Honest take: where to save, where not to
Real talk on this: most Port Carling luxury waterfront installs we have done in the past 12 months looked nothing like the spec sheet. The Wi-Fi was weaker than expected, the existing wiring was older than we thought, and the homeowner wanted three extra things we had not quoted. That is why we always do a free 30-minute site visit before quoting — it protects both sides.
