Anthony is the guy you want for this job. Professional, knowledgable, and efficient....... He listens to your needs and gives you more than you expect. Even when I couldn't figure out the "FILTER FIRST" concept, he made a special trip back to the apartment building to educate me. And he's about the nicest guy you want to meet.....we were happy to have him with us. Give this man your business!
Description of Work: He rewired the entire 6 unit apartment bldg. that still had the original wiring from 1938.

This vendor was very responsive in answering my initial request via Angie's list (e-mail only) and proceeded to arrange an appointment on Memorial Day. He was delayed about 2 hours from his originally scheduled appointment time (hence the "C" grade on punctuality). However when he arrived he proceeded to not only quickly diagnose the problem but also quickly come up with a solution that was efficient and non-invasive. He not only corrected the problem but also made sure the solution did not adversely affect the DSL service we also have. Throughout the job he was courteous and professional and made sure to let us know he was going to be in the area the next day and to be sure to call him if we had any problems or issues. His charge was the same as his initial quote even though I cautioned that the problem may be more difficult to solve. All in all a very professional and conscientious professional.

Marchant arrived on time, we went over exactly what I needed done. I had a phone jack that was not connected to the pole. Things were prewired already in the house because we were in the tail end of a remodel but the jack was dead. It turns out the jack was not physically connected to the wiring inside the house and the pole service was not connected in the panel on the outside of the house. Marchant tested lines, found the one we needed, hooked up to the jack inside the house and fed the service to the connections on the outside of the house. Then MArchant pointed out a sloppy connection that the cable guy did and he cleaned that up and redirected the cable so it wouldn't interfere with the enclosure that was housing it. He did this without my asking. He just did this because I could tell he is a person that is proud of his work and even if it wasn't his job if he could fix something he would. I love that in a service person and I had to tip him because he asked for no extra money. Use this man!
Description of Work: We recently finished a remodel of our home but we needed our phone service hooked up. We called the phone company and they were going to charge an outrageous amount for connecting the service. In our remodel we had prewired for phone but the service was never connected. Marchant Anthony (feel free to call him Marchant or Anthony) was great. He was knowledgable, prompt, if he couldn't make the time he called to let me know and adjust our appointment time. I had to reschedule a few times because my schedule is opposite all normal people, and he was very accomodating. He even cleaned up some cable wiring from the pole to my house for which he did not charge me but I tipped him nicely because I appreciate the extra attention to detail with out prompting from me. I will definitely use Marchant again to hook up my Cat-5 data feeds.

For months, we had heard static on our land line, which my wife uses for her home business. We called AT&T twice and they performed some kind of remote test, which revealed no problems with the line. (They said it must be the battery in our cordless phone or the wiring in our house). We called Marchand and he showed up on time. It took him about 10 minutes to diagnose the problem: faulty wiring from the phone pole to our house (AT&T's line). Marchand called AT&T, explained the problem to them in technical terms and set up a service call for that same day. (Typically, they didn't show up until the next day.) In the meantime, Marchand called back twice to follow up on the problem, just to make sure it had been solved. He charged $65 for the service call, which was well worth it just to get an accurate diagnosis of the problem. AT&T finally came to inspect the line and found it had been chewed through by squirrels. I would definitely recommend Marchand, he is very professional.
Description of Work: Marchand checked the wiring and jacks inside and outside our house to find out the source of static on the line.

Marchand Anthony is a very nice, likable, professional person. He and his team-member Tony added our new phone line from the box on the outside of the house and also while under the house added 2 Ethernet lines so I could connect to our Blu-Ray and 2nd Office directly without using the inconsistent wireless connection. It was another great Angie's List find for me. He drove a long distance from San Bernadino to West Hills and kept me apprised of his arrival time. We tested everything before he left and it all worked. I am very happy and will use him again when needed. I highly recommend 'Anthony' the Phone Medic.
Description of Work: Wired new landline phone inside our 1959 home. There hadn't been a landline in the house since we purchased it. Installation of 2 Ethernet cables to our media service and second office.

