Techsystem

Our modem in the basement was giving us weak wifi signal and as a home based bus we need high speed throughout the house. After getting a few quotes we called Adrian based on his homestar reviews. He was honest, up front, answered all our calls and text before ever coming out and when he came, he took the time to survey the house, understand our needs and then worked on solutions with us within our budget. He has fished all the cables in our home and I don't see any holes or any cables. We now have ethernet wall jacks in the basement, main floors, upstairs and backyard. We have ethernet to the smart tvs as well. We also don't have any messy cables hanging around. Adrian was professional, his work was clean and he cleaned up after himself as well. He also saved us money by allowing us to buy our own switches that were on sale. A true, honest professional with great prices and quality service. A pleasure to work with and I would recommend his services anytime.

I just moved into a townhouse in Newmarket. This is my second time using Adrian for his network cabling service. I am amazed at Adrian's quality of workmanship. He had to cut into some walls and did it perfectly behind baseboards so there are no visible patches or holes. I don't know how he did it, but he managed to get all 3 levels of my townhouse re-wired with Cat6 cabling. He also did an amazing job of terminating the lines by my modem. Each cable is neatly finished. Adrian is a perfectionist. I would definitely recommend Adrian.

I can't explain effusively enough how great Adrian is at what he does.

My entire house is cabled. There are LAN cables to TVs in the basement, main floor, 2nd floor living room and my bedroom. All cables are hidden in the wall. This wasn't an easy task as my basement is finished.

I don't know how he does it, but Adrian is always able to find a way to connect wires. His work is extremely neat, he is very detailed.

His prices are reasonable too.

Adrian did a great job on re-wiring the 50-year old house we purchased for Cable TV & LAN. He pulled the cables , installed the new outlets in the rooms that we chose, also updated & checked the existing outlets (phone ones). The wires were neatly terminated & organized in a wiring closet (Adrian also provided the 8-port GigE switch for LAN connections) All of this was done very efficiently & professionally. Upon completion he verified that everything functions as expected. We are very happy with the job Techsystem did & would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone who thinks of doing similar projects.

I moved my office into what used to be a small living room. So, I had to wire the room for internet and a phone cable. While I was doing that I decide to wire the 4 bedrooms and office upstairs as well as a television. I also moved my modem to the basement and added a modem just for the wireless on the main floor.

Bell would not come out as they will not go through walls. I called other ethernet companies but most would not go through walls. The only other one I tried who would do so gave me a quote but did not return my call afterwards, which was fine because I knew, after meeting Adrian, that he was the one I wanted to use. Where the other company stated everything would be easy, Adrian was honest about what would be easy and what would not be easy. I liked his honesty and the fact that it was clear that he was experienced and knew what he was talking about. He was quick to point out that the advice I was given, to put the switch in the attic, was not safe. (During the installation he located it neatly just outside of the attic on the wall above a door.)(5th picture below)

Adrian came out first to see what needed to be done and gave an idea of what he thought it would cost. The actual cost was within the range he originally quoted me. He took the time, in-between the first visit and the day he came out to do the work, to discuss the many, many questions I had about the process and products to be used. He was always patient. He listened to my requests and provided what I asked for, even though it was not common (such as shielded cables).

His work is meticulous. He is neat and tidy, always cleaning up after himself. He did not cut into the walls if he did not have to and he patched them up and only cut the smallest holes when required, patching the hole with the drywall that was cut out! (I have provided photos below.) Any of the cords that were run were neatly bundled together. The modem in the basement was placed in a metal box, neatly and with extra cable in case it was needed in the future. Walls that were hard to reach through the attic, because of the slant of the roof, he still managed to drop the wires down to the locations we discussed.

Because of some difficulties he encountered as a result of wiring an old home - such as having to cut through a metal sheet blocking the way for the wiring to be dropped, he stayed late until he got the job done. He also provided ethernet cables for the jacks he put in.

So, as you can see from the above and from what others have posted, Adrian is professional, honest, reliable, patient, meticulous, tidy, organized, and very competent! I would have zero hesitation using him again or referring him to others (as I am doing here).

I reached out to Adrian after another company stated they could not wire my house as I had hoped (majority of the lines fished). Adrian was recommended, and I'm lucky he was.

Adrian came ahead of time to assess my home and give some thoughts. He later came back and worked two long and consecutive days to wire my home. He took very few breaks, and worked diligently into the evening to get the work done. He did his best to avoid making holes in the walls, and when he did, he patched them up. The job was not easy, and my house was very challenging for the work. But the results are fantastic. Each room and floor of my house is wired for ethernet jacks and wifi access points. He even drilled a hole to allow my internet to be relocated to the basement, which my ISP was not able/willing to do.

Adrian is clearly experienced, knowledgable and very skilled. He's also patient and understanding - he worked around my baby's sleep schedule to ensure minimal disruption while still getting work done.

I cannot recommend Adrian and Techsystem enough, and I'm recommending him to anyone who needs wiring done in a clean, competent and professionally done way.

All I can say is AWESOME! Adrian is a diligent, hardworking, neat, and knowledgeable wiring expert. He was able to get wires to places that I never thought could happen without breaking walls...but Adrian got them all done without so much as one hole showing! He spent 2 full days running CAT6, hdmi, speaker cable, mounting several tv's, a projector and the projector screen. I can't say enough about what a great contact Adrian is: he is honest, reliable and he is the best in the business. An A+ for sure!

Adrian came it at a last minute request and did an excellent job running multiple Ethernet wires to the exterior of the house for security cameras. Adrian was very patient, listened to my needs and suggested great solutions. A true expert that can be trusted. I will be retaining Adrian to wire up the remaining areas of the house and installing a few wireless access points. Looking forward to working with Adrian again

This was the second or third time I had Adrian help me with a project. We completed a home theatre in our basement and I needed help installing recessed surround speakers in the ceiling, along with HDMI cabling, speaker cabling and ethernet cabling throughout the walls. All of the cables ran back to another room where they had to be connected to the theatre receiver.

This was a big job. There were a ton of wires, and Adrian made them disappear from sight. He was able to have all of the wires, modem, network switch and power centralized and out of sight. He even ran further cabling in the house to incorporate a Sonos system (indoor and outdoor) with some legacy speakers we had.

I am so glad I found Adrian through Homestars. He is intelligent, hard working and reliable. He listens to what you want to accomplish and gives great ideas into how it can be done. He is also reasonably priced.

Thanks again Adrian! We will highly recommend you to neighbours and to everyone on this site!!

This is my first review and I have to admit it takes a lot to force me in writing one, but my recent experience with TechSystem was exactly like I was hopped for but never thought possible.
Found TechSystem on HomeStars, sent an inquiry from their website and got in touch with Adrian the very next day.
I was lucky to have him available pretty soon after the initial contact.
My request was about running 6 ethernet cables between my basement and several room on the first and second floor, including the cabling for an access point
All was done in around 8 hours and I now I am a very happy customer: nor more WiFi issues to worry about.
This was just an Exceptional experience; Adrian is an amazing contractor;
-very courteous, ready to help, good listener
-very knowledgeable, he provided essential feedback before and during the install
-he found the best solutions to avoid any dry wall cut: really impressed
-clean work: cabling was neatly done, tied and labelled, he took his time to make sure everything was left in the original state, I had nothing to clean afterwards
-he made sure everything is working as requested and I am happy with the install.
-price was fair for the amount of work and especially the final quality
All in all, really impressed with Adrian, he is a reliable contractor and I will 100% recommend him to anybody looking for a similar help.
