"I had the WORST experience ever with this company including the owner and the main installer. BUYER BEWARE. I REGRET using this company and these people and would NEVER dare recommend them, not even to my worst enemy. I will start by saying that I am still missing 2 plantation shutters and the tint on my front doors. My house was built brand new and completed 9/25/2018(the day we got the c/o). We waited to settle in to get the shutters. The house is brand new. Not one curtain hung and nothing to cover all the windows prior to them coming. They DESTROYED my window sills. They are now chipped, discolored from over caulking, dented and one is missing a huge chunk of wood. After I was promised 30 days from giving my deposit to installation day, 30 days came and went with no call from the company updating me on the status of my shutters and when the new installation date would be. Had I not have called the owner of the company to get a status update I would never have known that it would be an additional three weeks before they would be here to install my shutters. I was calm and patient with them and understood that it was summer and a lot of people were doing what I was and the shutter company was backed up. A simple phone call would have been the professional thing to do. Installation day arrives and the installers are running several hours late for our appointment. When the installers got here they were literally going so fast trying to get the project done and mind you I have a 3500 square-foot heated and cooled home and it was a lot of windows that needed plantation shutters. They were going so fast that one of the shutters was propped up against the window on the window sill And because he was not paying attention the shutter fell down not only did it crack in 1 million pieces but it chipped my window sill and my brand new toilet. In addition, it was discovered that after waiting nearly 50 Plus days to get the shutters in an installation day and time that they sent the wrong measurements for several windows. As a result they were unable to hang some of the shutters. I was told by the installer after making a phone call to the owner Paul, That they would get The correct shutters from Skandia within a week and be back to install. On my daughters life a month and a half went by with no phone call no update no return calls no messages no nothing on the status of the missing shutters and the broken shutters. I had sent a detailed message to the owner Paul, explaining to him all of the stuff that needed to be fixed and repaired as a result of the installers negligent behavior in my brand new home. Never one time did Paul call to reassure me that he would rectify the problem and take care of it, nor did he seem to care that I was missing shutters and that his installers had treated my home with such disrespect. After several phone calls and weeks and weeks later Paul finally decided to start calling me back to complete the project. However we were traveling much of the summer and we were out of the country and not available via phone much of the time. I tried to reach him when we got back to the country and he did not answer the phone. I called Paul left voicemails and he called me back several days later. At that point I was so frustrated and disgusted that I could not even face this guy or talk to him. I gave him a $3000 deposit on a job that was supposed to be done from contract to completion in 31 days, However it?s now been six months and I am still missing two shutters, window sills that need replaced,And have no resolution to rectifying this problem. Point blank the few times that I was able to contact the owner Paul, he was buying a boat, on the boat, at the beach house, and just did not care about his customers or the service we were receiving. BUYER BEWARE and stay away from this company. I have never been treated like this ever especially considering this was a $7000 job."

Our electrician are an important function in building and maintaining homes and businesses. We install electrical panels and power systems, maintain wiring and control equipment which uses power flow to operate. We also specialize in rewiring (commercial/residential) construction work, installing systems, or in maintenance work, fixing and upgrading electrical systems and doing repair work.
"The service was very professional, timely, and with a very affable representative of the company. He was able to discuss my options and allowed me to make the decision after he answered a few more questions I had. I chose not to use the old disconnect box by having it moved to new location despite that it would have saved me materials cost. My A/C contractor did not notify me until the afternoon prior to the installation that I was responsible for the installation of the new disconnect box. The installation had been scheduled for over 10 days so getting this news last minute was quite discomforting. He understood my plight when I called and was able to fit me into his hectic schedule. He arrived when he said he would and completed the job quickly and promptly. The service was performed diligently and Brian was a pleasure to work with."

The average cost of a home security system is about $700, ranging from $280 to $1,150. Costs to consider include equipment, surveillance fees, and other additional features. Cost factors that determine your system’s price include the type of security system, materials, labor, activation fees, monthly fees, and permits. Additional features and upgrades may include:
Video surveillance monitoring: $40–$65 per month
Smart home locks: $150
Smart home lighting: $15–$90
Smart smoke, fire, and carbon monoxide alarms: $35–$100
Smart thermostat: $130–$500
Yes, a home security system can be worth it for your peace of mind alone, but it can also save you up to 20% on your home insurance. The insurance savings will help defray the initial setup costs and subscription costs over time. Locations with higher crime rates also make home security systems a valuable investment, but it ultimately depends on your personal preferences and asset values.
With the popularity of DIY security cameras and video surveillance systems, it’s important to understand the benefits and potential drawbacks to decide if it’s the right choice for you. Advantages and disadvantages include:
Pros
Video footage readily available
Reduced home insurance
Save on labor costs by installing security cameras yourself
Wireless systems are easy to move and set up
Monitor from your smartphone
Avoid false alarms
Cons
Features may be vulnerable to hackers
No direct link to authorities
Risk of installing the system improperly, reducing its effectiveness
Whether a security system or security cameras is a better choice for you depends on your needs and preferred comfort level. A security system can cost more depending on the features you choose, but it’s a more proactive and protective approach to home security by alerting you and authorities of any emergencies. Using a security camera system is a more reactive approach because while you can monitor the camera footage, it does not alert the proper authorities for you.
Understanding the pros and cons of installing a home security system is the first step to deciding which one is right for you. A few of the advantages and disadvantages include:
Pros
Added security for your household
Reduced home insurance premiums
Many smart home integrations available
Security companies can monitor your home
Cons
Expensive setup costs
Subscription costs can add up quickly
Features may be vulnerable to hackers
Weak signal reduces the security of a wireless system
