Question AV Installer Notts. Derbys. Border

[FONT=Calibri]I have just purchased a new house and I am in the process of gutting it to refurbish before moving in.[/FONT]

[FONT=Calibri]I have a requirement for an AV Installer to: -[/FONT]
[FONT=Calibri][FONT=Calibri]1)[/FONT] [/FONT][FONT=Calibri]mount my Plasma[/FONT]
[FONT=Calibri][FONT=Calibri]2)[/FONT] [/FONT][FONT=Calibri]hidden wire my 7.1 speakers[/FONT]
[FONT=Calibri][FONT=Calibri]3)[/FONT] [/FONT][FONT=Calibri]install a projector and motorised screen[/FONT]
[FONT=Calibri][FONT=Calibri]4)[/FONT] [/FONT][FONT=Calibri]wire house for aerial distribution[/FONT]
[FONT=Calibri][FONT=Calibri]5)[/FONT] [/FONT][FONT=Calibri]wire house with Cat5 cable[/FONT]
[FONT=Calibri][FONT=Calibri]6)[/FONT] [/FONT][FONT=Calibri]hidden wire 2 speakers into conservatory[/FONT]

[FONT=Calibri]The difficult part is that the wall I would like to mount my plasma on currently has two side by side doors into my dinning room. I need these to be blocked in first and a false studded wall to be built to house the plasma and projector screen.[/FONT]

[FONT=Calibri]I have some tentative plans but I am looking for any suggestions to improve them [/FONT]

[FONT=Calibri]I have been in contact with Forum HiFi in Sherwood, and they gave me a number of an installer who wasn’t interested in doing any structural work of this size.[/FONT]

[FONT=Calibri]He promised to give my number to another installer but he hasn’t got back to me.[/FONT]

[FONT=Calibri]Does anybody know of a decent installer in this area that could do this sort of work or should I look for a builder to do the structural work first and then an AV installer.[/FONT]

[FONT=Calibri]My worry is trying to explain to the builder that I need the doors blocking up in such a way that the plasma can be mounted on it.[/FONT]

[FONT=Calibri]The good news is that the house is gutted at the moment, so that should ease the installation [/FONT]

[FONT=Calibri]I was hoping for an installer that could do the initial wiring before I decorate and then return if necessary to install my equipment.[/FONT]

[FONT=Calibri]Any advice more than welcome.[/FONT]

[FONT=Calibri]P.S. Baldybouncer I don’t suppose you fancy the trek from Wrexham do you?[/FONT]

Hi,

I can certainly help with some of this and I live in Nottingham - can you be more specific as to exactly what you need doing ?

Good luck with finding someone though. ( I am sure someone can recommend an installer close to you)

You could try giving Mark from ISEC solutions a call.

http://www.isec-solutions.co.uk/

I dont know if he will be interested but he may be able to help.

Mention that Dave Chester gave you his name.
