About Us
Built by homelabbers, for homelabbers
Why We Started Puget Homelabs
We've been where you are. Spending weekends running cables through attics, crimping our own RJ45 connectors, and watching YouTube tutorials on proper cable management. We've made every mistake in the book so you don't have to.
Puget Homelabs was born from a simple frustration: traditional low voltage contractors don't understand what homelabbers actually need. They'll run CAT5e when you want CAT6A. They'll daisy-chain your drops instead of running homeruns. They don't care about your patch panel layout or labeling scheme.
We're different because we are you. We run homelabs ourselves. We understand why you need 10Gbps to your office, why you want a dedicated VLAN for IoT devices, and why proper cable management isn't optional.
Our Approach
Every project starts with understanding your goals. Are you building a Proxmox cluster with Ceph storage? Running Plex and the *arr stack? Self-hosting Nextcloud, Home Assistant, and a dozen Docker containers? Your infrastructure needs depend on your use case, and we design accordingly.
We use LIDAR scanning and BIM CAD modeling because precision matters. When you're pulling CAT6A through a finished home, you need to know exactly where the obstacles are before you start cutting holes. Our approach minimizes disruption while maximizing results.
And when we're done, you get complete documentation. Not just a receipt, but detailed drawings of every cable run, test results for every termination, and a 3D model of your entire installation. Because someday you'll want to add another drop, and you shouldn't have to guess where the cables are.
Service Area
We serve the greater Seattle metropolitan area, including Bellevue, Kirkland, Redmond, Tacoma, and surrounding communities. Whether you're in a downtown condo or a house in the suburbs, we can help you build the network infrastructure you need.
What We Believe
The principles that guide every installation
Do It Right
No shortcuts, no compromises. Every termination is tested, every cable is properly supported, and every label is legible. We build infrastructure that will outlast your current hardware.
Document Everything
Your future self will thank you. We provide comprehensive documentation including CAD drawings, test results, and photo documentation so you always know what's in your walls.
Future-Proof
Technology moves fast. We install CAT6A and fiber not because you need 10Gbps today, but because you might need it tomorrow. Your infrastructure should be ahead of your hardware.
