Before the Walls Are Sealed & Finished, Plan for Home Automation

If you’re building a new home or undergoing a renovation, and you’d like to include a smart home system, don’t wait until construction is complete. Many homeowners assume smart technology is an add-on they can do later, like choosing paint colors or furniture.

But ideally, you should be planning to incorporate a smart system from the very beginning of your project.

Our home automation company works alongside architects and home builders to appropriately plan where wiring and technology systems should go. We help create stunning smart houses in Naples, FL and cities around the world.

Below, we’ll share why early smart home design is essential and how working with a professional can make all the difference.  

How We Install Smart Home Systems in Existing Properties  

As the smart home industry continues to boom, homebuyers expect new houses and luxury apartments to include automated technology. In fact, 81% of buyers now indicate they’d be more likely to purchase homes with home control systems. Almost half (47%) of millennials already own smart home products, including automated lights, thermostats, and security devices.

But what if you already live in a home that isn’t equipped with a home automation system? There are several ways to install an intelligent home system (like Control4, Crestron, or Savant) without tampering with your house’s charm.

Whether you live in a historic 1920s bungalow or a stunning modern villa, we install both wired and wireless home systems in Naples, FL, and cities worldwide. Here’s how it works.

If It Uses Electricity, You Can Likely Automate It.

In the age of voice assistants and video doorbells, it seems there’s a smart device for almost anything. But with a fully integrated smart system, like one by Control4, Savant, and Crestron, you’ll sync all your Miami, FL home’s devices into one platform, one App, one interface. You can even automate appliances and devices that you may not think of as ‘smart,’ like ceiling fans.

And what does home automation mean? Through home automation services, you can create custom scenes in each space to utilize over and over. With one press of a button, ‘Dinner Time’ can adjust the lights, turn on soft music, and lower motorized shades in the dining room. Or set automated schedules so that your landscape lighting turns on and off at the appropriate time every night.

For an idea of all, you can add to your smart system, we’ll share a snippet of what you can automate below.
