so badly that I've forgotten her name) was so incredibly nice and helpful. We were back-and-forth via phone and email for over an hour, at which point she agreed that her technician would likely run into the same problem of the lock being so badly broken, it wasn't something they could fix on the spot. Even though they never actually came out, I felt as though they were so willing to help, thorough, and really made me feel like they went the extra mile for me, without even coming here to do the work. I'd recommend Easter's any day, and will definitely be back in the future if I need anything. Thank you so much, Easter's!

I took the box down to their shop on Joppa Road and in 15 minutes, I had a new set of keys as well as access to all the important paperwork/cash. They charged me a wopping $12.98!!! Can't say enough good things about this company. Thank you, Cindy and Stevie!! With sincere gratitude, Julie Kaczor

I strongly advise anyone considering working with Monica Escala to look elsewhere. My experience…read morewith her has been nothing short of a nightmare, and I feel obligated to share it to prevent others from going through the same. I hired Monica in December 2024 to install: 28 security cameras A sound intercom system with 18 speakers 5 access control pads integrated with the fire alarm system As for the security cameras, she agreed to install 28 after reviewing my architectural plans but only installed 16--and did so carelessly. Wires were left hanging, ceiling tiles were damaged with large holes, and I was never given access to the security system, while she retained full access and was apparently monitoring the premises without authorization. The cameras themselves were cheap, low-quality models from Amazon (under $50 each)--completely unsuitable for a commercial setting, despite charging me for a professional setup. I paid her the full contract amount for this portion, and she has yet to complete the job or give me access to recorded footage. Despite paying her half of the contract amount upfront, she never delivered or installed a single access control pad. Even worse, she had no clue how to connect them to the fire alarm system--something that should have been fundamental to her scope of work. I had to bring in my fire alarm vendor and general contractor to explain to her how to do her own job. Still, nothing got done. Regarding the sound intercom system, she was supposed to install 18 ceiling-mounted speakers. Instead, she purchased cheap desktop speakers (less than $30 each) from Amazon, dumped them on the floor, and suggested installing wall shelves to mount them near the ceiling--completely unprofessional and unusable for a public facility. Meanwhile, she continued demanding more money and delayed my entire project by over five months--from December 2024 to May 2025--causing serious disruption and financial loss. To make matters worse, she repeatedly entered the property without my knowledge or permission, even after I explicitly told her not to. She frequently asked the building's front desk for access, showing a complete lack of respect for boundaries and professionalism. Monica Escala has shown a complete lack of expertise, ethics, and professionalism. She overpromises, underdelivers, delays critical projects, uses substandard materials, and ignores basic contractual obligations. In my experience, this was nothing short of a scam.

Not only did they have the right key fob in stock, they came to my house with it. In about 15 minutes everything was done. I was amazed by their service , plus I paid about half of what the dealer wanted to charge me. I highly recommend Advanced Security based upon my experience with them.
