Smart Living & Home Entertainment – Connected Homes Across Dorset

Simple, Secure, and Connected Homes Across Dorset. From smart lighting to home-cinema systems, I help you enjoy a safer, smarter, and more connected home. Based in West Dorset, I install and configure the latest smart-home technology so it works seamlessly around your lifestyle.

Smart Home & Voice Assistants

Smart Home & Voice Assistants

Alexa, Google & Apple Home Setup. I set up and configure Alexa, Google Nest, and Apple HomeKit devices, plus smart lighting, plugs, sensors, and switches. I’ll link everything together securely so your smart home is easy to control by voice or app. 


I can help with:

 

  • Alexa, Google Nest, and Apple HomeKit setup: add hubs/devices, link accounts, and get everything controllable by voice or app.
     
  • Smart lighting, plugs, sensors, and switches: pick compatible gear, pair reliably, name/room-map devices, and fix drop-offs.
     
  • Automation routines, schedules, and scene creation: “Away,” “Bedtime,” and energy-saving scenes; sunrise/sunset triggers; geofencing.
     
  • Device security, firmware updates, and privacy settings: lock down permissions, update safely, disable unwanted data sharing.
     
  • Smart speakers & audio assistants – setup and linking across devices: multi-room audio, default music services, intercom/broadcast, and household member profiles.

Smart Heating & Thermostats

Efficient Control for Every Home. Whether it’s Nest, Hive, or Tado, I install and integrate smart thermostats with your existing heating system. You’ll have zoned control, energy savings, and reliable connectivity throughout your home. 


I can help with: 

 

  • Nest, Hive, and Tado installation: select the right kit, mount thermostats, wire receivers, and complete app setup.
     
  • Integration with existing heating systems: combi/system/regular boilers, S-plans/Y-plans, underfloor, and hot-water control.
     
  • Schedule and zone configuration: create room zones, optimise schedules, geofencing, holiday modes, and energy-saving tweaks.
     
  • Connectivity and calibration support: stable Wi-Fi linking, sensor placement, temperature offsets, and firmware updates.

CCTV & Home Security

Reliable Installation & Remote Monitoring. I install wired or wireless cameras, configure recording systems, and set up secure remote viewing on your phone or tablet. Every system is designed for safety, privacy, and ease of use. 


I can help with:

 

  • Wired or wireless camera installation and configuration: PoE or Wi-Fi setup, stable mounts, tidy cabling, secure accounts/MFA, and RTSP where needed.
     
  • NVR / DVR / cloud recording setup: local HDD/NAS, Homebase/Hub, or cloud plans; motion-triggered and continuous recording, retention policies, and time sync.
     
  • Remote-viewing on phone, tablet, or TV: app setup, shared access, smart-TV tiles/Apple TV/Fire TV, and notifications that aren’t noisy.
     
  • Camera placement and performance optimisation: best angles, height, IR/night-vision tuning, smart motion zones, privacy masks, and bandwidth/QoS tweaks.
     
  • CCTV / security upgrades and smart integration: add doorbells/floodlights, migrate legacy kits, integrate with Alexa/Google/HomeKit, and harden networks (VLANs, WPA3, firmware).
