Sterling / For builders / Low voltage contractor
Low voltage contractor, Monroe GA
Wiring, cameras, locks, and network, carried as a single trade on your project, on your timeline, with the callbacks staying off your punch list.
Low voltage on a custom home usually ends up split across two or three vendors, one for cameras, one for structured wiring, a separate audio-video installer brought in near the end. Each one needs separate scheduling, and if something does not work correctly after closing, figuring out which vendor is responsible becomes your problem. Sterling carries the whole scope as one trade, on the same schedule as your other subcontractors, with one point of contact for the life of the system.
The cost of splitting low voltage across separate vendors rarely shows up as a line item, it shows up as coordination time nobody billed for. A camera installer who needs the network in before they can test their equipment, a structured wiring crew whose schedule does not line up with electrical rough-in, an audio-video company that only shows up after trim and finds conduit was never run for the speakers. Sterling being one trade instead of three removes that coordination problem from your plate entirely, not just the individual scopes.
One point of contact also means one place accountability actually lives. When wiring, cameras, and network all trace back to the same crew, there is no gray area about who to call if something needs attention, before the walk-through or years after it.
What’s in scope
Most projects use some combination of these, scoped to what the homeowner and the house actually call for.
Cat6A and fiber, home run to a labeled panel, planned against the plan set before framing starts.
Keypad and circuit layout coordinated with the electrician, not run as a separate, conflicting scope.
Conduit and power to gate, entry, and perimeter points, positioned against the actual site plan.
Rack location, cable runs, and access point wiring, sized to the home before it is framed.
Speaker and display locations wired at rough-in, finished at trim once the space is ready.
How we fit into your build
The three things that matter most to a builder bringing on a new trade.
We attend blueprint review with electrical, plumbing, and HVAC, and hold our rough-in slot in your sequence rather than asking you to work around us.
Wiring, cameras, locks, and network handled as a single trade, not split across separate vendors you have to coordinate yourself.
If a homeowner has a question about something we installed after closing, that call comes to Sterling, not back to you.
What you actually get
Every run gets labeled and photographed before drywall closes over it, archived against the home’s address. This is not paperwork for its own sake, it is what makes an inspection go smoothly, and what makes a service call five years from now fast instead of a demolition project.
Where we work
Monroe is home base, with active projects running across the surrounding markets on the same crew and the same schedule. If your project falls outside this list but timing allows us into blueprint review, it is worth a call.
Distance from Monroe is rarely the deciding factor. Timing is. A project we can get in front of at blueprint review is a project we can usually take on, regardless of which county it falls in. One already past framing with low voltage never planned for it is a harder conversation, and worth having early rather than after the fact.
Common questions
Yes. Most of our current volume comes through Nehemiah Construction, but we take on other builders’ projects directly, provided the timeline allows us to be part of blueprint review rather than brought in after framing has already started.
We are set up for the $1M and up custom home range, where the scope typically includes structured wiring, lighting control, and at least one of cameras, access control, or audio and video. A single-service request on a smaller project is worth a conversation, but our schedule prioritizes full-scope work in that range.
Yes. We carry the licensing and insurance expected of any trade on a custom home jobsite, and can provide documentation as part of your standard subcontractor onboarding.
Changes get routed through the same process as any other trade’s change order, priced and confirmed before the work happens, so there is no ambiguity about scope or cost by the time we are back on site.
That depends on how the project is structured. Some builders prefer to carry our scope in their own contract with the homeowner, others prefer Sterling to invoice the homeowner directly for the low-voltage scope. We will work with whichever structure your business already runs on.
Yes, that is the normal way our schedule runs. Multiple projects move through blueprint review, rough-in, and trim at different points simultaneously, which is why holding a confirmed slot in your sequence matters more than a rough estimate of when we might show up.
The plan set and a seat at blueprint review, as early as you can get us there. Wire paths, keypad locations, camera placement, and network rack position all get decided against the actual drawing, and the earlier we are in the room, the fewer conflicts come up later with electrical or framing.
