Our Smart Home Services

From simple smart lighting upgrades to full home automation systems, we handle every aspect of your smart home installation. Our services include smart lighting controls and dimmer systems, smart thermostat installation (Hive, Nest, Tado), automated blinds and curtain wiring, smart doorbell and intercom installation, whole-home Wi-Fi infrastructure and cabling, voice assistant integration (Alexa, Google Home), smart security systems and camera wiring, and USB charging socket upgrades throughout your home.

Why Choose MP Electrical for Smart Home Installation?

Smart home technology needs to be installed correctly to work reliably and safely. As a NAPIT-registered electrician, Mat ensures every installation meets current wiring regulations (18th Edition BS 7671). We take the time to understand how you want your home to work, then design a system that fits your lifestyle and budget.

Unlike generic tech installers, we handle all the electrical work in-house. That means no subcontractors, no miscommunication, and a single point of contact from start to finish. Every installation comes with a full test and certification.

How Much Does Smart Home Installation Cost?

Smart home costs vary depending on the scope of the project — from a simple smart lighting setup in a few rooms to a full home automation system with multiple zones covering lighting, heating, security, and entertainment. Every home is different, so we provide free, no-obligation quotes tailored to exactly what you want. Call 07817 171954 to discuss your project.

Smart Lighting Installation

Smart lighting is the most popular starting point for homeowners looking to make their home smarter. We install systems that let you control every light in your house from your phone, a wall switch, or your voice — and the wiring behind it all needs to be done properly.

Our smart lighting work includes:

• Smart dimmer switches: Replace your existing switches with smart dimmers that give you full control over brightness and can be scheduled or triggered by routines
• Zone lighting: Separate circuits for different areas so you can control kitchen, living room, and bedroom lighting independently
• Outdoor smart lighting: Motion-activated security lights, pathway lighting, and garden accent lighting all controllable from your phone
• LED downlight upgrades: Replace old halogen fittings with energy-efficient LED downlights that work with smart controls

All smart lighting installations are wired to meet the current Wiring Regulations and tested before handover. We make sure every switch, dimmer, and fitting works reliably with your chosen smart home platform.

Smart Security and CCTV Wiring

A smart security system is only as good as the wiring behind it. We install the electrical infrastructure for smart doorbells, CCTV cameras, alarm systems, and intercoms — ensuring reliable power, clean cable runs, and proper weatherproofing for outdoor equipment.

Whether you want a simple Ring or Nest doorbell hardwired for reliable power, a full CCTV system with multiple cameras and a network video recorder, or a smart alarm with door and window sensors, we handle the electrical side so everything works first time and keeps working.

Whole-Home Network and Wi-Fi Cabling

Smart home devices rely on a strong, reliable network connection. If your Wi-Fi drops out in certain rooms, your smart lights and thermostats become unreliable. We install structured Cat6 Ethernet cabling throughout your home, giving you wired backhaul for Wi-Fi access points and a rock-solid foundation for all your connected devices.

This is especially important in larger or older properties where thick walls and multiple floors can block wireless signals. A properly cabled network with access points in the right locations gives you full coverage without dead spots.

Energy Management and Smart Thermostats

Smart thermostats like Hive, Nest, and Tado learn your routine and adjust heating automatically, cutting energy waste without sacrificing comfort. Installation involves replacing your existing thermostat and wiring the smart controller to your boiler — a job that needs doing correctly to avoid damaging the boiler controls.

We also install energy monitoring systems that show you exactly where your electricity is going, helping you identify wasteful appliances and reduce your bills. If you have solar panels or a battery storage system, smart energy management becomes even more valuable — we can integrate everything so your home uses as much free solar energy as possible.

How We Approach Smart Home Projects

Every smart home installation starts with understanding what you actually want to achieve. Some homeowners want the convenience of voice-controlled lighting. Others want a full automation system that handles heating, lighting, security, and entertainment. We work with you to plan a system that fits your lifestyle and your property.

• Consultation: We discuss what you want, assess your property’s existing wiring, and recommend the best approach
• Planning: We design the wiring layout, circuit allocation, and switch positioning before any work starts
• Installation: All wiring is installed to BS 7671 standards with proper circuit protection and labelling
• Configuration: We set up your smart home app, connect all devices, and create automation routines so everything works together
• Handover: We walk you through how to use and manage your system, and we are always available if you need help later
