Some of our popular questions for your information.

  • 01
    I’m new to smart home automation - where do I start?
    We’re happy to help you start your smart home journey, and you don’t have to do everything at once! Many clients begin with one element, such as smart lighting, and go from there. Once you see how easy life can become with smart home automation, we can start to add more features.
  • 02
    Can I control everything from a single app?
    Yes, that’s the beauty of smart home automation. Everything can be set up to respond to one interface, either via a smartphone app or user-friendly screen on your wall. It makes managing and monitoring your home easy and accessible.
  • 03
    My previous smart home setup never worked properly—can you fix it?
    Yes! We often carry out system rescues. Many issues arise because systems weren't designed with a strong enough network or used incompatible protocols. We can step in, assess your current wiring and equipment, and provide a solution to make everything work together. We’re often able to solve integration headaches that other companies have walked away from.
  • 04
    How do you make sure my system doesn’t become outdated?
    We focus on future-proofing. This means choosing platforms with a proven track record (like Control4 or KNX) and installing a robust cabling infrastructure that lasts. We can also suggest small hardware tweaks so your smart home stays cutting-edge.
  • 05
    Can you add extra sockets to a room without making a mess?
    In most cases, yes! We have clever ways of inserting cables behind walls or under floorboards to keep disruption to a minimum. If we do need to go into the plaster, we’ll always discuss it with you first and ensure the finish is as tidy as possible.
  • 06
    Can you install outdoor power for my garden or shed?
    Absolutely. Whether you want decorative garden lighting, power for a home office or a secure socket for the lawnmower, we can install weatherproof, armoured cabling that keeps your outdoor space safe and powered up.
  • 07
    What qualifications and training do your electricians have?
    Our electricians are all fully qualified in smart home automation and other electrical work, giving you the highest standards of service every time. We’re dedicated to furthering our skills with training courses and additional qualifications. Each team member's specific certifications are available upon request.
  • 08
    Do you offer emergency support if something critical fails?
    Absolutely. We understand that once your home is automated, things like your security and lighting are essential. We provide priority support for critical failures. Please contact us for more information.
  • 09
    How much say do I have in how the system works?
    As much or as little as you like! Some clients love being involved in every ‘scene’ and button placement. Others prefer to give us a wish list and let us handle the technical details. We’ll provide mock-ups of how your touchscreens will look and show you how each automation will behave, ensuring the final result feels perfectly tailored to your family's lifestyle.
