What is New Construction Prewire
New Construction Prewire is selecting which technologies to take advantage of in your new home and installing the wiring and devices before it is built. When you take advantage of the fact that there aren’t any walls up yet, your costs to run wiring decrease remarkably. It does take some foresight and experience when determining which wires to install.
Why Have Your Home Pre-wired?
- Savings – The cost to run the proper wiring throughout your home goes up drastically after the walls are finished or if another technology like wireless is utilized.
- Resale – Wiring for the future adds value when you decide to sell your home.
- Cost Appropriation – You will know how much to budget for the final installation of the system you desire.
- Exceptional Technology – Some systems can be added later but tend to be technologies that aren’t the preferable choice for quality.
