Pre Wiring

Building a new home or remodeling your current residence? Chances are good that your contractor has mentioned pre-wiring, but you may be wondering if this is something you want to add to the list. Let’s discuss why pre-wiring makes good sense.

Future-Proof Your Home

It’s true that we cannot plan for every technological possibility the future will bring. However, we know what types of wiring will be most beneficial in the near future. Pre-wiring also allows homeowners a little room for growth. Perhaps you don’t want surveillance cameras or in ceiling speakers right now, but with the proper wiring in place you can add them in a snap with minimal added expense.

Resale Value

Maybe you’re not a music fanatic or a tech savy individual, but the next person buying your house could be. When buyers are making the tough decision about which house to buy, the home that gives them flexibility and options for lifestyle changes will show far better than non-wired comparable homes.
Simply having infrastructure in place can make for a quicker sale and even increase the resale value of your home.
If you purchase homes to improve and sell, this is a perfect avenue to add value and features that will make you stand out from the competition.
Let us help you add value and features to your home and/or business that you may not even be aware existed.

Hide Wires and Equipment

Remember the days of having amplifiers, cable boxes, bluray players and all that ugly electronic equipment sitting in a stand under the TV? Well say goodbye to all that unsightly equipment because you can now locate it to a centralized closet or cabinet that is all out of site. Regain that valuable floor space in your rooms!

Protect Your Finished Home

We can retrofit your home with just about any wiring that may be needed. It’s not an incredibly complicated process, but opening up walls to get the job done is very common. If repairing drywall and repainting is not something that sounds desirable, consider having us run those wires before those walls go up.

Some homeowners skip the pre-wiring step, claiming that a wireless system will accomplish their needs. It’s definitely true that more and more data can be transmitted wirelessly, but not everything can. Consider your home theater or even just everyday TV viewing needs. These days with PVRs and cable providers giving the ability to record and watch multiple shows on multiple TV’s, wires are more important than ever.
There’s much more to pre-wiring than setting up amazing home theater systems. With the proper wiring in place, you can control systems all over your home. Below is a list of some systems that benefit from proper pre-wiring:

Audio/Video Distribution
WIFI and Hard Wired Networks
Security Intrusion Systems
CCTV Camera Systems
Lighting Control Systems
Window Shades
Home Theatre
