It went perfectly.
Description of Work: Repair of old system contacts and wiring along with setting up system to talk with monitoring company. He did it all within two hours at a very reasonable rate. He had to return because the monitoring system reverted to old phone line and would not communicate with my system. He resolved the issue and it worked perfectly.

I spoke with Bill last week and we set up an appointment for today (3/21/11) at 9 a.m. for him to take a look. He arrived right on time (I LOVE that!) and he took a look at the door. He was going to get started and I asked how much he thought it would cost. He said he charges $45 / hour with a minimum of one hour. That seemed very reasonable to me. I yanked the shim out of the door and Bill... pushed the pins in further and the door & sensor was fixed. Yes I felt like an idiot, but he did nothing to indicate he agreed with that. He then inspected the sensor to make sure it was aligned correctly. He explained to me that since it was a metal door the magnet in the sensor can be weakened, which can contribute to false alarms. When he was examining the sensor, he found that there were two magnets, probably to make up for the metal door. He only charged me $25. I was very pleased with the service from Bill and will definitely use him for any future security needs.
Description of Work: One set of exterior doors was very wobbly and when it was windy, the door would shake so much that it would trip the alarm. I fussed with those doors for an hour or so, trying to get the pins (or whatever they're called) in the stationery door to go into the door frame further in the hopes that it would stabilize the door. I finally shoved a shim in the door so I could set the alarm and called Tampa Bay Security to have someone come out and fixed the sensor (maybe it was too sensitive or something?).

We had Tampa Bay Security put in a temporary system for a house that we're working on, but haven't moved into yet. They were able to meet all our needs such as a wireless system that didn't need a phone line and wireless detectors that we can move as we work on different parts of the house. I was also very happy with the fact that they use a local monitoring company. I was very pleased with their work and they even saved me a little money. I will definitely use them to secure the house after we have all the new windows and doors in.
Description of Work: Installed temporary security system in 2 buildings (house and outbuilding) on vacant property.

Very positive experience, and I would not hesitate to recommend him.
Description of Work: My alarm system showed a fault on one window. He was able to quickly diagnose and repair it. After I paid his bill, a separate problem appeared on a different window. He fixed that also, and didn't charge me any additional money. Very good service provider.

I had check Angies list to search for a good alarm installation company. Tampa Bay Security, Inc was A rated, therefore, I called Bill Orendorf the owner of the company to come to the house to size the job, and give me an estimate. He spent the better part of 2 hours explaining to me how the alarm systems work, and consulting me on the various options. He did not pressure sell at all, He has an excellent customer friendly approach. After reviewing the estimate, I agreed to use his company to do the install. He was very flexible on the scheduling and came out the next day to do the install. Once complete he spent an hour giving me an overview of the system, and ensured that I understood how it functioned. This has been an excellent experience, in fact, the best customer service experience that I have had since relocating to Florida 8 years ago. I wish more businesses adopted a similar service approach, Bill is awesome.

The man that came for the estimate was Bill Orendorf. My experience was horrible. They did not follow through with any promises made. I don't want any one else to have an experience like this. They came out that morning and I was told I would receive an estimate by that afternoon. I waited until 6 and contact Bill. He told me he was not able to provide the bid. I then told him I could have the estimate tomorrow, which he agreed to. I have not heard anything back since. This situation was extremely frustating.

I contacted Bill by email. He came out the next week and we discussed the new alarm system and features we wanted. A few days later he emailed me a quote and a few days later he came out to install the system. Bill is one of the most conscientious people I've worked with. He traced each wire back to the source and documented everything about the old system. He cleaned up after himself and did a great job of neatly installing all the new components. We got the system set up and he explained how to use it. It took him all day to install and test the system. He did a great job!

We had been thinking about a home security system for a long time. Times are changing and so is the neighborhood. We thought about a do-it-yourself system and investigated several. But they either had too many bells and whistles or not enough bells and whistles. Nothing matched our needs. We found Tampa Bay Security on Angie's List and Bill called back within 36 hours. Came to see us the same day, did an evaluation of our home, asked us what we wanted, and promised us a quote withing 48 hours. It was higher than we wanted but then again, we weren't doing the work. We accepted Bill's offer and we scheduled the installation. Bill arrived on time, had all the material with him, worked HARD and quickly, and had the installation complete in about 8 hours. He obviously knew what he was doing. He was mindful of any mess he made and cleaned up after himself. We are pleased with the product, the installation, and the service.

Bill was able to get my "antique" alarm system up and running smoothly and saved me a lot of money. He was prompt, professional, friendly, and knowledgeable. He even replaced some small parts on my system for free with parts he had with him. He even completed the work on a Sunday! I was most impressed that he didn't just dismiss the system I had as "outdated" (even though it is old), and he didn't try to just sell me a new system and tie me into a lengthy monitoring contract. I felt he was honest and straightforward in his dealings with me. I plan to upgrade my system in the spring and will definitely call on him to do the work. I highly recommend him to anyone interested in a new alarm system as well as those whose systems need repairs or upgrading. He can hook you up with monitoring services, too.
Description of Work: I purchased a new home which came with an ancient, non-working alarm system. Bill, the company owner, reconnected the system, replaced some missing and faulty parts, re-programmed the system, and got it working again.

It was a painless and smooth process; very easy process. Bill is great to work with. He is very kind, accommodating and knowledgeable about his field. I would definitely recommend Tampa Bay Security to anyone interested in getting an alarm system for a reasonable price and knowing that the person knows what he is doing and will do a good, professional job.
Description of Work: We received several estimates from alarm companies both local and national. We were most impressed with Tampa Bay Security. The owner, Bill, is very gracious and honest. He did a thorough review of the house and gave us the most reasonable estimate to install an alarm system in our house (including keypads, siren, transformer, cellular radio, contacts on doors and windows, etc). He didn't try to sell us more than we needed and even provided some work and equipment for free if he had spares available. He arrived on time, was very professional and knowledgeable, and very accommodating. He allowed us to choose the type of monitoring contract we wanted, if at all. That gave us much more flexibility than the national alarm companies that make you agree to a particular monitoring agreement. Bill was very flexible with that.

It went superbly! Bill arrived on time, was very polite and professional. He got the information he needed, and then reasoned out why the keypad wasn't working. He put a new pad on to see if the key pad itself was defective, then he checked the wiring. He discovered that the IP address for the keypad was faulty, so he reprogrammed it. He also added contacts to a window and added it to one of our alarm zones.
Description of Work: He tracked down why one of our keypads wasn't working. He reprogrammed our alarm. He also added a window that had been left out of our protection system.

Called early in the week to set up appointmentt for Friday. I had to cancel at last minute, Bill was okay and rescheduled for Monday afternoon. He came and inspected my mother's alarm system. She had purchased it with a security plan. When she didn't renew the plan she was unable to get the company rep to come out and stop intermittent alarms. Bill changed the back up battery, removed the number for the auto dial out, (another thing going wrong with the unit) and advised that the wireless remote sensors also had batteries and would eventually need service and that he could take care of them. He was tidy, quick, thorough and professional. I feel comfortable knowing he can support my mother's security system, as I live in Massachusetts.
Description of Work: Called and set up a time for visit to our home. I was unable to be there and had to cancel on the same day. Rescheduled visit went well. Back up battery replaced and system tested.
