My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsNovember 20, 2017
“One of my friend referred Fernando,from Haven & Wire for home theatre setup in my living room. I was very much impressed by his approach. He was very detailed in understanding my requirements, analyzing living room measurements & type of furniture used. He has much patience in listening customer requirements. Then,he came up with different options from speakers to receivers in specific areas like patio, living room & kitchen. Information was so detailed that helped me to really understand essence of sound in each area. During installation,he is very detailed, slow & steady and is never in rush to complete. He took care of every request we made while installation and finishing is so perfect that no one can even differentiate if the ceiling is cut and applied back. Through out the process, he is vey through, professional, active, clear & perfect. My review would not complete if I conclude here. In the whole process we encountered an specific problem where audio of from TV apps and not passed to zone 2 speakers in patio ( we noticed that this is common issue for any receivers).I mentioned that this is very much needed. Fernando took almost week and did quite research came up with multiple option. he took a day of his time came up and tried all the options one by one and provided me most workable solution. There is no reason why I should not give a 5 star rating for FERNANDO for his commitment & task completion. It was already decided that Fernando will by my go person to setup my theatre in LOFT as my next project..”
