**★★★★★ — HU-206050359, Sept. 2023**

> We had a burglary earlier in 2023 and were looking to add to our alarm system with exterior cameras and lights. We were given Sam Hess’ name and contacted him.  First-off, he is very responsive. He made an initial visit and gave us a proposal and references (all we’re positive about Sam and his work - it’s not often that everyone gives a 5-star rating, but he’s gotten them). Sam was willing to brainstorm with us to meet our goals and price-point. The work performed by he and his sub was done in a professional and efficient manner with attention to details. We feel so much more secure now and have the greatest respect for Sam.

**★★★★★ — Mark Przybylski, Sept. 2023**

> prompt always willing to help if there is a problem, goes the extra mile.  Cleans up after his self does a neat tidy job.  Highly recommend Sam.

**★★★★★ — Shawn, April 2023**

> Sam is an expert in his craft and produces quality work! He considers multiple approaches to a task before arriving at the most sensible long-term and future-proof solution. He has the experience of running large scale deployments, while being accessible and affordable to small to mid-size businesses and homeowners. He set up the network and A/V infrastructure for my entire house and it's very well organized and continues to run smoothly. He's very flexible in the way he works, and also adaptable should your project needs evolve. He's an easy going, responsive tradesman with a strong work ethic. Reach out to him if you need help—he'll take good care of you!

**★★★★★ — Seth Brooks, Feb. 2023**

> I found ‘Grow Modern Audio Video’ to be one of the best decisions that I made when I did a ‘down to the studs’ full renovation of my 3000sqft home. They were able to meet me at my price point, and maximized it, to produce a state of the art modern home with full audio visual, to all areas of my home, inside and out. I was blown away. I found them to be extremely knowledgeable of the latest tech that allowed my home to synchronise with a whole world of technology that home owners can enjoy today. Nothing was too difficult for these guys. They worked very hard, ensuring that delivery was made by the deadlines the project demanded. They went over and above to see this outcome. They were honest. They were professional. They were excellent. Thanks Grow Modern. You gave me an outcome that exceeded my expectation when I started the project. I now get to live in this ‘teched out’ house for the rest of my life. So good!!!

**★★★★★ — new\_industries, Feb. 2023**

> Sam installed Lutron smart lighting throughout our new home. He got the project done on time and his pricing was fair.  No complaints at all. With work like this you just want everything to go smooth and it did. He was even good at installing lighting on our 20ft ceilings.

**★★★★★ — Ray Culver, Feb. 2023**

> Sam was the best partner for this project!  From the initial quote visit all the way through to completion, Sam was great.
