Data, Network & AV Wiring in Venice

Many single-family, in-wall low-voltage projects are permit-exempt, but multi-unit buildings, new construction, fire-rated penetrations, or exterior conduit often require an LADBS electrical/low-voltage permit. We evaluate your scope, advise on requirements, and, when needed, obtain permits and coordinate inspections so everything is compliant.

We specify UV-rated outdoor cable for exterior runs, use gasketed boxes and stainless or powder-coated hardware, add drip loops, and select corrosion-resistant keystones and connectors. For exterior devices like cameras and APs, we use weatherproof enclosures and apply dielectric grease on exposed connections to extend service life.

Cat6 supports 1–5 Gbps and is ideal for most home runs under 180 feet. Cat6A is thicker but supports full 10GbE at longer distances and provides better noise immunity—useful in multi-unit buildings or when planning for multi‑gig internet and 4K/8K media distribution. We’ll recommend the right mix based on route length and goals.

Yes. We use non-invasive fishing techniques, borescopes, and stud finders tuned for plaster to minimize openings. Where access is tight, we’ll plan strategic junction points or use surface raceway that can be painted to match. Preserving your finishes is a priority, and we patch and paint any necessary access holes.

Absolutely. We can bridge ISP gateways, deploy your own router, and hardwire APs for coverage. If you prefer to keep your ISP router, we’ll optimize placement, set proper channels, and integrate wired backhaul to reduce interference and dead zones throughout your home.

Most installations finish in 1–3 days. We stage the new network in parallel to minimize downtime and typically perform switchover in under an hour. If permits or Coastal Zone reviews apply, overall timelines extend, but the in‑home work remains efficient and minimally disruptive.
