The team at Poseidon Systems are great! My builder left a bunch of unfinished wires and they were able to hook up everything and look very professional. They were on time, respectful, and cleaned up afterwards. Pricing was very good too. Highly recommend!

Used them for a security system, and they were very diligent about working with me to make sure that the very complicated project was done right. Importantly, it did not feel like they were trying to up-sell me on anything, unlike the quote that I got from ADT.

Alex quickly responded to my request regarding TV installation and mounting and offered an extremely fair price for the services requested. He was professional and communicative in the days leading to my appointment. On the day of installation, Lucas arrived wearing a mask and followed safety precautions throughout his time in my home. The task was completed in an efficient fashion but was incredibly well done. I will certainly use Poseidon Systems for any future home theater or security related needs!

These guys are great! We did a major house renovation a few years ago and our contractor brought in Nick from Poseidon Systems to do the alarm system and a few other low-voltage items around the house. Nick did a fantastic job. He was very careful and strategic about where to place the various sensors around the house and was very thoughtful about the installation, testing all of the sensors many, many times to make sure they worked as intended.

As we've lived in the house, we've had Nick back a number of times to add items to the system. He has always responded to our calls quickly

Update : I have included email conversations with the business, telling them about the mistake they made, with them acknowledging the speakers were in the wrong place and they weren't sure why, even offering up excuses. And as seen in the email, this correspondence was a little over a year ago. A very dishonest business that blames the customer for their mistakes, does not take responsibilty for fixing the mistakes they make even after acknowledging in emails, and then denied making the mistake all together when called out. I would not do business with this company if I were you. If you do

Excellent full service A/V work and advice. Alex came to help move outlets, hide cabling, and mount an awkwardly shaped WiFi access point. He did a great job. I would highly recommend Poseidon System's service and planning hiring again for additional work in the future.

Alex did an excellent job. He was friendly, reasonable,and professional. He hid the wires for 2 mounted TVs and patched up a hole in the wall from a previous electrician who incorrectly attempted to hide the wires. We will certainly use him again!!!

Alex was super knowledgeable and responsive. He put in the overtime on a Friday night to get all of our AV setup as we moved into our new home and as we were planning a Super Bowl party at the same time. Great service!

Had a 10 year old in wall speaker that was not working properly. Alex came to my house, and diagnosed the problem as a loose connection within the speaker, removed the speaker, was able to repair the speaker (needed soldering) and reinstall. He was prompt , courteous , priced fairly and was a pleasure to deal with overall. Would highly recommend.

Alex assembled a TV stand; mounted a 55-inch TV to the stand; installed a soundbar; made all connections; and explained it all to me including operations of the remotes.

I found Alex to be knowledgeable & skilled, also friendly. I am certain I will seek out his services when I need them again and I am grateful for his service.

I'm giving 4.5 out of 5! (But it doesn't show up that way with the stars unfortunately)

If you have a custom television installation as we did, Alex did a terrific job. We had a large HDTV to place above a fireplace on a wall with 6-inch wood slats. Without going into the details, it got complicated between drilling homes to hide the wires. He came back to paint afterwards, still keeping to the original price despite the extra time spent to complete the work.

He does more than TV installations, with increasing demand for home automation/integrations.

He can make recommendations,

Alex unmounted a 50 inch plasma TV in the house we were moving from and mounted it in the house we moved to. I purchased a soundbar for the new house, and he installed that as well. I asked him to hide the cable box for a clean looking installation, and he did that as well.
He's extremely nice and does great work at a very fair price!

Alex has now installed two TVs for me on separate occasions and once again, I'm very satisfied with the work he's done. I booked the second TV installation recently and he was able to accommodate my schedule nicely. I will definitely be calling him in the future for more work, and he is someone who I would absolutely recommend to my friends and family. Top notch dude.

Great experience with Alex.

Had him come to mount two big screen tvs on concrete pillars. He was very Professional and knowledgeable. Two drill eating concrete pillars didn't stop him from getting the job done. He even cleaned up after the job.

Would definitely recommend and hope to use again.

Alex and Randy overcame numerous unforeseen obstacles including a covered up window.
The result was an excellent on budget timely installation. I highly recommend Poseidon Systems.

A week ago, the wife and I decided that we wanted to mount a TV on the opposite side of our cable connection wall. I went on to Yelp and searched "Mounting TV." I sent the same message to each business describing the job for which I was looking to do to include a photo of the room. Each business wrote back some more detailed than others but the common thread which I discovered from each company was that they wanted to run the cable wire around the room via staples then concealing the wire with wire-mold.

After much debate we really thought the wire-mold was tacky and we wanted the wires

Alex's bid to mount our TV was far lower and he had overwhelmingly positive reviews on Thumbtack. He arrived on time and go right to work mounting our TV on the wall. He'd had experience with the mount we purchased and completed the project in under an hour. He was very professional and the TV looks great. Definitely would hire again!

Alex was amazing. We had a very intense job. He mounted a tv, soundbar, and large floating entertainment console. He created new electrical outlets, moved the cable box, and wired around 2x4s in drywall. All in all it took about 7 hours and he never took a break. He brought his own vacuum and cleaned. Everything was centered and aligned perfectly. Initially I thought the price estimate was high but after the work I watched him do it was completely justified.
