All the interactions have been positive. They have earned 5 stars on this review because if any of my neighbors, family or friends ask me for a recommendation for an A/V company I wouldn't hesitate to provide them with Livewire's contact information and website.In the future when I find myself in need of upgrading my current system or adding new components - there is no other choice for me other than Livewire in Richmond, VA.Todd HurstTodd Hurst ★★★★★ Everything was great!

Thank you, Livewire!Zach GuionZach Guion ★★☆☆☆ When you call they don't have someone in the store pickup so I waited 3 days for a call back from sales. Sales doesn't have access to their inventory and cannot confirm what speaker brands they carry for me and wanted to call me back again after finding someone who knows about speakers. Bought my speakers elsewhere.Ryan DankoRyan Danko ★★★★★ The technicians were on time, polite, friendly, knowledgeable, thorough, and organized. They didn't leave until they were sure I was comfortable with everything they had done and that I knew how to use the products.Priscilla RenniePriscilla Rennie ★★★★★ Livewire came to the rescue once again for us.

They removed the existing setup quickly and kept me in the loop while installing the new one - there were differences in the systems which required some decision making as the new system didn't entirely fit into the old system's place in some ways.

Grant was awesome!Ashlee RandallAshlee Randall ★★★★★ We recently built our house and hired Livewire to wire for the TV’s, in home network and security system. They also supplied all of the equipment (tv’s, routers, etc). What made the experience working with them stand out was working with Patrick, Andre and Granr. I had worked with Andre in the past so I was familiar with his easy going approach to ensuring we had what we needed on the front end. He was always very patient and would alway respond to our questions throughout the project from a sales perspective. It’s evident that Andre cares about his clients.Patrick is on the technical end and was responsible for the wiring and installing the equipment as well as managing the project from start to finish. We couldn’t ask for someone who was more vested in not only doing an excellent job but also going above and beyond to make us happy. He is very knowledgeable and is a creative problem solver, as this work certainly has its challenges! Like Andre, Patrick is passionate about his work and it shows.Grant recently assisted us in fixing some of our window sensors that had gotten mixed up due to a repair we had to our windows. Grant was extremely responsive and went above and beyond in helping us.I would highly recommend Livewire!S RawlykS Rawlyk ★★★★★ Livewire quickly solved the problem! Grant was excellent (as he was last time he helped us out). He’s got technical expertise, but can translate that in a way that even I can understand. Great experience.Mac MarshallMac Marshall ★★★★★ Patrick and Andre were great to work with as they completely revamped our security and audio visual systems. Attentive and available, and genuinely interested in making us happy.Scott TurnerScott Turner ★★★★★ The Livewire team did a fantastic job designing and installing my home A/V system and network upgrade. The installation team of Bill and Chris were extremely efficient in their work, and they ensured that I understood how each system operated as completed their work.Jeremy CoxJeremy Cox ★★★★★ Our tech was efficient and thorough, friendly and patient.Jason SimkoJason Simko ★★★★★ Grant was great, really professional and took care of our issue and explained what was wrong.

Love Livewire!Flour Garden BakeryFlour Garden Bakery ★★★★★ Mario, Ben, Zack, and the entire Livewire team were so easy to work with. They came to our office to view our conference room, take measurements, and listen to our needs. They then provided a budget friendly package that met our needs. The installation process was quick and the tech is easy to understand and functioning perfectly for what we needed. Thanks!Brad StrouseBrad Strouse ★★★★★ Jim and David came out this morning to replace my HDMI cable on my television. I was amazed at how quickly this was taken care of. They were very organized and neat. All of my questions were answered. They both were very pleasant.Patti MadisonPatti Madison ★★★★★ Great company. My old subwoofer had stopped working. I reached out to LiveWire (after talking on a few forums and some friends 'in the biz'). I asked LiveWire what they though about a replacement subwoofer I was thinking about., Their response mirrored what I'd been told, so I could tell they were honest.I figured buying from a local retailer was a better idea than just online as the price was the same. It is nice to have near support. Well, I placed my order, I nearly immediately got confirmation. Then soon I was told the item was shipped from the warehouse and given the tracking number to follow it to LiveWire.I saw it got delivered and within a half hour, LiveWire contacted me to confirm it was there. Stellar level of communication. I had told them I'd not be able to pick it up until Saturday. I was told they would be closed but to call Brad at home and he'd swing buy and open up for me. Wow! Real customer service. I was able to swing by on Friday and get it so that 'white glove' was not needed.From my interactions, I would not hesitate to call on them again and I am comfortable in recommending them 100%Time machine forward a few years....I have a fully networked house, I did it myself, but... I had a few bugs and not the tools or expertise to solve. So LiveWire to the rescue. I called, set an appointment. Grant (very capable and knowledgeable) came a few days later and identified what was wrong and resolved it. Pricey but worth itI still am 100% comfortable with calling on them to solve my problems.William DWilliam D ★★★★★ Fast, efficient service. Grant was on time and corrected the issue immediately.Darl JewellDarl Jewell ★★★★★ Grant came for doorbell extenders installation - very efficient. System worked well, and he answered all questions.WaltMary MaloneWaltMary Malone ★★★★★ Excellent group of professionals, thorough preparations and high quality products installed, promptly at a fair priceJose M SantiagoJose M Santiago ★★★★★ Mario with Livewire recently came and upgraded my church’s audio system. It was dated and needed some work. Throughout the whole process, Mario was there to help! The impact the new audio system has made during worship is amazing! If you need a trustworthy and kind person to come do your church’s AV and production, Mario’s your guy!Reagan MyersReagan Myers ★★★★★ We reached out to Livewire back in February when we decided to upgrade our home theater setup. A company that Livewire later acquired did the original setup for us in 2006, and it served us well over the years, but we were more than ready to upsize our tv screen and catch up to the latest technology for live TV and streaming (a big leap forward!). We decided to replace our existing entertainment wall unit to accommodate a 65-inch TV, and after working with Andre (sales) at Livewire to develop the upgrade plan and equipment selections, we ordered a custom-made wall unit that provided the necessary dimensions. Knowing that it would take 90-120 days to have the wall unit manufactured and delivered, Livewire ordered all of our equipment and components (television, Apple TV streaming device, Sonos sound equipment) and held them in their warehouse. The install was scheduled shortly after the wall unit was delivered and in place. Bill and Jeff completed the install over several hours and did a great job. They were extremely knowledgeable, had everything working perfectly before they left, and gave us a good tutorial on the functionality and features of our new equipment and upgraded services. We are really enjoying everything! Andre, Bill and Jeff were very responsive and great to work with. We would highly recommend Livewire! Can't wait for college football on the 65-inch HD screen!Robert P.Robert P.js_loader
