The installer ran a little late, but I did get a phone call letting me know that he'd be about 30 minutes behind. The installer hooked up my surround (I had old cables and he replaced with new) --- he made it sound better than it ever had before. He did a great job and was in and out in less than 30 minutes. He explained the services he performed and gave me a brief tutorial on how to use my remotes with the new sound set up. Very well worth the money to save me all the aggravation to try to do it myself.
Description of Work: I needed someone to come out and hook up my new Samsung 46" TV to my surround sound.

I was very impressed at the level of detail the installers went to to ensure that each tv was in just the right place. The two installers did a very professional job at a reasonable price. I'd highly recommend them.

Requested an estimate over the phone and initially asked them to provide the two new TVs and a new receiver along with wall mounts for two TVs. After checking prices we found we could buy the TVs cheaper ourselves so we did that instead. There was absolutely no pressure to buy their equipment. We set up the date about ten days after we settled on the service and Brent came out to do the work. There was a little hiccup due to the wrong receiver being sent but it did not have a serious impact on the time. Brent did everything discussed and adjusted the bid accordingly for the changes we made that day. The work took about 6 hours overall. That includes having to go back and get the right receiver and reviewing the remotes with my husband multiple times. Net impact on changes made on price was break-even. I did forgot to remind Emily I was an Angie's List customer so did not get the 10% labor discount. Remember to let them know! Overall, very pleased with the outcome and Brent's service.
Description of Work: Install an outdoor TV on brick wall; mount a TV and supply the wall mount; set up wireless TV system with surround sound and outdoor, multi-room speakers; provided a new receiver.

Houston Custom Installers were pretty good. They are very good at responding. It is web-based so every now and then they have technical issues like servers going down. They are local company which is good. It is pretty easy to get a response. They do lots of different things, mostly around automation, so if you want your stereo or your lights automated they do that.

These guys were very professional -- the installation looks great. They had great attitudes and were excellent problem solvers - they listened to us and had solutions for pretty much everything we threw at them. Would highly recommend.
Description of Work: I had Houston custom installers install 4 flat screen TVs in my home with in-wall wire installation. This included one TV that was installed above a fireplace with wires coming out of the wall on the side of the fireplace. They also installed infrared repeaters so I could easily use my remote with my peripherals inside the bookcases. The price also includes all the slim mounts (150-200 each) and a number of extra long HDMI cables (probably somewhere around 12-14 of those). I also had a "two story cable drop" done in one room where there was no current coaxial hookup (that was $199 by itself).

Timely arrival. Completed work in estimated 4 hours, which included a ridiculous but expected amount of time with Comcast on the phone.
Description of Work: Replaced old cable box with new one that has DVR. Programmed new universal remote control that now allows me to operate primary and second TV, BlueRay, CD changer, and outdoor remote speakers, all from the new remote. In addition, overall check-up of all 5 speakers in main room to ensure they are optimally working.

Installation went bad but it was due to the installer, company made everything right in the end but was a painful experience none the less. Equipment pricing a bit high but since I did not want to deal with it that was ok for me.
Description of Work: Bought 50 inch TV had it installed and had prvious TV installed in bedroom, bought audio equipment and had that installed as well.

HCI came to my new home before it was completed, did a survey and made recommendations. Upon agreeing the work scope and components to be installed, 2 technicians had the system running in less than one day. Several TV's were involved including one that was in my previous home. All work was completed to my satisfaction and they were careful to clean up and explain all of the services they had completed. Subsequent visits were made and the technicians always arrived on time, wore booties over their shoes, had all of their needed tools and cleaned up. I will call them any time I need additional work and would recommend them to my friends and associates.
Description of Work: Obtained and installed complete Home Theater System in my new home. The work went so well I called them back to obtain and install additional equipment in other rooms.

Everything was done pretty quickly; he cleaned up after the installation. I am very happy with the work and the price and would recommend and/or use them again.
Description of Work: Installed television over fireplace that had been prewired; installer made some suggestions about how I could install the cable box, dvid player, and my apple TV to the side so that there would be nothing on my mantle--this was a good suggestion because, though more expensive than just installing everything on the mantle, it all looks much neater with the components to the side. And, I can actually use the mantle for decorative purposes if I want. He ran wire; used some of my cables and provided those I didn't have. After everything was installed, he checked to make sure all components worked properly. When there was a problem with one of my cables, he quickly changed it out and made sure again that everything worked. He was very patient and competent.

They were very professional, young men that came in and they knew exactly what they needed to do. They had to drill holes in the wall and they got their own sweeper to clean up after themselves. Everything was done to our liking; it was just very professional.

Houston Custom Installers were recommended to us by the company that did our relocation. They came out and gave free estimate. Although it was higher then the other estimates we got they were the only company that offered a no price change guarantee. We bought all of our equipment from them which was all fairly priced and I know because I shopped everything. They were about 10% below retail but a little more then amazon but they were safer so it all balanced out. They finished our project on time and within 10% of quote even though we upgraded a few things and they under quoted a thing or 2. Over all it was a great experience from the time we called to the time we wrote the check. We will use them again.
Description of Work: They mounted several TVs, designed and setup a minor home automation and lighting control unit. They also did our home theater and whole house audio system.

The price was the biggest thing. Their price was $150 to mount the TV, and run the wires around the wall. Other companies charge $300 or more. Plus, they won't use another company to mount. The price made a huge difference. The guy that came out was on time. He showed up at 9:00am to do work. He cleaned up after himself. He put shoe covers on his shoes. The installer was nice and professional. He knew what he was doing.
