Overview
A smarter home, without the headache

We set up smart lighting, heating, plugs, locks, speakers and voice assistants so they're reliable, easy to use, and controlled from one app or your voice. We help homes and home offices across South West London get the most from their kit.

What we set up
Smart home is a broad term — here's what we most often help with:
- Smart lighting, switches and dimmers
- Smart heating and thermostats (Nest, Hive and similar)
- Smart plugs for lamps, appliances and chargers
- Smart locks and keypad entry
- Motion, door and contact sensors
- Speakers, voice assistants and multi-room audio
- Routines and automations that tie it all together
Start small and grow over time, or do it all at once — your call.
Where to start with home automation
If you're not sure where to begin, a little planning goes a long way:
Pick one win first
Lighting or heating is usually the most satisfying place to begin and shows the value quickly.
Build on solid WiFi
A reliable network is the foundation — get this right and everything else runs smoother.
Keep it simple
A few well-named devices and clear routines beat dozens of gadgets nobody can control.
Think about the household
We set things up so guests, kids and less techy family members can use them too.
We'll suggest a sensible starting point and a path to grow when you're ready.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
I've bought some smart devices already — can you set them up?
Absolutely. We’re happy to set up devices you’ve already bought, link them together, and fill any gaps. We’ll tell you honestly if something won’t play nicely with the rest.
Which voice assistants do you support?
Mainly Amazon Alexa and Google Home, which work with the widest range of devices. We’ll set up names, groups and routines so voice control actually feels natural.
Will all my devices work together?
Most popular brands do, but not everything is compatible. We’ll plan around what you have, recommend devices that work together, and steer you away from dead ends.
Do I need strong WiFi for a smart home?
Yes — smart homes lean heavily on your WiFi. If yours has weak spots, our WiFi setup and home network services make everything more reliable.
Is it complicated to use?
It shouldn’t be. We set things up around simple routines and clear device names, and show the whole household how it works. The goal is fewer taps, not more.
Can you add cameras or a video doorbell too?
Yes — home CCTV and a smart doorbell fit naturally into a smart home, and we can set them up in the same visit.
