Markarian, CEO Customers can email us at [email protected].

"We needed help to change over several interior ceiling light fixtures to new pieces we had purchased and we needed bigger and stronger garage ceiling lights. In addition to the work that was needed, we also wanted to request estimates on 3 projects for the Spring - installation of an exterior light post and lamp, running an underground line out to a back garden for an outlet and to fix our kitchens under cabinet lighting. Their electrician arrived promptly at the expected time and was very courteous and professional. He was very well organized and efficient. We discussed the options for the garage lights and he recommended going with 2 x 48" LED panels and we checked Home Depot online, found a good product and I went over and made the purchase. He did the installation in no time and the lighting is fabulous. Overall, great work! We got the estimates a day later and 2 of the 3 look very workable and we will go forward with Markarian for those projects. The price for the undercabinet lighting was about 10 x more than I would have expected so we'll hold off on that. Maybe I can do that one myself. ME is a reliable and very professional group and you won't be disappointed."

FAQs for home security system service projects in Somerville, MA

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
