For your home
A house that finally does
what you ask it to.
Cinema sound that does the film justice. Music where you want it and quiet where you do not. Lights that already know it is evening. Wi-Fi that reaches the loft, the garden and the shed.
Sound and picture
The cinema room, and everything short of one.
Not everybody wants tiered seating and a projector. Most people want the film to sound right in the room they already have, and the telly to stop being a wrestling match with four remotes.
Proper cinema sound
Dolby Atmos done correctly, with speakers positioned for your room rather than dropped wherever the joists happened to fall. Calibrated once we have finished, so it sounds right from the sofa.
Speakers you cannot see
In-ceiling and in-wall speakers that sit flush and paint in to match. Plaster-in options that vanish completely. Big sound and not one black box on show.
One button, or none
Press "film" and the lights dim, the blinds come down and the right input appears. Or just ask out loud. No hunting for the remote that runs the soundbar.
Every room, its own volume
Kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, garden. Each playing its own thing if you want, or all of it together when people are over.
It survives the family
Set up so a teenager, a guest and a grandparent can all work it without ringing you. That is the real test.
Room by room
Music that follows you around.
Where it goes, how loud, and what happens at half past six on a school morning.
Kitchen
The room that gets used most. Ceiling speakers that stay out of the way and survive the steam.
Living room
Shared with the television, so the same speakers do both jobs properly instead of neither well.
Bedrooms
Quiet, separate control, and nothing that wakes the rest of the house at six in the morning.
Bathroom
Moisture rated and neatly fitted, on the same system as everywhere else.
Garden and terrace
Weatherproof speakers that disappear into the planting rather than shouting at the neighbours.
Home office
Music when you want it, and a call that does not echo when you do not.
Wi-Fi and networks
The end of the blackspot on the landing.
Most home Wi-Fi problems are not solved by another plug-in extender. They are solved by putting the right access points in the right places, wired back properly.
Reaches where you actually are
We survey the house, including the thick walls and the bit over the garage everyone has given up on, then design coverage around it. Loft, garden office and shed included.
Family, guests and work apart
Your work laptop kept away from the smart plugs, and a visitor who never needs your main password. Plus mobile backup so a call does not die when the line drops.
Lighting
The biggest change you can make to how a house feels.
And the one most often left to whoever happened to wire the sockets.
Scenes, not switches
Morning, cooking, dinner, film, bedtime. One press sets the whole room instead of you working along a bank of five switches guessing which is which.
Warm, dimmable, efficient
LED that dims properly and warms as it dims, the way a real bulb does. Lower bills without the flat cold light people associate with early LED.
Blinds and curtains too
Motorised where it makes sense, tied into the same scenes, and quiet enough that you notice the light changing rather than the motor.
Security and access
Answer the door from anywhere.
Cameras and alarms chosen to suit the building, positioned where they are actually useful, and set up so you are not woken every time a cat crosses the drive.
Cameras worth having
Enough detail to recognise a face at the gate rather than a smudge. Recorded locally so the footage is yours, with sensible alerts rather than constant ones.
Door entry
See and speak to whoever is at the door from the kitchen or from two hundred miles away, and let a trusted visitor in without leaving a key under a pot.
Alarms that join in
Professionally fitted, monitored if you want it, and integrated so the lights come on when the alarm goes off rather than sitting in their own silo.
Working from home, or running the business from the spare room? We set up home offices that tie properly back into the company network.

Start with one room if you like.
Plenty of our work starts with a single cinema room or one stubborn Wi-Fi blackspot. Book a visit and we will tell you honestly what is worth doing.
