Signs it's time

Sound familiar?

Most of the upgrades we do start with one of these.

Keypads that don't respond

Buttons dead, lights stuck on or scenes that stopped working years ago.

No one has the files

The original installer is gone and nobody has the programming to change anything.

An app that's been retired

The control app no longer updates or won't install on a new phone.

Too many apps

One for the lights, one for the alarm, one for the cameras, and a drawer of remotes.

Old alarm and intercom

A panel nobody knows the code for, and an intercom that only rings inside the house.

Wi-Fi that drops out

Dead spots that take streaming, cameras and smart devices down with them.

Two ways to upgrade

Wired or wireless. We'll tell you which.

The right answer depends on what's already in your walls and how much you want to open up.

Wired upgrade

Built to last decades

Best when you're renovating, the walls are already open, or there's existing control cabling we can reuse.

  • Reuse existing C-Bus or Dynalite cabling where it's sound
  • Replace failed keypads, dimmers and power supplies
  • Recover or rebuild the programming and hand you the files
  • Add Savant on top for one app, one remote and touch panels
  • Hardwired cameras, alarm, intercom and network

Wireless upgrade

Smart without the mess

Best for homes you're living in, apartments, heritage interiors and finished walls you don't want chased.

  • Fibaro wireless dimmers and switches behind your existing switch plates
  • Ajax wireless alarm, sensors and detectors
  • CoolAutomation to bring existing air conditioning into one app
  • Savant control over a properly designed Ubiquiti network
  • Little to no patching and painting

Many homes end up with a mix: wired where the walls are open, wireless everywhere else, all running in the same Savant app.

Keep what works

We don't rip out good gear.

Plenty of older systems are sound underneath. A failed power supply or a lost project file can make a perfectly good C-Bus or Dynalite network look dead. We test before we quote, keep what works, and only replace what needs replacing.

“Excellent, prompt, reliable. Serviced a C-Bus electrical system that two other technicians from two other companies couldn't fix.”

David O'Keefe · BSES client

“We had issues with our C-Bus home automation system. Thankfully Chris and his team diagnosed the issue and also advised on a future upgrade.”
