Working in Van Nuys
Van Nuys is one of the largest and most varied districts in the Valley, and it's as much a commercial service area for me as a residential one. The industrial and commercial corridors along Sherman Way, Van Nuys Boulevard, Saticoy and Roscoe are full of small businesses — auto shops, warehouses, light manufacturing, retail and offices — that need camera systems, networks, POS support and general maintenance without a corporate service contract.
Residentially, Van Nuys is dominated by post-war single-family tracts and a substantial apartment stock. The single-family homes from the late 1940s through the 1960s produce a consistent list: original or first-replacement appliances, aging plumbing shutoffs, ungrounded two-prong outlets, wall furnaces, sticking doors and windows, and Wi-Fi struggling through stucco with wire lath.
Van Nuys also has one of the highest concentrations of ADUs and converted garages in the Valley, which brings the usual back-unit questions: getting network coverage out there, servicing the appliances someone installed without much planning, and adding cameras to cover a shared driveway.

Local notes
Commercial camera work. Yards, loading areas and alleys need different thinking than houses — license-plate-capable angles where geometry allows, proper low-light performance, and 30–90 day retention sized honestly. I'll also put cameras on their own network segment away from your POS, which is a security baseline that a surprising number of installed systems skip.

You get a range before I drive out, not after. If it's a job that needs a licensed contractor, I'll tell you that on the phone instead of wasting your time.
- 3
I show up in the window
You get a text when I'm on the way. Shoe covers, drop cloths, and the work area left cleaner than I found it.

Pay when it works
Flat price agreed up front. Card, Zelle, cash or check. Parts I install carry the manufacturer warranty and my labor is guaranteed for 90 days.
Van Nuys questions
Do you do commercial work in Van Nuys?
Yes — camera systems, networks, POS and receipt printer support, workstation setup, and general repairs for shops, offices, warehouses and restaurants. On-site, no monthly contract required.
Can you get Wi-Fi out to my back house?
Yes. Depending on the run, that's either a buried or exterior-routed Ethernet drop with its own access point, or a point-to-point wireless bridge where cable isn't practical. Both are far more reliable than an extender fighting through two stucco walls.
My house has two-prong outlets. Is that a problem?
It's very common in Van Nuys post-war homes and it's addressable without rewiring the house. The code-compliant approach uses GFCI protection with proper labeling. What you should avoid is anyone simply swapping in three-prong outlets on an ungrounded circuit — that creates a false sense of safety.

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.”
