A customer in Denver asked me to hide all the sensors because they 'ruined the vibe'.
They wanted a full system but didn't want to see a single piece of it, which meant fishing wires through finished walls for every contact. It took three times as long as a normal install. How do you guys handle jobs where the look is more important than the function?

Honestly, that Denver vibe sounds expensive. Charging triple is the only way to make those jobs worth it. You end up building a whole invisible house inside their visible house. Next they'll want the keypad hidden in a fake rock.

My buddy in Austin charges double for what he calls "invisible installs." He says the client's vibe budget has to match their vibe check.

Feel for your buddy, man. Those vibe check clients always want way more than they pay for. Sounds like he's got the right idea charging what the work is actually worth.
