David Audio & Video Installations

When it turned out that the TV & mounting bracket we had bought weren't suitable for the wall-mounted installation we'd planned, David went with us back to the store to buy the right ones. He then installed the new wall-mounted TV, relocated the old one, and hooked up the DVD players to each. He connected the digital boxes we'd had sitting around for months (because we didn't know what to do with them!) and dealt with our electrician, with Bell and with Rogers to get all the sets properly connected. It was a lot of work, but we felt the cost to be good value, and the work was very neatly done. Technologically challenged as we are, we particularly appreciated his patience in explaining to us the operation of the new set-up. Our only regret is that we did not know about David earlier: then we could have involved him in planning the new installation from the outset! We are grateful to have such a knowledgeable and helpful resource available to us in Owen Sound and have no hesitation in recommending him to others.

We have had the pleasure of having David service us with electronic aid on two separate occassions. Very professional, deligient with attention to detail. He went out of his way to ensure that we were satisfied with the final product.

David installed a TV and sound bar in my bedroom. He is quite experienced with audio installations and he was careful and meticulous in dealing with all the wires involved. Works well and looks great!

David did an amazing job ! Definitely recommend him ! We are very pleased with the result and would call him again if we needed another tv wall mounted !

David hung our extremely heavy plasma TV on the wall (125 lbs). The cost includes the cost of the bracket and the labour involved in hanging the TV. He did a great job, very happy with his work and would strongly recommend.

David helped get our tangled mess of wires turned into a neat, orderly and easy to use home theatre system. I would use him again in a heart beat and am so happy we hired him. He had wires there for purchase at a fair price if we needed (and we did need) and also gave us useful tips on how to better our sound quality etc. TOTALLY happy!!!

Where to begin; simply put David is an absolute professional. It was a privilege and a pleasure to have David come to our home to mount our TV as well as set up our home theatre system.

For those who would like to read a quick review, I will simply say that you will find no one better on Homestars to assist with your audio and video installations. David takes the time to listen and understand what exactly it is you want and need, and then his skills take over from there, completing the job to perfection. You would be doing yourself a great favour by hiring him, and I would not hesitate to hire again or recommend to family and friends.

I contacted David on a Wednesday hoping he could come asap to set everything up, as we were planning on having our housewarming party that weekend. Even with the short notice provided, David was able to squeeze us into his schedule at the last minute, making it to our place Thursday evening. Knowing this would not be a quick job, he showed up on time around 7:00 pm ready to work. We did not make this job easy, as the very first thing I needed help with was to hang a very heavy mirror back up onto the wall; this had nothing to do with the job itself, but I needed some assistance to get the mirror back up and he was more than happy to lend a hand.

For the job itself, given that I live in a condo, and the wall is solid concrete, getting the mount up takes some effort. Additionally, it turns out that we are not allowed to drill past 5:00pm in our building, and given that we started the drilling at 8:00pm or so, it wasn't long before I received a noise complaint. With the request form the concierge to continue another day, I was able to get us another ten minutes to get the job done. I could see the urgency in David to get the drilling done as quick as possible and we were able to get the drilling done within the next ten minutes. During that ten minutes, David could have easily been done sooner by taking a shortcut and using smaller screws, however, he knew it would be best to use the larger heavier duty screw, and got the drilling done and got it done right. I know he got it done right because when the mount was hung up, he could literally hang off of it which makes me know for certain, that TV is not going anywhere.

After the TV was mounted on the wall, we moved on to setting up the home theatre equipment. David was able to conceal and tidy up all the wires, and love the way the final set up looks. He took care to ensure that I was happy with the set up before moving on to the next job. Once the audio and video equipment was in place, we were breaching 1:00 am. It was a long and late night, but yet David plugged away, never losing his charm. Before the night was over, he offered to help calibrate the audio and glad he did, the system sounds great!!!

He even followed up shortly after simply to check in and make sure everything was ok, as mentioned above, a true professional with a genuine focus on customer service.

To finish, I hope you have found this review helpful, and the good news is your search is over, David is your man without a doubt and I look forward to working with him again in the future.

David was extremely professional, efficient, and cost-effective. I asked David to help with the set up and callibration of my home theatre system - he was able to get all features working, speakers callibrated, and wires hidden and out of sight in a very short period.

Extremely happy with David's professionalism, and quality of work - GREAT value.

David installed an antenna and digital tuner at our house in the Riverdale area of Toronto. We now receive 15 channels -- all Canadian stations, as well as NBC, ABC, CBS, and PBS from Buffalo -- free. It will take 2 years to payback the installation cost, but worth it -- reception is usually superb -- we are particularly pleased with PBS reception. There were a number of problems to solve with the installation, including intermittent audio, which turned out to be a setting on the tuner. David didn't want to be paid for coming out again to clear up the issue, but we paid anyway -- he straightened out the wiring for our surround sound audio at the same time. Knowledgeable, hard working, attentive to safety issues with the antenna (needed grounding) made him a joy to work with. High recommended.

I was moving and needed help dismounting, transporting, and remounting my 55" LCD from my old place to my new place. I called David and we discussed the project over the phone. He gave me an honest assessment of the cost and effort required (a rarity).

On the day of the move, David was prompt and did the work with care. We encountered some unforeseen circumstances when re-mounting the TV at our new house, and David walked us through the options thoroughly and clearly.

David is conscientious worker and he did a stellar job. I can't recommend him more highly.
