What you get

Vetted pros, real quotes, zero obligation

One free request connects you with licensed, insured local installers who specialize in exactly this kind of job. You compare free quotes and choose — or walk away.

Wire while walls are open

Pre-wiring during framing is dramatically cheaper and cleaner than fishing cables through finished walls. Lock in your camera locations before drywall goes up.

Future-proof cabling

Pros run the right cable — Cat6 for IP cameras, Siamese for analog — plus junction boxes and network drops so adding cameras later is plug-and-play.

Coordinates with your builder

Matched installers routinely work alongside builders, electricians, and low-voltage contractors, so your camera wiring fits the build schedule.

Plan placements up front

Get a proper camera placement plan tuned to your floor plan — coverage zones, sightlines, and NVR/network location decided before the walls close.

Booked around your timeline

Share your build stage and we'll match you with pros available when you need them, so pre-wiring lands at the right moment in construction.

FAQ

Questions, answered

When should I pre-wire my new construction for security cameras?

The best time is while the walls are open — after framing but before drywall goes up. Pre-wiring then is far cheaper and cleaner than fishing cables through finished walls later. Tell us your build stage and we'll match you with pros who coordinate with builders and electricians.

How much does pre-wiring security cameras in new construction cost?

Pre-wiring is usually charged per camera drop or per cable run, and it's significantly less expensive than retrofitting a finished home. Final cost depends on the number of camera locations, cable type (Cat6 for IP vs Siamese for analog), and NVR/network drop placement. Get free quotes from local pros to see your exact price.

Do I have to choose the cameras now, or just run the cables?

You don't need to buy cameras yet. Pre-wiring means running the right cabling and junction boxes to each planned camera location so installation later is plug-and-play. Your matched pro can plan drops that work with most major IP and analog systems.

Can the installer coordinate with my builder or electrician?

Yes. Many pros in our network routinely work alongside builders, electricians, and low-voltage contractors on new builds. Share your project timeline in the request and we'll match you with installers experienced in new-construction coordination.
