My wife and I contacted Integrated Surroundings to develop and implement a complete home automation, surveillance, network, audio, and video solution for our new home on Pensacola Beach.
We selected Roy and his team because they were very knowledgeable, insightful, and professional from the beginning. They worked with us to develop a great integrated solution from the ground up, teaming with our general contractor from the planning stages to final sign‑off.
Integrated Surroundings delivered on time and on budget while managing to remain flexible as the inevitable changes and issues popped up. The Integrated Surroundings team always looked to offer the most cost-effective options, and really took the time to understand exactly what we wanted.
Our home is “state of the art” and we could not be more pleased with the solution provided by Integrated Surroundings.

After extensively shopping the competition, we were referred to Integrated Surroundings by friends in downtown Pensacola. Our salesman was knowledgeable and his proposal was more than competitive. The installation went smoothly and the service after the sale has been spectacular.
They stand behind their services and equipment well after the sale! The entire staff is great and we are very happy with our purchase.

Just wanted to take this opportunity to extol the virtues of Roy Pederson and the entire Integrated Surroundings crew... I’ve been affiliated with them for almost four years now, through various stages of surround sound/Control4 installations and upgrades... their professionalism, responsiveness and thoroughness through the years has been excellent... I have referred many of my friends to them and I would not hesitate to refer them to you.

I just wanted to take a minute to let you know how pleased I am with you and your Company. I love my 110-inch screen TV and Entertainment system. It was one of the best investments that I have ever made.
But more importantly, I co-own a Canon Dealership, and no one understands service after the sale like me. Your Company has impeccable service in this area. Every time I have needed anything you have been right there for me.
Please feel free in using me for a reference anytime.

I have been very impressed with the knowledge and attention to detail that I get from Integrated Surroundings, and all at a reasonable price. I have experience with other similar outfits in the Pensacola area, and I can say that Integrated Surroundings is head and shoulders above its competition.

My experiences with Integrated Surroundings have been nothing but pleasurable. Roy Pedersen and his staff are the most knowledgeable and professional in the industry. I feel confident when recommending them to my friends and even competitors.
Jim Givan
Homeowner
We were fortunate enough to design and build our home in Gulf Breeze. Of particular importance to me was finding the right integration of music, security, television, and home automation.
The answer to our needs and wishes was Integrated Surroundings. We could not have asked for a more professional and personalized approach to accommodating our budget and creating a design that addressed all of our objectives.
Roy Pedersen and his team personify professionalism and a high level of expertise which translate to a quality and efficiency unmatched in their business. The test of a business relationship is the post-relationship.
I can assure you, Integrated Surroundings is and continues to be a great resource and the perfect partner for us as iterates to home automation and technology.

After meeting with several companies for estimates for our home sound system, we chose Integrated Surroundings. That was the best decision we made through our
building process.
Everyone that worked with us was polite, knowledgeable, and very respectful of our home. They always showed up on time for all scheduled appointments and were very patient with us as we learned about our new system.
I can’t imagine that anyone has ever had anything but a wonderful experience with Integrated Surroundings. I hope you consider them to install your system. You will NOT be disappointed!!

Roy and his team at Integrated Surroundings did a phenomenal job on our home. It was a major renovation of an existing home and Roy told me this was the largest remodel job they had tackled.
We installed the whole house Control 4 system with a drop-down screen/projector theater room. When they were done, the system operated as if it was in the house from day one and we have been very happy with the follow-up attention we received when there was some minor “tweaking” that needed to be done.
Rick Richardson
Homeowner
Integrated Surroundings has done installations for me at my primary home and my vacation home. I was very happy with both.
At my primary home, which was new construction, they installed all of our TVs, Uverse and Mediacom service, internet, WiFi, sound system for inside and outside and set up “Control 4” so we could use all. It is nice to be able to pick up your remote and everything works!
On our vacation home they installed “Control 4” not only for TV and sound systems but added the ability to monitor our A/C thermostats and water heaters over the internet. That has been a great feature.
Just before arriving we remotely turn on the water heaters and adjust thermostats. Even more handy is being able to make sure everything is set correctly for your guests to allow their stay to be comfortable and to revert to house empty settings on their exit.
I heartily recommend Roy and his team at Integrated Surroundings. They know their stuff and are really easy to work with.

I have had great success with the installation. I keep getting great feedback from our congregation on the system. And, I love that matrix. We have used it in different configurations and it performs very well. Thanks again. I will recommend you guys to others.

My wife and I recently finished a unique project in downtown Pensacola to finish a warehouse shell into a residential living space. I contacted several companies for our audio/visual work. I met with the representatives from each company several times.
I selected Integrated Surroundings due to their professional proposal and due diligence on what we wanted and needed for the project. On every aspect of the project from the proposal to the installation they were all very professional and extremely helpful.
Their customer service throughout the project and more importantly after installation has been outstanding!!! I highly recommend using Integrated Surroundings for all your audio/visual needs!!!

Integrated Surroundings’ professionalism, quality of work and overall support have been nothing short of fantastic. We have worked with their team over the past few years on multiple projects and will continue to do so.
We know we can count on them and would not hesitate to recommend or refer them to anyone in need of their services.
Mark Burson

After getting quotes from several A/V companies in the area, Integrated Surroundings quote for our project was the best price by several thousand dollars on an $11,000 project.
Their equipment installed was the same quality equipment as the other companies were offering and has been installed for over a year now and working great. The users of the equipment have given us nothing but good comments.
Integrated Surrounding provided a quick professional install and has been there for us after the sale as well. We are very happy with Integrated Surroundings and are looking to do another project and will use them for that one too.
Laura and Kevin Russell
Builder, Homeowner
My wife and I have been working with Integrated Surroundings for several years now. As a custom home builder, (Russell Home Builders) I have had the pleasure of dealing with them on many homes, including our own.
My clients and I have been very happy with Roy and his team’s prompt and professional service. The products they have installed have performed very well and have enhanced our living experience.
We have also had the opportunity to work with Integrated Surroundings on commercial projects as well. As the owners of Santino’s Pizza we have used them on our new build-outs when opening new stores. They have supplied TVs, Mounts, structured wiring, and camera systems.
All of these systems have worked together to help us monitor what is happening when we are not around and have made our customers eating experience better. I would definitely recommend Integrated Surroundings for any residential or commercial job in which their products and services could be used.
Jim Amberson
Sidelines Sports Bar and Restaurant
In 2008, we decided to upgrade our televisions at the restaurant, and get rid of the tube televisions and the six remotes that controlled all the different brands. We received quotes from many companies for a system that we wanted to control all of our new 42 televisions and 16 satellites, using just one remote.
Right off the bat, we were impressed with Roy and Integrated Surroundings. He seemed to know what he was talking about, and his pricing for the televisions and the system was very competitive. Even though they were a new company, we felt confident they were the right ones for the job.
We were not disappointed. The finished product was above and beyond what we expected. And any small issues that arose after the installation were promptly taken care of by Roy and his staff. To this day, I know if there is an issue, Integrated Surrounding is just one phone call away from helping me.
When it comes time to upgrade our entertainment system again, we will use Integrated Surroundings.

Integrated Surroundings is one of the most professional and customer-focused companies with which I have ever dealt. We talked with at least four other companies before we chose IG and there is no doubt in our minds that we selected the best.
Will Shaw and the rest of the staff educated us on the available technologies, helped us select those that best fit our needs and then performed a quality installation of the equipment. They follow all this up with superb instructions on how to operate the systems.
We highly recommend them for your sound, video and security needs.
