Jenna was very thorough with the attic inspection and found mouse traps and places. Much more so than others inclusing home depot. She found the insulation damp, very little in some places and found used mouse traps. None of this was wver displayed to us before. She was far more pleasant to...
Storm Guard Roofing and ConstructionJim from Realty Solutions Group was amazing. He was extremely patient with us. As we were first-time home buyers we weren't 100% sure what we wanted. Jim took the time to explain our options and walked us through several different homes. We were VERY picky with what we wanted and we never...
Realty Solutions GroupWhile I've hired a number of home inspectors over the years to inspect various properties, I can honestly say none appear as qualified at Jeff. Rather than having worked in the trades as many inspectors, his background is in forensic investigation regarding fire cause, product failure and...
Due Diligence LLCThey are amazing. We had some roof damage. When my home was built, the roof was supposed to have a membrane that kept the snow from leaking into the house, and it was not put down. This company came in and did this for me. They are very easy to work with, they did not have high-pressure...
Over the Top Roofing & ConstructionJim and his son were prompt, friendly and detailed. They spent 3-4 hours completing the home inspection. They involved me in every step of the process so I could see the problems/recommendations first hand. They spent 3-4 hours at my home - well worth it! I plan to make as many of the...
The gentleman who helped me is the owner of the company. He bent over backwards to help me, he was great. I would highly recommend this company to anyone who needs an alarm system.

Abrahamson Services provides a wide range of services to the 4 county Milwaukee area. Anything from windows, doors, roofs, gutters/toppers/cleaning, to roof raking, ice removal and interior work
"Ken was fantastic from start to finish. I hired him to remove an old basketball hoop, pour new cement, and install a new one. The job turned out to be much tougher than expected—the old cement was nearly impossible to break up and the clay ground was hard to dig deeper for the required dept —but Ken handled it like a pro, using a jackhammer and digging through hard clay soil without complaint. Despite the extra work and materials needed, he stuck to his original price even when I asked to pay him more, which speaks volumes about his integrity. He returned a few days later to assemble the hoop, and the final result was perfect—every measurement was spot-on. Ken went above and beyond, and I wouldn’t hesitate to hire him again. Highly recommended!"

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
