What changes the price?
The actual quantities
Lighting circuits, dimmable loads, AC zones, curtain tracks and motors matter more than bedroom count alone.
Compatibility and infrastructure
Gateways, wiring, power provision, network equipment and access can change the work needed.
Installation and aftercare
Programming, commissioning, making good, training, warranties and recurring licences must be stated.

Items to separate explicitly
- Equipment and installation, including any interfaces or network upgrades.
- Curtain fabric, decorative light fittings and interior finishes.
- Electrical work, cabling, permissions and making good.
- Taxes, subscriptions, software licences and aftercare.
An illustrative scope comparison
A living room with one switched circuit and a standalone curtain motor is different from a room with multiple dimmable circuits, two tracks, AC control and a physical scene keypad. Ask every provider to price the same room brief before comparing totals.
Payment and changes
Survey fees, deposits, progress payments, cancellations and variation charges are set by the contracting partner and must be agreed in writing. No payment or booking is created by the budget guide or enquiry form.
Compare with confidence.
