Smart Home & AV Installation in Tustin
Historic Old Town homes and brand new Legacy builds, two very different jobs.
Working in Tustin
Tustin covers an unusually wide range in a small area. Old Town has genuine historic housing stock, with homes from the 1880s through the 1920s, with plaster over lath, knob and tube remnants, and no wall cavity worth speaking of. Work here is careful and slow, run along existing chases and baseboards, with visible hardware chosen to sit quietly against period detail rather than fight it.
A couple of miles south, Tustin Legacy is some of the newest construction in central Orange County. Same city, opposite problem: open framing, modern electrical, and a genuine prewire opportunity if we're brought in before drywall goes up.
In between sits a large stock of midcentury tract housing around Peppertree and Laurelwood, where attic access is generally good and retrofit runs cleanly. Which Tustin you live in changes the entire approach, so the walkthrough always comes first.

“I had the pleasure of working with Ashkan on multiple AV installations in the past 10+ years. His team performed a complete update of the media room which includes a multi-screen projection home theater, music server, whole house audio, dedicated 2Ch HiFi system, as well as Crestron automation for AV, lighting & shades. The most recent project is a second HT AV system for the family room/kitchen remodel. It's a complex installation & we're very happy with the job. Ashkan is always professional, responsive & reliable with excellent after sales/installation supports. Highly recommended.”David NgOrange County · Home theater & whole house audioVerified Google review
“I have worked with Ashkan Baghaee for over seven years. He and his team installed and since have maintained the AV, WiFi, and camera systems at our house. They at all times have been effective, professional, and responsive. I have recommended Ashkan to numerous neighbors, friends, and relatives, and those who have worked with him have provided very positive reports. I will continue to recommend Ashkan to anyone in need of his services.”Don DickersonOrange County · AV, Wi-Fi & camerasVerified Google review
“I have worked with Ashkan for 3-4 years. He did a extensive AV job on our Newport Beach home. He did a great job. In addition, as with any extensive AV job/project they'll be a need for follow up. Ashkan has always made himself available and been quick to help with any AV issues. A Pro from start to finish and he will stay with you to make sure your happy. Highly recommend”Mike MNewport Beach · Whole home AVVerified Google review

Common questions from Tustin homeowners
Do you install smart home systems in Tustin?
Yes. Tustin is part of our regular service area and we work there routinely. In Old Town, plaster and lath walls and period trim rule out standard fishing techniques. We route along existing chases and specify hardware that sits quietly against original detail. Call (949) 275-1232 or request a free quote and we'll walk the property with you.
Which neighborhoods in Tustin do you cover?
All of them, including Old Town Tustin, Tustin Legacy, Tustin Ranch, Peppertree, and 2 more. If you're just outside the city limits, ask, because we cover the surrounding communities too.
What does a project in Tustin usually involve?
Tustin covers an unusually wide range in a small area. Old Town has genuine historic housing stock, with homes from the 1880s through the 1920s, with plaster over lath, knob and tube remnants, and no wall cavity worth speaking of. Work here is careful and slow, run along existing chases and baseboards, with visible hardware chosen to sit quietly against period detail rather than fight it. We start with a free on site consultation so the proposal reflects your actual property rather than a generic package.
How quickly can you get out to Tustin?
Usually within a few days for an initial consultation. We're based in Orange County, so we're not driving in from another county. That also means we're around for service after the install, which matters more than most people expect.
