Ceiling Speakers, AV Equipement Installation and Home Security System Upgrades

Wayne arrived at our home and was amazing. He installed our ceiling speakers, hoomed up our av equipement and has been to our home other times since completing all sorts of different projects for us. His reviews on Homestars are excellent for a reason and I would without any hesitation highly recommend him to anyone.

TV and speaker installation

Wayne did a fantastic job mounting my 75" TV, Bose speakers and components cabinet! Right from discussing options before the install, getting feedback and opinions during the install to making slight adjustments after the install. He is a true professional and I will definitely recommend him for TV and home theatre installs.

Mounting of my TV in the family room

I asked Wayne to mount My TV on the wall as well as hide all the wires. He did a fantastic job! Not only did he do that, he also mounted my sound bar and hid those wires as well. Not only is the work he did top notch, Wayne cleans up as he goes so there is never any dust around.

Mounted Tv’s

Had the pleasure of dealing with Wayne from Homestarz. He came with all the tools needed to mount 2 Tvs plus shelfs. He put forth a few ideas to make everyhting look crisp and clean but always asked for my approval. I would defineitly hire him again for setting up my parents new tv in the new year.

Home theatre install

Exceptional from beginning to end. I am very pleased with the final product as it looks stellar. I was a pain asking for all my devices to be hard wired so there were a slew of cables but it looks so clean. I highly recommend and will definitely use this company again and again if needed and they are available. Thanks again, really impressed.

Mounted TV, Sound Bar, and Component Units on Living Room Wall

Wayne is the ultimate professional. From the beginning he gave me great advice, provided the TV mount to meet my needs and the shelving for my components then hooked them all up exactly as we needed them. I can't tell you how wonderful it is these days to hire someone who advises you well, arrives when they say they will, performs the work flawlessly and cleans up completely after themselves. You would never know anyone was working here except that our entertainment centre looks fabulous. Thanks Wayne, I wish there were more like you. I will certainly call you in for all our future needs for which you can help.

TV wall mount installation

Wayne did an excellent job installing the TV bracket to our porcelain tile wall. Drilling through porcelain tile is very tricky and difficult, but he managed to drill the holes without any crack. We are very happy and satisfied with his work, highly recommended!

Thermostat & wireless network

Wayne is AMAZING!!!
On his first visit - he was called to fix our NEST thermostat but ended up fixing a bunch of other problems we had. What a bonus!
The thermostat wasn't hooked up properly and he had it all figured out and working correctly in 10 minutes! Then when I mentioned issues we had with our air ducts, he made some suggestions that had that problem solved very quickly too. I then mentioned an issue with our wireless network and with some investigation on-line and trial and error, our network had much more range and stopped cutting out.
On his second visit - we called him back again because we were having issues with our wireless network again - only to find out that we had unplugged a vital component, but while he was here we discussed the possibility of hardwiring our Android box.
We loved the idea and Wayne hooked us up in about an hour. Since then, things work PERFECTLY.
I cannot say enough good things about Wayne and the service he provides. He is VERY smart, provides options for every budget and his pricing is extremely affordable.
I am so happy that he lives close because when we redo our basement, he will be the one we call to do all the wiring for the electronics and sound system.
