He and his assistant arrived on time to set up and secure our 65" Sony tv to the wall. They reinforced the tv's mounting material. It was complicated and time consuming, but they updated our Sonos audio system in 3 rooms. Then they gave us as much time as we needed to be comfortable with the new systems. They used drop cloths over our special carpets, handled our equipment with care and cleaned up after their work. After enjoying our new systems for over a week, we're sure that we called in the best team and would not hesitate to call them if we should forget something.

While I was driving with my daughter in the car, the driver attempted to hit my vehicle, then cut me off. Afterward, the driver continued driving like a maniac and attempted to follow me to my daughter's summer camp. He's very lucky my husband was not there but that's probably why he felt comfortable chasing women. Update: No response from the owner who I've come to find out was the road raging driver (yikes). But I did file an incident report and forwarded dash cam footage to SJPD.

The place was clean after the job was done. They also were good to advise me to keep my boxes for 30 days, because I did end up having a problem with a piece of equipment (nothing to do with Eddie) and have the box key to the process of getting the repair done. I would highly recommend A/V Solutions and would use them again for any AV needs.

Even after the initial installation, Basil continued and is still currently available should I have any issues. He's friendly, reliable and I'd certainly hire him again for any other A/V needs that may arise in our future. Just updating this based on a recent issue. I finally had a problem that required a Sunday text to Basil. My A/V universal remote had stopped working only a few months after buying it. Basil reached out to the vendor and was able to approve me for a new remote. For context, the remote in question is highly sophisticated and needs back end programming with a laptop to have it control everything. $1500 price tag. Basil went above and beyond to help me out with the fix. He's a stand up guy. There aren't enough people like Basil in the world today.

I requested a quote to install three TVs and provided a clear, written scope room by room, with…read morephotos. All communication was in writing only. There was no phone call and no additional scope discussed beyond what was explicitly outlined. The scope also specified the exact equipment to be used: two manufacturer-included mounts and one standard off-the-shelf mount already owned and being used in another room. No custom mounting or fabrication was requested. To be clear, all major electrical work had already been completed by a licensed electrician prior to this visit, including an in-wall media box and power where applicable. The written scope did not include infrastructure planning, signal design, or custom fabrication. The work requested was limited to: Mounting three TVs In-wall cable concealment on two TVs using existing wall paths/media boxes One new in-wall outlet (clearly called out and requested to be included in the quote) No drywall repair, no structural work, no permitting Despite this clearly defined written scope, the estimate was later characterized as covering "custom mounting," "infrastructure planning," and other items that were not part of the work requested and were never discussed. The quote came in at roughly 10× higher than multiple other licensed and insured installers for the same scope. The public response provided appeared to be boilerplate and did not address the specific written scope. It even referenced "[X] years of experience" without a number filled in, which suggested the response was copied without reviewing the details of this project. Before deciding, I verified licensing through the California Contractors State License Board (CSLB) using the business name listed on their website. The CSLB records show the associated contractor licenses as expired, with a status stating the license is "expired and not able to contract at this time." Screenshots are included. For additional context, California limits unlicensed or handyman work to projects of $1,000 or less. Being quoted $5,000 for this scope made the pricing and justification even more difficult to reconcile. Experience and tools matter, but pricing and representations should align with the actual written scope of work and current licensing status. Attention to details matter as well, not clearly understanding the SOW, rushing quotes, and replies. Replying without understanding the issues. I will not being doing business with Basil as trust is important. I recommend getting multiple quotes, keeping scope in writing, and independently verifying license status before proceeding.
