Home theater rooms designed around how you watch
From a media room in the basement to a dedicated cinema, we design and install the screen, sound, lighting and controls so movie night just works.

A great home theater is a system: the right screen or projector for the room, speakers placed for even sound, lighting that dims on cue and a remote that does it all with one button. We plan every piece together so it looks clean and performs like it should.
We work with new construction and existing rooms, run the wiring before walls close when we can, and integrate everything with Control4 if you want scenes like Movie Time that lower shades, dim lights and start the show.

Pro tips
Before you book.

- Plan the wiring before finishes go in.
- Choose one simple way to start the movie, such as a remote button or Control4 scene.
FAQ
Home theater: common questions
How big should my home theater screen be?
It depends on room size and seating distance. We measure the space and recommend a screen or projector size that fills your view without straining.
Do I need pre-wiring for a home theater?
Wiring makes a big difference. In new construction we run speaker, video and control wiring before walls close. In existing homes we can often fish wire through walls and ceilings.
Can you add a theater to my basement?
Yes. Basements are popular for theaters. We plan wiring, speakers, seating and lighting around your layout.
Can I control everything with one remote?
Yes. We program a universal remote or a Control4 system so one button starts your movie.
How long does a home theater installation take?
It depends on scope. A simple TV and sound upgrade can take part of a day, while a dedicated theater with new wiring takes longer.
TV or projector for my theater?
TVs are bright and simple. Projectors offer a larger image in a light-controlled room. We recommend based on your space.
Do you handle acoustic treatment?
We can advise on panels and layouts and coordinate with your builder.
