Frequently Asked Questions

What areas do you serve?

FM Tech is based in Virginia Beach and serves residential and commercial clients throughout Hampton Roads, including Chesapeake, Norfolk, Suffolk, Portsmouth, Hampton, Newport News, Williamsburg, Isle of Wight County, and Franklin.

Do you work with both homes and businesses?

Yes. We design and install technology systems for residential homes as well as commercial spaces such as offices, churches, childcare centers, and multi-site properties.

What types of systems do you install?

Our services include audio-video systems, home and business automation, security systems, access control, low-voltage lighting, structured wiring, LED video walls, and specialized environments like RTCCs.

Are your systems custom or pre-packaged?

Every system is custom-designed based on the space, usage, and goals of the project. We don’t use one-size-fits-all solutions.

Do you provide support after installation?

Yes. We offer post-installation support and ongoing service options to ensure systems continue to perform as expected.

Do you install smart home devices?

Yes, we install a variety of smart home devices including thermostats, security systems, and lighting solutions that can be controlled via smartphone apps or voice commands.

Do you offer financing options?

Yes. FM Tech offers financing options to help make technology upgrades more accessible for qualified residential clients. Financing availability and terms vary, and our team is happy to review options during your consultation.

Do you install home theater systems in Virginia Beach, even in older beachside homes?

Absolutely. We’ve installed surround sound and projector systems in older homes along Shore Drive and the Oceanfront, where we often deal with tight crawlspaces and older electrical. We know how to work around these quirks without disrupting your charm or structure.

Can you wire low-voltage systems in new builds in Chesapeake near Great Bridge?

Yes, we regularly work with builders and GC teams in areas like Great Bridge and Hickory. Chesapeake’s newer developments often come pre-framed for low-voltage conduits, which lets us run Cat6 drops and camera cabling more efficiently.

Do I need a permit for outdoor security cameras in Norfolk’s historic districts?

If you're in a designated historic area like Ghent or Freemason, Norfolk requires approval from the Architectural Review Board for visible changes. We’ve guided several homeowners through that process and know how to mount cameras discreetly to preserve aesthetics.

How close are you to the Greenbrier area in Chesapeake?

We're just 15 minutes from Greenbrier—our shop is off Ward Ave in Virginia Beach. We service that area regularly, especially for retail businesses wanting AV upgrades or alarm systems.

Can your systems handle the power surges we get in Portsmouth during storms?

Yes. We always recommend surge protection and UPS backups, especially in older neighborhoods like Churchland where the grid can flicker. It’s essential for protecting your AV rack and network gear.

What’s the typical install time for a smart lighting system in a Suffolk ranch home?

For most single-story Suffolk ranches, we can complete a full smart lighting and shade system in 1–2 days. These homes tend to have accessible attics, which makes retrofit wiring easier and faster.

Do you offer commercial access control for offices near Town Center in Virginia Beach?

Absolutely—we’ve outfitted multiple office suites around Town Center with badge readers, keypad entry, and networked lock systems. We’re familiar with local fire marshal inspections and building security policies.

Is your team licensed for structured cabling in Newport News commercial properties?

Yes, FM Tech is fully licensed and insured for commercial low-voltage work across Newport News. We’ve wired for multiple defense contractors near Oyster Point, so we understand both compliance and high-security requirements.

How do you deal with humidity when installing home theater gear in Williamsburg homes?

We often recommend humidity-resistant enclosures and equipment with sealed drivers, especially for crawlspace AV or garages. Williamsburg's muggy summers can wreak havoc on unprotected gear.

Are smart blinds a good idea in Hampton homes with large bay windows?

Definitely—especially for homes near Mercury Blvd or Buckroe Beach, where sun exposure heats rooms quickly. We install motorized shades from Clara and Lutron that can be set to auto-close at peak sunlight, keeping things cool and energy efficient.
