"My company has an offsite warehouse way out in the country about 15 miles from our main office. We wanted to add surveillance at the warehouse so we don’t have to go out there to check on things as often. We purchased an adt camera package and it has really helped cut down on our travel time. Simple but effective way to add surveillance to our storage warehouse."

For over 35 years, American Home Contractors has provided exterior household services and upgrades across Maryland, Washington DC, and Northern Virginia. American Home takes great pride in ensuring customer satisfaction and commits to delivering the highest quality of work when renovating any home.

"American Home Contractors and Hugo in particular were great to work with. We had multiple jobs done which required several trips and Hugo kept us informed and worked around several weather delays. He relocated and installed a new attic fan, hooked up the bathroom fan to a new roof vent, insulated a pipe in the attic, installed apron flashing on four windows, painted the flue vent, reconnected some lose siding and replaced three pieces of rotted trim and painted it. The work appears to be top notch and we appreciate the hard work and long hours Hugo put in! I would definitely recommend this company and most certainly Hugo to everyone. We also had American Home Contractors replace our gutters and install gutter guards. They did an excellent job with that as well."

"We had a short circuit in an electrical branch that in all three floors of our home and the exterior. We lost power without the circuit breaker being tripped. Corridon Electric, whom we have used before, sent Sean to our home to diagnose where the short was. Mike, who assigned Sean, told me that Sean was the best at locating these types of issues. Well, he was correct. Sean was exceptional. He located and repaired the outlet that caused the power disruption in less than an hour. We are happy to be repeat customers of Corridon Electric and will continue to use them for additional work. Thanks again, Sean."

FAQs for alarm or security system installation projects in Richmond, VA

If you terminate your security system before your contract ends, you’ll likely have to pay a cancellation fee—often a percentage of the remaining contract balance. To avoid these fees, consider choosing a brand that offers contract-free plans, like SimpliSafe or Vivint. You can also negotiate with your provider to see if they provide pro-rated cancellation fees or special exceptions.

Paying for a security system is a valuable investment because it enhances your home’s safety and deters criminal activity. With millions of property crimes each year, having robust security measures helps protect your property and might even lower your insurance premiums. It's a worthwhile investment for lasting peace of mind.

The average cost to install security cameras ranges from $125 to $3,500, depending on the amount, type, and placement. To install a complete setup of four cameras, homeowners can expect to invest an average of $1,300 for labor and equipment. Installing multiple cameras gives you comprehensive coverage of vulnerable entry points and enhances overall property security.
