Worked with Daniel Erce a few years ago when my wife and I bought our home. He helped me get set up with a great system. His knowledge and expertise is unmatched compared to other people/companies I have used for home security in the past. Highly recommend Guardian and Dan!

Response from the owner:We're thrilled to hear that Daniel's expertise and guidance stood out compared to your past experiences! Thank you for trusting Guardian with your home security, Mike!

I signed up with Frase And then Guardian bought them. When I finally reached out To them to fix some issues, they have been completely responsive and John their technician has been amazing! He stayed from 8 AM until past 6 pm putting up my cameras and fixing my alarm system And was genuinely helpful, kind, and patient the entire time! In the same age where Customer Service tends to be so poor he was Absolutely phenomenal!!

Response from the owner:Thank you for sharing your experience, Suparana. We're happy to hear that you felt supported during the transition with Guardian and that John provided such patient, knowledgeable and dedicated service while getting your cameras and alarm system fully taken care of. We appreciate your continued trust and kind words!
