Project Budgeting

Budgeting Tools

Get unlimited access to our very own project estimator.

 This tool gives you the power to add all the system you desire and will calculate in real-time an accurate estimate of what you should expect to budget for your next project.

Since everyone’s budget is unique we give you four different budget ranges based on the quality of product you ultimately choose. (Entry Level, Mid, High, and Premium)

System Design

Our design team spends countless hours designing out each system to ensure, proper performance and reliability. When you choose us, you get much more than just a “quote” and we’ll be with you along the way and after to ensure your happy. 

We are happy to a design system for you to approve. Although, we find much more success when we work closely with you and design together. Well do the hard work, you get to enjoy the end results.​

Our goal is to meet each of our clients expectations. We review all your wants and needs and design with these in mind.

Every system we design is built on an infrastructure of wireless and hardwired networks, that are crucial for proper performance and reliability of your system. ​

Each living space is unique so we design and pick products that uniquely fit into each living space. Your systems need to look as good as they perform. ​

We have certain standard of quality we stand by but we know one size does NOT fit all. So we offer a large range of products form high to low to meet your specific budget while maintaining the quality you expect. ​

We always design with the future in mind. With each wire, location, equipment and control, we want to ensure your infrastructure is prepared for the latest features when they become available. ​

Scope Of Work

Model numbers and prices can be great to know exactly what your getting but at times its nice to just have a simple high level overview of what the project entails. We like giving all our projects a detailed yet simple scope of work that outlines what we are trying to accomplish. From our initial visit notes, your wants and needs, to factors that we considered we want you to have the best possible idea of what you can expect with the following project proposal. 

Detailed Proposal

Sample Proposal

A look into what you can expect to receive on your proposal. 

A simple yet detailed project overview is imperative so that each party knows exactly what is going on with each project we take on.  

We include up to date model numbers and high quality images of  each component in your proposal so you know exactly what your getting. 

Unlike some, we like to list out each products price line by line so you know exactly how much each component is and how we design with your budget in mind. 

You don’t like hidden cost and neither do we. We show a break down of everything from equipment and labour to delivery and other factors right on your proposal. No surprises. 

We lay out various recommended upgrade and downgrade options right on your proposal. You get to see how much it will cost to simple increase that screen size or to save on a pair of speakers. 

We understand plans can change and we make it easy to add or remove systems and components if necessary.

Procurement

Ensuring equipment is ordered on time, and that each unit is verified and tested before it's delivered to your home is vital for a reliable system.

Photos & Labels

Reference Photos

A photo reference of each device and its location is key to any successfully completed project. When servicing items in the future we can more easily help troubleshoot issues with you remotely using these references. 

Labels & Identifiers

All cables, wires and devices get a unique identifier. This will ensure everyone knows what each devices is, and what room its designated for. Gone are the days of “which black box/cable are you referring too…”

Network & Documentation

Network Configuration File

Current Audio Video & Automation Systems rely heavily on a strong and stable network. This is the backbone of your system. Our Technicians spend countless hours optimizing and documenting every single device that connects to the network. Any IT professional will tell you that a proper configuration and good documentation of any network is the key to consistency and reliability throughout the system. 

Documentation & Programming Files

Our technical team thoroughly documents all aspects of your projected, from site photos, equipment checklists, programming and more. We write your systems program files but you are ultimately the owner. To give you peace of mind upon project completion we send you a digital copy of the file and even leave you with a USB stick holding a backup copy just incase. 

Video Walkthrough​

Play Video

Documentation is great, but what if you could watch a quick video to get refreshed on the ins and outs of your system. Maybe show a friend or family your amazing new system. Forgot how something works… not a problem. You can easily pull up the video reference and more quickly back to enjoying what you were doing. 

Support Services

We provide the latest standards in cables, wires, programming and equipment to ensure you have the best technology. Today’s audio video and IT technologies are highly reliable, but occasionally, a system can malfunction. Similarly to when your phone suddenly freezes, your emails won’t send or a phone call drops. Sometimes it’s easily fixed with a simple reboot but at other times it needs more care. In the rare times these things come up we offer many ways to get in touch and we are always here to help!
