His analysis ended up saving us more than we spent to have him come out!The recommendations did not decrease our services either. He knows all the ins and outs of audio visual equipment and was able to quickly adjust connections so our remotes work the way they're supposed to. We plan to hire him again to install a flatscreen tv system.
Description of Work: He did a cost analysis of our existing internet/phone/cable tv/security systems. Then he fixed several problems with connectivity

Before beginning any work, William came by to survey my current set up and make recommendations on what parts/equipment I needed, and suggested I obtain those prior to him coming over to do the work. He understood what I needed/wanted from the start. For scheduling, we went back and forth a bit until we connected. He texted me when he was on his way, was punctual, and immediately got to work. A few hours later, all was working satisfactorily. I am very satisfied with his work and I now have a very happy teenage daughter who can have friends over in the basement playing video games and watching movies/TV with a surround sound system that actually sounds like it should. Great job.
Description of Work: I needed our basement audio/video set up fixed.... sound quality was poor and not set up properly for surround sound etc. Needed some general cabling, and de-cluttering of wires behind system etc.

There were a couple of scheduling delays after the initial estimate the. When he did come out he was unfamiliar with the system we had and during his estimate visit did not notice that we would need extension power cables for the cameras which then needed to be ordered so again the job was delayed. The cameras work fine but the finish work was a little sloppy. Where all of the cables come together at the main unit he just left a whole, no cover plate of any kind. We here he drilled wholes for the individual cables to come through the ceiling he did not even try to clean up the sheet rock mess.

Response from William David Design Group
I appreciate Member's feedback regarding the work we did on his camera system. The cables shipped with his cameras were too short to install two of the cameras. It wasn't discovered until the day of installation when the cables were opened and laid out to confirm length. Member was not charged for my return visit after the proper length cables were ordered and received by his daughter. As for the drywall dust I thought I had cleaned up as good as possible considering there was bird (Cockatoo) feces strewn throughout the house. Normally, I would have declined to do the work and refund the coupon based on the unsanitary condition and clutter the house. I this case, Member was disabled and bedridden and I felt compelled to do the work his daughter requested on his behalf.

I am so glad I took advantage of the Angie's List deal! William was prompt in returning my call, and worked me into his schedule. He was friendly and helpful with organizing my electronics. He completed the set-up quickly, efficiently and is very knowledgable. I am very happy with the results and finally have music again! I would definitely recommend him!
Description of Work: I had been putting off having someone hook up my tv and speakers for quite some time. I wanted my TV to work with my stereo speakers and wanted to add a Blu-ray player. Everything was set up to work together beautifully!

Excellent workmanship. It took longer then I anticipated, therefore more money, but that was my bad estimating. I only say this because you should anticipate it taking longer than you think. He was working the entire time he was there and did an incredible job. I dont think he could have done it in any less time and have it come out as nice. Would use again.
Description of Work: Installed a wall-mounted flat screen and hooked up the surround sound system (BOSE). The ceiling speaker wires were already run, but the wires for the front and center were not. He mounted them along side and below the TV.

I received great coaching throughout the process and a fantastic end product. William accomplished all my goals with a result that far exceeded my expectations. He is the "real deal"!
Description of Work: William was incredibly knowledgeable. I originally thought I wanted to go in a certain direction, which would have been utilizing outdated technology. He did not push his solution, but offered it as an alternative. His suggested solutions were all excellent. And he did that throughout my entire experience with him. I had a particular problem with a DISH sling set up and William was super tenacious and after a herculean effort, he got my sling working despite DISH's very poor customer service (not my usual experience with DISH I might add). I would recommend William to anyone who needs television, cable, stereo, wifi or any similar services. After the work he has done for me, I wouldn't consider using anyone else.

We purchased an Angie's List Big Deal for a two hour consultation. Mr. David arrived promptly and spent the time going though our systems and making, what seemed like, excellent suggestions to optimize the equipment we had. He is going to send us an estimate to do the work he suggested.

William was a bit overwhelmed with work from the Big Deal he'd had, so it took a little while to get him to the house and get things started. However, when he arrived for the estimate he was polite, friendly and thorough. The day of the installation he was supposed to arrive at 1, but was a bit late (but communicated with me by phone to let me know what was going on). He arrived with a helper, who was also polite and professional. They got the TV hung quickly, and unpacked and set up the sound system. There were some difficulties with getting the configuration correct, which led to a trip by him to get some new cables, but he returned quickly and everything was almost done at that point (his helper was running wires to the speakers while he was gone). All in all, it took about 3 hours, start to finish, and the work was solid. Except for right next to the TV, which is a mass of cables (not his fault - there's just a lot of cable involved in this installation) everything looks very professional, and my neighbors (the only people who have seen it) were as impressed as we are.
Description of Work: William hung our large TV and wired in our sound system, Uverse box, and DVD/VCR combo.

William Parr is very personable and knowledgeable. He has made several trips to our house to complete the work. The stereo and TV sound are REALLY GOOD, which is not easy to do in a large, high ceiling space with lots of hard surfaces! We are happy with the work he has done and think the impemented solutions should be good for many years to come.

There was some trouble with the Harmony Remotes but he knew the people to call to get the issues resolved.
Description of Work: Did a great job of setting up the Harmony Remotes and getting the surround sound system functioning again. He also saved my honeymoon pictures from a destroyed computer and recovered all the corrupted pictures as well. He also provided a case for the old computer hard drive that he picked up himself.

