Not every company will say this, but we will: if you're tackling your own home surveillance install and hit a wall, we're happy to step in and help with just that piece. No judgment, no pressure to hand the whole job over. We don't sell equipment, so there's no profit-driven motive behind our advice — just honest, experienced help when you need it.
If you've done the legwork and just need a professional to get you unstuck, that's a perfectly fine reason to message us.
We also make an exception for our elderly customers — if getting out to source equipment is a challenge, we're happy to pick it up on your behalf so the job gets done without the hassle.
Since 1994, Chris Williams has been the technician that other technicians call. From the early days of consumer AV to building Audio Video Advisor from the ground up, every installation is backed by real-world expertise — not just a manual.
Audio Video Advisor was founded on a simple belief: every client deserves the same level of expertise, attention, and honesty — whether it's a single camera or a full commercial surveillance network.
With 31 years in the field, Chris brings a depth of knowledge that simply cannot be replicated by newer companies. Every job is done personally — no subcontractors, no surprises, no hidden fees.
"Self-motivated, polite, professional, on time, and no hidden fees." — HomeAdvisor Review
