Working in Los Feliz
Los Feliz is one of the most architecturally significant neighborhoods in Los Angeles, and it's also one of the more demanding places to do technical work. The flats below Los Feliz Boulevard hold beautiful 1920s Spanish, Tudor and Mediterranean homes. Above the boulevard, the streets climb steeply into the hills toward Griffith Park with properties built into slopes, reached by long stairs and narrow roads.
The 1920s construction here is exactly the kind that defeats wireless networking: thick plaster over metal lath, masonry sections, and multiple floors. A single router in a Los Feliz Spanish home routinely fails to reach the far side of the house. The right answer involves cable, an attic, and some patience — but done once, it's done.
These houses also reward care in everything else. Original tile, plaster detail, hardwood, arched openings and period hardware are all easy to damage and expensive to restore. A patch that doesn't match, a fixture mounted through a plaster arch, or a camera cable stapled across a stucco face are all avoidable mistakes.

Local notes
Access. A lot of Los Feliz hillside homes are reached by a long flight of stairs from street parking. That's normal and it doesn't change the price — but mention it when you book so I bring the right amount of gear up in one trip rather than three.

Los Feliz questions
Why is Wi-Fi so bad in my 1920s Los Feliz house?
Almost certainly the walls. Plaster over metal lath acts as a shield against 5 GHz signal — the same construction that makes the house solid makes it hostile to wireless. No router fixes this. Multiple access points connected by Ethernet do, permanently.
Will you damage my original plaster?
Not if it can be avoided, and the approach is chosen to minimize it. Mounting into plaster uses the right anchors and pilot technique; cable is routed through attics and closets rather than through decorative surfaces; and patches are texture-matched rather than skimmed flat and hoped for.
Do you serve Los Feliz and Franklin Hills?
Yes, both, plus the Griffith Park edge. It's about twelve minutes from Burbank.

Sample content. These reviews are placeholders written to show the layout. Replace them with real customer reviews in src/config.py, then set PLACEHOLDER_REVIEWS = False to enable review structured data.
“Our Samsung fridge stopped cooling on a Friday. Armen came out the same afternoon, found a failed evaporator fan, and had it running before dinner. He showed me the old part and explained exactly what happened. No upsell, no drama.”
“Three-story townhouse with Wi-Fi that died on the top floor. He ran a hardwired access point instead of selling me another extender, and now I get full speed in every room. He labeled every cable in the closet too.”
“Four cameras around the house plus a doorbell, all on my phone. He walked the property with me first and moved two camera positions based on where our packages actually get dropped. Clean cable runs, nothing hanging.”
