Arrived, installed surge suppressor within 15 minutes and was gone. Very friendly and efficient.
Crew Plumbing & DrainI recently purchased a new house and wanted to have all new locks installed. I purchased the lock sets myself and Kevin installed them. Kevin replaced two locks and installed a third. The old locks were in horrible shape and he ended up having to spend almost 4 hours to replace and install...
Bad about returning calls. Finally got an appointment scheduled then Overhead had to cancel due to lack of a replacement device and the installer was not finished on a pervious job. If I had to do it over again, I would not use this company again. The scheduler is not very helpful.
First of all, my mother is elderly and the upsell by this technician was entirely uncalled for. I believe that they should have contacted us and let us know about the install, not leave it to her. That's the only thing I do not like about ARS is the upsell. Other than that, service was done...
ARS / Rescue Rooter in ColumbiaThe work was done with the utmost care and consideration since we were at home for the entire 4 day effort. The installation team consisted of 5 of the most polite an courteous men we have ever had the pleasure of working with. When they entered the house, they covered their shoes with clean...
Called a couple places to get a quote and D & S was the only one to even call me back. Dominic came out to give a quote on a Friday and was on time and very friendly. He was able to have someone come out the next day to install the 6 outlets. They were all installed in a timely fashion...

"They make life easy and projects exceptional. Grateful to have them in Lexington, SC!

Our kitchen finally features real stone quartzite with a blend of stunning LVP waterproof flooring, elegant tiled backsplash and an entirely new lighting system from chandeliers to the under cabinet lighting. They replaced a window in the bay area to match the exterior clad. All trim was stained and by the time things were wrapped up, there were no imperfections to even address.

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

Yes, you should get a quote or an estimate from an electrician. Most electricians offer free estimates or quotes. When getting quotes, do your research and verify each electrician’s license. Get quotes from three different electricians to compare. If the prices or items listed appear different on the quotes, ask the electrician to clarify. Learning as much as you can about the electrical work you want done will help you get the most accurate estimate.
Qualified, licensed electricians will charge from $50 to $100 per hour. The cost to hire an electrician for emergency visits may range from $100 to $200 per hour because this urgent service usually takes place during off hours and may require an electrician to leave or reschedule jobs they’re currently working on. Scheduling work on holidays or during periods of high customer demand, like after a major storm, will also lead to higher rates or extra fees.
An accredited, licensed smart home specialist should install your home automation system. For example, a qualified smart home specialist will belong to an organization like the Custom Electronic Design & Installation Association. Licenses for qualified technicians require the technician to demonstrate experience and pass state testing. If you’re ready to install a home automation system, consult multiple technicians in your area to compare services and prices and find the best fit for your job.
The average cost of a home automation system is around $950, but typically ranges from $200 to $1,700, depending on the brand, system features, system size, home size, and location. The highest-end home automation systems can cost anywhere from $10,000 to $150,000, including smart appliances like refrigerators, dishwashers, and ovens that require installing extensive wiring. Any subscriptions for maintenance services will also impact the cost of a home automation system.