I bought a 2-hour installation coupon after checking the site to make sure my city was served. After calling William, I learned he was about 2 hours away and didn't seem super excited about traveling that far, but he offered no option to get my coupon money back. He came out and gave an estimate that was higher than I expected, but I felt like he knew what he was doing and I didn't want to lose the money I had already spent. He reassured me that the travel was no big deal. The day he came out to do the work, he had the wrong size cables and was unable to complete the job. The next time he came out, my husband had to help him as he strung wires down to our basement. It happened to be the day of a big football game, so my husband was a bit perturbed. As he put it, "If I'm spending $700, I shouldn't have to touch a thing." The final total ended up being even more than the initial estimate because the cables were more expensive. So now onto more positive things. The work was excellent - there were a lot of cables and things to hide and all that was done superbly. He didn't have to ruin any walls and everything looks great. He even fixed a kitchen disposal my husband was trying to figure out, so we probably made up for some of the expense through his help with that. He definitely knows what he is doing, is friendly and professional. I think the error in cable length was an anomaly for him. I have learned my lesson to call first and get an estimate BEFORE ever purchasing a coupon from Angie's List again!

Excellent service. TV was professionally wired and mounted. Got great advice about cable provider and have since changed my service and will save more in a year than his service cost. I would definitely use William David Design Group in the future. I called for an appointment and technical came by the same day to look at project and make recommendations. With a couple days he came and did the work in about 2 hours. Everything worked well. I was called that evening to see if everything worked. Well worth the extra money to but hdmi cables along with hidden remote device. Would highly recommend.
Description of Work: 50 inch flat screen TV professionally mounted with wiring under the cabinet. Electric outlet added with Blue Ray and cable wired to TV. They also consulted on Internet speed and options resultings in better quality and a lesser price.

William suggested that he schedule his appointment to mount the TV at the same time as the Satellite TV installation. It was my first experience with Satellite TV and I was lucky to have William there to discuss the installation and entry point into the house with the technician. In addition to what I initially hired him to do, which was mount the TV, he spent over an hour looking for the demarcation point (it had been walled in) so the satellite cables could be pulled. He also completed the wiring for my phone and DSL lines since the phone company was not able to complete the installation the day before due to the "missing" Dmarc box. I would not have had a working phone, DSL or Satellite TV that day without William's knowledge, experience and expertise! I highly recommend William David Design and will be using William for future projects.
Description of Work: The price of $940.00 includes mounting a 60" TV above the fireplace, purchase of a swivel TV mount, a stereo sound bar and a 35' HDMI cable.

I purchased the $79 Angies List deal. We talked within one day of purchasing the deal, but I did not receive a call back to schedule a site-visit. It turned out his daughter was having surgery so that was completely understandable. Others have mentioned lack of responsiveness, but I did not find that. When I called back, he apologized for not calling back before and made it a point to come out that day. I would say that made up for the lack of initial call back. He reviewed everything that I wanted done, agreed that it should be able to be handled in the two hours purchased and scheduled a time. He arrived early for the appointment, conducted the work in a timely manner, was pleasant and even alerted me to an issue with something else in my house. Overall I was very happy and would use him again. He is a small company - individual - so for those that want things done immediately, be patient, but he does a good job and it much better than going to the big-box stores.
Description of Work: installed and connected three pairs of speakers.

William is very knowledgable in audio/video/electronics and could present various scenarios for installing my equipment. At the time he was working on my job he was having some medical issues with his daughter and we had trouble scheduling our original appointment and following up on getting the work done but once he was on site, he worked quickly and very efficiently. I was very impressed at how well he cleaned up everything behind himself even when he had to leave one job unfinished for several days until he could get the correct part in. He gave me a correct estimate of the job cost before the start of work and his figures were right around his estimate at the end.
Description of Work: Mounted a flat screen TV in Master Bedroom on the wall adjacent to the bed. Ran the power cables and cables for the cable provider through the wall and installed them behind the TV with the cable box so that they would not be seen. They had to provide the bracket for the wall mount because our bracket had been left in our previous house. Installed another flat screen TV on a extendable tilt arm in a cabinet on the bottom floor of the house. Then located the cable connection in our crawl space and connected it to this location. The bracket for this TV had to be ordered twice since the first bracket that was ordered did not fit the back of the TV; obviously we had a model that was a little older and most units have now gone to universal sizing.

Overall we couldn't have been more pleased.
Description of Work: We purchased a sound system through Amazon. My husband tried everything he could to make all the necessary connections. He knew he was close but was missing one step. He called to set up a time for someone to come out and set it up for us. William David Design Group called within 20 minutes and spent 30 minutes on the phone walking my husband through all the steps. The sound system was now working. We offered to pay for the help but they declined. They could not have been more helpful. We would not hesitate to use them for future audio visual needs.

He reviewed our existing Home Theater that currently was not working and recommended upgrades to get it up to date. He provided a quote with multiple different pricing options. We selected a quote and then he ordered the parts and when everything arrived, he came and installed it all. It took about 1 day. He provided training and addressed all my concerns. Then he told me to keep a list of issues and he would be back in a week to fix. The also at the last minute agreed to install an apple tv to our system at no extra charge which was very nice of him. We only had 2 minor issues and he came back and fixed them. I love the system he installed and I have no issues with it. It works perfectly.
