I have a 3 bedroom home which I want to run ethernet and coax
througout. The only problem is that there is no attic/crawl space and
it's on a slab. The home has tile throughout (new - put in by previous
owner) so I prefer not to take it up.

I would like to run one of those all-in-one cables (2 each of coax,
fiber and cat5) however, I have no idea on how to do this. My initial
plan was to drill holes in the wall and somehow drill through each beam
but that would require holes in the wall ever 18 inches =). Another
possibility is to somehow get the wires to the ceiling and hope I can
(from inside the house) get the wires to the garage where the wire box
will be.

Is anyone experienced in an install like this and have some
suggestions? Would a good electrician be able to handle this with ease?
I wouldn't mind paying some $$$ if they could do it without running the
wires outside or whatnot.

Any tips/pointers would be greatly appreciated.
