    TV installation

    David recently installed a TV and all associated components in my home. I asked him to make it as neat as possible and left him to it - I was amazed by the results. He was very efficient and managed to wrangle a mess of cable and wires into a neat and tidy and completely organized set of components. Dealing with David was a pleasure, he called me back promptly, was available for a weekend job, showed up when he said he would and was very clear and upfront with his pricing - which was more than fair. I would definitely recommend David for any electronics installations.

    TV installation with network connectivity

    David was cordial and punctual and tidy, had a reasonable $/hr rate and there were no hidden costs - and he kept true to his initial quotation. I was satisfied with the job done. A couple of things I found a bit surprising: 1. He seemed to not know that video came consoles (e.g., XBox, Playstation) require an internet connection, which has been standard for years. 2. He didn't recognize my internet router, asking me if my modem or my hard drive backup was my router. I have a middle of the line DLink model, a popular make, and it was sitting visible on the shelf not 2 feet away from the modem.

    Answer from pro:

    Thank you for your response. I take all reviews seriously. For the sake of clarification, I am an audio video business. Networking is a specialty field in itself and it would be hard for anyone to know what every device looks like.....your router was a tall cylindrical unit, which is not the usual shape and size of routers that I typically hook up to. I am endeavouring to learn as much as possible around networking equipment. Regarding your game console, I am aware that they need an internet connection......somewhere in our conversation there must have been a misinterpretation and I apologize for that confusion. I hope that this helps with your concerns.

    Audio Video Installation

    Looking for assistance connecting 2 TV's and DVD players to stereo and surround sound systems. David did both efficiently and effectively while making recommendations for substitute connections and power supplies that he did not push, but suggested. Very prompt, knowledgeable and thorough in performing the work and very reasonably priced. Would seek to use him again in a heartbeat.

    Installing TVs without cable

    We called, he came! Reliable, prompt and efficient. Listened to what we wanted and delivered. David set up our TVs after we eliminated cable and replaced with antenna and Apple TV. We had a mess of wires and connectors. Disconnecting was easy but we didn't know how to resolve the tangle of wires. David came to the house and quickly assessed the problem and listened to what we wanted for our TV viewing. He offered alternate solutions. David installed Apple TV and an indoor antenna for local TV stations. This configuration met our viewing needs. David works quickly, explained the work and answered our questions. He maintains a very tidy work site. We would highly recommend David for any TV installation work.

    In-wall speaker wiring

    I mostly do my own work but decided to get some help in with wiring up my living room speakers through the wall (front left/right, centre, rear left/right). I called David and he was very professional and explained exactly what his process was. When I explained the work to him, he immediately mentioned some things that I hadn't anticipated when I was planning out the work that needed to be catered for, and the experience he brought to the table really helped speed things along. When David arrived he was meticulous down to the last detail and we worked together to get all the cables routed. The job ended up taking a little more time than we'd both anticipated when starting, but we hit a few obstacles on the way. I was impressed with the way David methodically analysed the situation whenever we hit a roadblock and devised a solution to overcome it. In the end, what would have been a very messy job had I done it on my own ended up being a well planned and executed job with minimal mess with David's involvement. I would not hesitate to call him again should I ever need more work doing.

    TV Installation

    Excellent service. Complete TV and component installation: ran cables and wires to TV, mounted TV, did full set-up, and tested the system. David is very reliable, prompt, and thorough. He takes his time to ensure top quality work, which is a rare quality these days. Very highly recommended.

    TV install over fireplace

    Dave installed a 60" plasma over our fireplace. The house is 50 years old and the plaster was giving way making the TV mount unsafe. Dave went out of his way to find a solution - he attached the mount through the plaster wall to the outside brick wall. This requires some special hardware (long cement screws) that Dave went to go pick up and didn't charge me for the time. The install was professional and I feel good knowing the TV is not going to drop on my kids.

    hook up of stereo equipment and HD TV

    David was thorough, efficient and very professional. He had to hook up an existing stereo system to a new HD TV including wall mounting and connecting to a PVR. He was careful in his work-he even brought his own vacuum to tidy up! David is also flexible about timing-so we could arrange a time that suited us.
