Chris Foy is an expert at what he does, but beyond that, he is someone who puts heart into his work and takes pride in making sure that a job isn't "just good," but rather perfect. When I posted the job on Thumbtack, I got a lot of responses, but ultimately chose Chris, and I am 100% thankful that I did, as the job came out even better than I even hoped for. Chris did it all for me - he ran over 46 Cat-6 cables throughout my >3k sq ft medical office space, installed a ceiling speaker system throughout the office, installed a router, switch, and patch panel, and installed a CCTV system throughout as well. He and shomari also helped set-up the network. Chris also makes as many trips as needed to finish the job without nickel and diming. He is also a genuinely good hearted person. His side-kick, Shomari, who helped with much of the work is equally brilliant, skilled and kind. I genuinely enjoyed having them in the office, and to be honest, will miss their presence. With that said, if I ever have a follow-up question or need additional work done, I know who to call. Thank you Chris and Shomari!

Chis was prompt in responding to my request on thumbtack. I was able to show him my requirements on video chat which was helpful for both of us. He was upfront in his cost estimates and we were able to come to an agreement on costs that included labor and material (the project was to install one Ethernet wired outlet in the basement with the router in a different area in the basement).
Chris confirmed that his crew will wear booties - which was one of my key requests.
Chris informed me on the ETA and landed up very much on time and his 2 man crew worked efficiently. There was one minor mishap which was that the team hit a pillar in the first cut for the 1-gang outlet box and had to cut up another hole. They were honest with me and I told them to make another hole. Chris gave me a blank outlet cover and I plan to screw that in myself. The crew asked me for a garbage bag and cleaned up the debris fully.
Overall great job at a reasonable price.

Chris and his colleague did an excellent job hiding coaxial cables. My apartment looks infinitely better thanks to them. I’m very pleased with the work and highly recommend Cables First, Corp.

Christopher and Robert came out on a Sunday to help troubleshoot and rewire some old telephone cabling during the middle of my basement remodel. Couldn’t ask for a nicer set of guys to help you out in your moment of need.
