We had a fantastic experience with Running Cables! The team performed work in a townhouse without an attic. The entire process was very smooth from initial contact to completion. The quote provided was very detailed and clear. On installation day, the team arrived on time and did a great job! Brad provided very helpful suggestions and answered all of our questions well. We highly recommend working with Running Cables.

Running Cables was a pleasure to work with: they responded within a business day to my quote request on their website, and their staff likewise followed-up very quickly with emails during the back-and-forth project planning.They quoted me a fair price, and scheduled the job quickly (within 2 weeks), and their installers arrived promptly at the agreed-upon time. They were pleasant and helpful, and approached the work with a great deal of care and professionalism. For example, they needed to access the attic as part of the installation and before venturing up through my wife’s walk-in closet, they laid plastic tarps over all the hanging clothes so they wouldn’t get dusty. Attention to detail like that matters a lot, and I’ll definitely work with Running Cables again as a result.I was entirely satisfied with the entire experience and the installation work!

They answered all my questions well, and communicated frequently to accomodate my needs. Highly recommend!!

Running Cables did an extraordinary job! Every single one of my requests (even last minute changes) were done with excellence. For me, they ran ethernet cables to various rooms of my house and terminated them into ports. Their work is very neat, tidy, and professional.

Really happy with the service and the job the running cables team did. The whole process was smooth and they worked with me from the get go, to understand exactly what I wanted (sorry for all the emails and questions haha). They started on-time, cleaned up afterwards and finished faster than expected. All in all, I am super happy with my little home network setup and highly recommended the Running Cables Team if you need to run cables for your home or business. Thanks again Running Cables!

I apologize in the delay for this review. It should have been done last year July 2023. Randy was so helpful and patient to facilitate our job. Brad and I kept going back and forth on how many cables I wanted to run, what I was expecting, where was it going to be run, etc...so many emails with questions and not once was there a rude tone or sound of frustration or agitation on any of the calls. They really put my mind at ease. They were kind to call/email me back with a response really quickly. This action in itself speaks volumes. To date, everything is running smoothly. My spouse can work from home, my child can do their school work, I can do my work with minimal disruptions. They solved many of our "WIFI" signal issues in certain areas of our home. Hard-wiring is so much better than using "WIFI extenders." Will definitely use them again! Thank you for everything!

I used running cables for a Starlink installation. They were professional from engagement to implementation. The installer, Brad and his colleague were very professional, patient and took their time to ensure the job was done to the highest quality. We had an issue with the wrong part ordered and they were happy to come back to rectify the installation.

I was looking for a company that could help me install an ethernet cable going from the ground floor down to the basement below, which would need to travel down through an exterior wall. I contacted a couple of companies but felt they were overcharging for the type of work involved. I then contacted Running Cables and appreciated their prompt communication and professionalism. They also went above and beyond by agreeing to arrive at my house at 7am to accommodate my schedule. They showed up on time, did good work, patched up my wall and ceiling, and cleaned up. 10/10 would recommend them.

Amazing service, they did the install exactly as I was hoping for. They relocated the coax, and installed several cat-6 lines through our home. We have an old home, with many quirks, but they were able to do everything I wanted. They were friendly, responsive, g and very professional. They even did the job in half the time, and for less cost than they originally quoted (which is a first for me!) Definitely recommend!

Call this one a "six months later review" or just a "fashionably late to get this one up" review.I connected with Jonathan a few days before our installation on Dec 23rd, 2021. I covered what we were hoping to achieve with his team. It was a growing concern for us with the number of wires we had lying around in our family room that was fully exposed. We also had severe issues with the opposite side of the house not receiving Wi-Fi signals. Finally, Wi-Fi kept tripping while playing online games from the basement, and could we hardwire a point to gain access to a stronger signal.After listening attentively to all of our concerns, Jonathan, step by step, took me through the various solutions/options that we could consider. Ultimately, he could not guarantee the strength of the Wi-Fi due to multiple factors outside of the cable plans. This included the network hardware I was using, the provider we had, what internet plan we were on, etc.He took the time to relay the information to his team, and they were able to provide a detailed quote which to me felt very fair for the work that needed to be completed. Overall, it would take a half-day. By the way, Jonathan is highly accessible – every time I called or texted with a question, he responded promptly. We even had a video chat so I could walk him through the house so he could assess what his team would be dealing with.We agreed on a course of action, and fortunately for me, he had a cancellation that week itself. His team was able to come in sooner than expected. His team carefully cleaned up all the protruding wirework, sealed up the holes where the cables were coming from and cleaned up the living room of any further nuisance from the wires. They then went to work fishing cables through the basement to the centralized location that we thought would be the best fit for our family.The team did an excellent job of helping us get a super clean look with the finished product. Everything is now hidden behind the bookshelf. The hardwired cable is now available for the gaming console. The best news of all, even 6 months later, the Wi-Fi works throughout the house, and there are no more empty pockets of space.Jonathan and the Running Cables crew – thank you, folks, so much for all your support and dedication. Also, I highly appreciate the follow-up from Randy to check in on how things ended up post-installation. These folks know how to take care of their clients. With no hesitation whatsoever, would I ever not recommend this team for your residential services!
