Homeowners across Mississippi are trading dated doorbells for full-featured intercom systems. When paired with smart locks, cameras, and integrated audio, a well-planned MS intercom becomes the communication hub of the residence. CountBricks leads this evolution by combining decades of residential construction experience with real-time AI estimating and blueprint takeoff technology. The result: clear pricing, faster builds, and flawless integration with the rest of the home.
Online searches for “ms intercom” reveal three core intentions:
• Homeowners exploring costs before calling a contractor
• Builders looking for installation best practices
• Property managers comparing wired vs. wireless systems
CountBricks addresses each group. Our AI platform converts a live voice conversation into a line-item estimate in seconds, then syncs the numbers directly to a professional quote document. Because pricing pulls from local Mississippi labor and material databases, your budget mirrors marketplace reality—no surprises down the road.
1. Rapid AI Estimates: Speak with a CountBricks project specialist, and the software transcribes, categorizes, and prices every scope item in real time.
2. Integrated Takeoffs: Upload a floor plan to CountBricks.com/blueprint, outline the rooms that need devices, and receive instant conduit runs, device counts, and wall-mount heights.
3. Field-Ready Task Lists: Our platform outputs sequenced tasks—rough-in, trim-out, programming—so every trade knows when to arrive.
4. Local MS Expertise: Licensed technicians understand Mississippi electrical codes, humidity considerations, and brick veneer challenges unique to the region.
• Hard-wired room-to-room: Best for new builds with open wall cavities
• Wireless IP network: Ideal for retrofits where fishing cable is costly
• Door station plus mobile app: Popular for short-term rentals or guest houses
CountBricks walks homeowners through each option during the initial consultation, then models cost differentials inside the same estimate so decisions stay data-driven.
1. Design & Layout: Using your digital blueprint, CountBricks pinpoints device locations to maximize voice clarity and camera coverage.
2. Rough-In: Our electricians route 18/2 or Cat6, drill low-voltage boxes, and label each run for future service.
3. Device Mounting: After drywall and paint, we mount intercom stations with precision templates to avoid wall damage.
4. Programming & Testing: Technicians configure call groups, adjust mic sensitivity, and connect smart locks for one-touch entry.
5. Client Walkthrough: We train homeowners on mobile controls, privacy settings, and routine maintenance.
• Length of cable runs in two-story homes
• Brick veneer penetrations requiring specialized sleeves
• Attic humidity necessitating rated junction boxes
• Retrofit drywall repairs
Because CountBricks quantifies each factor during takeoff, clients see transparent line items—no blanket “miscellaneous” fees.

How long does an average install take?
Most three-station wireless systems finish in one day. Twelve-station wired projects average three workdays, depending on drywall access.
Can I add stations later?
Yes. CountBricks labels every cable run and programs expansion slots into your hub, simplifying future additions.
What warranties are included?
All hardware carries a manufacturer’s three-year warranty, and CountBricks adds a one-year workmanship guarantee on top.
Building in Mississippi demands respect for local climate, code, and culture. Whether you’re renovating a Belhaven bungalow or designing a Gulfport smart home, CountBricks delivers intercom solutions that speak the language of Southern living—crystal clear, always connected, and built to last.
Many clients assume an intercom is a stand-alone feature. CountBricks takes a holistic view, designing the MS intercom as one node in a wider automation ecosystem. When the door station calls your phone, it can also trigger pathway lights, pause whole-house audio, and timestamp a security log—if the wiring and programming are planned up front.
1. Discovery Call: We map client priorities—security, convenience, accessibility.
2. Unified Blueprint Takeoff: Our AI tool cross-references intercom device locations with lighting circuits, HVAC zones, and data panels.
3. Single-App Control: By leveraging open protocol hardware, CountBricks technicians tie intercom functions into the same app that manages thermostats and locks.
4. Stress Testing: Before handoff, we stage simulated events—power outages, network drops—to verify that voice communication and door release stay functional.
A 1920s cottage underwent a down-to-stud renovation. The owners wanted modern convenience without compromising period charm. CountBricks routed new Cat6 through existing plaster chases, installed bronze-finish intercom stations to match antique hardware, and linked the system to hidden speakers in the original crown molding. Voice control now greets guests while preserving every inch of historic character.
• Fewer Apps: One dashboard controls calls, lights, and locks
• Energy Savings: Occupancy data from intercom stations adjusts HVAC setpoints
• Enhanced Safety: Automatic lighting when a call is answered deters intruders
Home automation is only as strong as its weakest link. By choosing CountBricks, you secure not just an intercom, but a resilient, future-proof infrastructure ready for tomorrow’s tech.