We had lost all phone service and had called ATT for a repair. They could not give us an appointment for over 2 weeks. That was bad news because we work from home. We called Anthony yesterday and he came out this morning. He found the problem (tested all phone wiring, jacks and exterior box ) and correctly rewired and fixed it. He explained everything he was doing as he worked. Our phone was working within 30 minutes of him getting here. He also gave us a written 6-month guarantee on his work. It all went very smoothly and he was very professional. We will now be calling him whenever we have phone trouble and will recommend him to friends.

We lost all three phone lines (Office, DSL & Home) in the heaviest period of the rain. Anthony was here wihin 2 hours of being called despite the fact that he had never before done work for us. All 3 lines were temporarily working wihin 1 1/2 hours and were permanently repaired 4 days later when the rain stopped. The problem was caused by a short in the internal wiring in a crawl space under the house. Because of the fact of the age of the house and multiple renovations there was a maze of telephone wire to sort through to tract the problem. Anthony was knowledgable, time efficient, accomodating, extraordinarily pleasant and fairly priced.
Description of Work: Tracing a short through a maze of phone wires, many of which were no longer in service, to restore service to 3 phone numbers that had gone dead and / or were full of static during the heaviest of the pre-Christama rain storms.

Anthony successfully installed internet jacks in my house and also trouble shot on going issues with static on our phone lines. Anthony used his meter to pinpoint the problem and replace a line as well as upgrade some old phone jacks. The line is now clear and I have internet ports in the bedrooms. Great job, very professional and I highly recommend him if you have any phone issues.

Marchant was a pleasure to deal with, extremely courteous and personable, very conscientious about keeping me updated on arrival time and explaining in detail what he was doing. I watched him as he went through the myriad available lines going up to our office suite, checking to see which had the best signals. He got the job done quickly and close to his original estimate (only went over because we added some requests when he got here. The phone company was going to charge me $230 to do this, and couldn't come for two weeks. Marchant came the next day, charged $100, did it well. Awesome.
Description of Work: Marchant hooked up the two phone lines in our office after the phone company had connected the lines to the main phone panel in the basement of the office. He also put in a couple new jacks as the old ones were in bad shape.

Overall it was an excellent experience. The service tech had a busy day ahead of my call but kept me in the loop about his ETA. When I found out he was coming from far away I offered to reschedule but he insisted on coming as planned ... driving through downtown LA at rush hour to do it.

As our office building apparently was built to withstand a nuclear attack, two of Anthony's drill bits couldn't dent the walls and the third he bought specifically for the project broke after nearly making it through. He worked with us three days total, spending several hours getting the project done. After all was said and done, he only charged us for 4 hours of work at a very reasonable price to begin with (1/2 the hourly rate of the verizon guy and 3/4 the rate of other nearby competitors). Definitely would do business with him again.
Description of Work: We wanted to use existing wiring from a previous office tenant to add two more lines to our system. After extensive investigation with Anthony, it was clear that using old wiring wouldn't be possible and we'd need to drill a hole through the wall to add an entirely new wire.

Anthony was exceptionally responsive and thorough in his work. He always kept in touch about when he would come, and understood exactly what we needed. He did the job exactly as requested, pulling a new phone line under the house and attaching it cleanly to the exterior wall. He was thoughtful to ask about the color of the house so that he could bring almond colored wiring instead of standard white for a better blending in. He also checked out the quality of the DSL connection and a few other phones. He was honest about what we really needed to get done. Will 100% call Anthony again next time I need work done.

Anthony showed up on time, looked over the house and reduced his quote based on the work that he saw he had to do. The completed the jack work in about an hour and tested the jacks in front of me to make sure they worked. He is very pleasant and professional and much cheaper than the phone company. Highly recommended.
