TIL that the average house in my area has over 3 miles of low voltage wiring inside the walls
I was reading an old trade magazine at the supply house and saw that stat. It was talking about how much Cat5e, coax, and speaker wire gets pulled during new construction. I guess it makes sense when you add up every room, but that's a lot of cable to fish. How much wire do you guys usually pull for a standard install these days?

Sounds way high to me, maybe they counted every single scrap.

My buddy Mike got a quote for 8 grand to clean out his garage. They said it was 3 tons of junk, but half of it was just empty boxes and old magazines.

Wow, that's insane! My neighbor got quoted five grand for basically the same thing.
