Smart home setup

A smart home that actually works.

Home Assistant is powerful, but getting it right takes real setup: the right hub, a reliable device network and a dashboard that shows what matters. We set it up properly, and can build on it further if you want something more.

Home Assistant whole-house energy dashboard, showing live grid demand, solar statistics and a 24-hour power history — A live Home Assistant setup we run and maintain. Real data, not a demo. Click any image to see it larger.

Per-device power monitoring on smart plugs for a bedroom TV, a downstairs TV and a living room lamp — Per-device monitoring, so you know what is actually costing you money.

Solar PV power history graph with minimum, mean and maximum generation statistics — Solar generation tracked over time, not just a headline number.

Three water leak detectors, positioned behind a dryer, under a sink and under a bath, all reporting dry — Leak detectors behind the dryer, under the sink and under the bath.

A list of configured Home Assistant automations, including lighting schedules and an appliance failure alert — Automations doing real jobs, like an alert if the freezer gets switched off.

Room by room temperature and humidity sensors across a house — Room by room temperature and humidity, wherever you want visibility.

Detailed power history graph for a single smart plug over 24 hours — Full history for every device, so you see patterns, not just a snapshot.

One hub for energy, water, solar and your device network, built on Home Assistant.

What we can help with

Home Assistant setup

Installation and configuration, with a dashboard and automations built around how you actually use your home, not the defaults.

MQTT and Zigbee networks

A reliable messaging backbone and device network, so sensors and switches respond quickly and stay connected.

Energy and solar monitoring

Solar generation, battery and household energy use brought into Home Assistant, so you can see where your power actually goes.

What to consider

What do you actually want visibility over: energy, leaks, presence, security?
Which devices and protocols do you already have, and which are worth adding?
Do you want a polished dashboard, or eventually a bespoke app for your household?

Useful questions

Do I need to buy new hardware?

Not necessarily. We start with what you already have and recommend additions only where they genuinely improve reliability or coverage.

What can automations actually do?

Practical things: an alert if a fridge or freezer loses power, lights that follow sunrise and sunset, a notification the moment a leak sensor gets wet. We build automations around real situations, not novelty.

Can this connect to a bespoke app later?

Yes. Home Assistant exposes a clean API, so if you want a bespoke app or a client-facing dashboard, our full-stack and mobile teams can build on top of it.
