Testimonials

“Custom Residential Systems originally installed a Control 4, network, and security/surveillance system in my home 8 years ago. Over time, we have gradually added to it/enhanced it and have always come back to CRS. They are knowledgeable about the industry, recommend products based on our needs (not just pushing additional products we originally thought we needed) and have continued to provide great service and support – including on nights and weekends. We have recommended the team to our friends and family and we have not regretted it.”
Elizabeth, Geneva, IL

“Custom Residential Systems worked seamlessly with our general contractor and electricians in our newly renovated home in installing panelized lighting, audio/video, security and an easy to use control system. They provided options, recommendations and guidance through each phase of our project. We are very pleased with the systems installed and our working relationship with Custom Residential Systems.”

“Our experience with Custom Residential Systems was outstanding. They installed both an alarm system and computer network for me as well as the installation of several high-end TVs, insuring that all installations were working as intended. Their personnel are consistently professional, responsive, and courteous. I highly recommend them.”

“When building a new house as we did a few years ago can be difficult and concerning when selecting the vendors. The time and interest that Sam and Custom Residential people put into the project made our decision that much easier. More important has been the follow up and reliable service since we completed the house. Sam and his team of people have always give us considerable comfort that they would be available whenever needed including when we were out of town which is often. All Star rating.”
Nick, Lake Forest, IL

“Look no further for a home systems provider! I’ve been a client of Customer Residential Systems for 10 years. As the head of my account, Anthony has never wavered in providing me exceptional service that is always in timely manner while patiently educating me on the fine points of tech systems and keeping me updated on innovations. For every project, Anthony consistently goes above and beyond by exceeding expectations while remaining thoughtful and honest every step of the way. Not only is Anthony extremely proficient in tech systems, but his breadth of knowledge outside of technology is what sets him apart as the unsurpassed multi-subject expert he is. Khanh is another Custom Residential gem who mirrors Anthony’s diligence by always providing superior service in a reliable and considerate manner while completing a job to it’s perfect end and never leaving one wire hanging out.”

Working with Custom Residential Systems was seamless from start to finish. The design team came to my office to lay out the best strategy for quality sound. The install team was efficient and meticulous with speaker placement and clean up. We are very pleased with the uninterrupted music streaming.”

Whenever we have a question or need a house call, they are quick to respond and, when necessary, quick to get onsite with qualified technical support. They know the system well and are therefore efficient in addressing whatever needs we may have.
