We offer a range of smart home installation packages to meet every need and budget. Begin with a simple setup and upgrade later, or choose a more advanced package right away.

All our packages are modular, so you can customise your setup by adding new features now or in the future.

We use encryption, access control, and data protection to ensure your safety and privacy.

An Intuitive & Easy-to-use Mobile App

The mobile app puts your entire smart home at your fingertips. See the status of all your smart devices (lights, heating, doors, windows, blinds, motion, etc.) in a single glance on a user-friendly floor plan.

Accessible from anywhere, the app lets you control your home automation remotely, whether you’re at home or on the go.

The app works on both iOS and Android devices, and it can also be accessed via the web. It’s simple enough that everyone in your family will love using it.

Integrate Your Current Devices

With over 2,500 integrations, our smart home platform connects all your devices.

We can add your existing lighting, heating, entertainment, and security systems without needing replacements! By integrating new technology with the devices in your home, we create a seamless automated home experience.

Control everything from a centralised, user-friendly system: music, washing machines, motorised blinds, electric car chargers, and more.

Custom Automations

Set up custom automations for your smart home system: Arm your alarm with one tap or automatically when the house is empty. Lock doors, turn off lights, TVs, and other appliances left on, or even adjust the heating to save energy while you’re away.

Automate your home with customisations like:

  • Automatically turn lights and appliances on and off based on occupancy and motion sensors.
  • Control bathroom ventilation based on humidity levels.
  • Schedule robot vacuum cleaning for specific rooms.
  • Get notifications on your phone, TV, or Smart Speaker when:
    • The alarm is armed, disarmed, or triggered.
    • Doors are locked or unlocked.
    • Appliances like the washer, dryer, or oven finish their cycles.
    • It’s time to wake up and get your weather forecast.
    • You should leave earlier to avoid traffic.
    • A person is detected in the garden while you’re out.
    • A water leak or smoke is detected.

A Floor Plan to Manage Your Home

Control your home and all your devices from anywhere using a simple and intuitive 3D floor plan. Access it securely from your mobile, tablet, computer, or even your smart TV.

The floor plan shows real-time updates for lights, heating, door/window sensors, motion detectors, and any other connected devices. With just a quick glance, you’ll be aware of your entire home’s status, improving security and potentially saving energy.

Smart CCTV with AI for Object Detection

With the use of local AI (Artificial Intelligence), your CCTV system becomes smarter than ever. Rather than receiving notifications for every motion detected, you’ll only be notified when specific conditions are met: such as when someone enters the back garden with the alarm on or when a vehicle enters a designated zone while you’re away.

We can add local AI to your smart home system, which runs on your smart hub for faster and more reliable object detection.

Media Server

We can set up a media server so you can store all your favourite content and access it from any device, whether at home or away.

With the option to create multiple user profiles, everyone will have their favourite movies, series, and music readily available, and they will be able to continue watching exactly where they left off.

Your Smart Home Questions, Answered

It’s all about reliability and integration. DIY bulbs rely on your home’s Wi-Fi, while a professional system is a rock-solid, dedicated network for your lights that integrates seamlessly with your blinds, security, and audio. You can learn more at our DYI vs Professional Installation blog or at our Smart Lighting page.

We completely agree. We specialise in installing ‘invisible’ in-ceiling and in-wall speakers that deliver incredible sound quality without the clutter. Discover more on our Smart Audio page.

Definitely not. Our systems use AI object recognition to tell the difference between people, cars, and animals, so you only get alerts that matter. You can explore our solutions on the CCTV & Security page and Our Smart Security Familiy Guide.

Not at all. While our system is brilliant at maximising solar power, our most dramatic case study—a 68% cost reduction—was from a home with no solar panels at all. For more in-depth details, you can check our How Much Does Smart Home Installation Cost in the UK Guide, or just take a look at our Energy Savings page.

It’s all about being intuitive. Instead of scrolling through long, confusing menus, you just see your house and tap on what you want to control. Explore the platform in more detail on our Our Platform page. We also discussed more in-depth about the best smart home platform in the Control4 vs Crestron vs SH Pro blog.

The biggest difference is intelligence. A basic thermostat follows a simple timer, while a true smart heating system uses sensors and learns your routines to ensure perfect comfort and maximum efficiency. Check out our Smart Heating page for more details.

In many cases, yes! For curtains, we can often install a motorised track, and for some blinds, a motor can be added. See all the options on our Smart Blinds page.

99% of the time, the issue isn’t the device—it’s the free router from your internet provider. A professional network provides the stable foundation your devices need to work flawlessly. You can check our WiFi & Networking page for additional info.
