  • I recently had an AV and security upgrade at my house. My project manager, Elijah, made sure all the techs were well equipped and worked with professionalism and quality. Also as part of the security upgrade, Elijah made sure my water sensor was installed properly which had caused issues beforehand. Thank you ETC for going above and beyond!
