He arrived sooner than expected which I felt he respected my time and valued me as a customer. He arrived with booties so he didn’t mess up my floors. He did the job efficiently and took his time to mae sure it was done correctly. Good person to work with. I will definitely reach out. This was an emergency as my scheduled installer had to reschedule today for later in the week. I reached needing to get my TV mounted so I can watch my NBA playoff game. He came through in a clutch. I thoroughly impressed by his work.

Excellent work, great price, and awesome service! Rich was professional and knowledgeable, and the install was clean and high quality. He even took extra time to touch up the speaker grills to make sure everything was black. The sound is night and day different from before. Highly recommend Rich and his team!

Richard fixed all the ethernet terminations in all the rooms. The builder did not wire them to 1GB standard. He also cleaned up the junction and looks clean. Recommend him for your wiring needs.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
At EliteTech Innovations, we pride ourselves on delivering unbeatable deals. We often beat big-box store prices or match them to make sure you're getting top-tier service without stretching your budget.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
At EliteTech Innovations, we initiate new customer engagements with a thorough phone consultation. This step allows us to discern if an on-site inspection is required to precede any installations or services. Following this, customers receive a detailed proposal. With the customer's endorsement of the proposed estimate, we proceed to arrange a suitable date to carry out the project. The completion of the work is then marked by the issuance of the final billing statement.
How did you get started doing this type of work?
My journey into the world of technology and audio-visual systems began in my early years, fostered by a naturally inquisitive mind that reveled in the intricacies of how things worked. The allure of technology was irresistible, and it led me to dismantle and explore everything within reach, including our family's first PC purchased in 1998. This early exposure to technology was the cornerstone of my fascination and future career path.
During my teenage years, I honed my skills and gained invaluable practical experience by working at an AV repair shop over several summers. This period was crucial in my development, as it allowed me to assist customers, as well as check and test a variety of AV equipment, deepening my understanding of the technical aspects of the industry.
After a period of service in the military, which instilled in me a strong work ethic and discipline, I returned to my technological roots. It was a full-circle moment that saw me launch into subcontracting work in the realms of AV, wiring, and security systems in the late 2000s. This was a pivotal step, marking the beginning of my professional foray into an industry that has always captivated me.
The experiences of my youth, combined with the skills and values acquired through my service, have shaped my approach to the work I do today. They have enabled me to build a foundation that supports my ongoing commitment to delivering advanced and sophisticated AV solutions.
