Premier Smart Homes

If I could give these guys 11/10, I would. For anyone considering home automation, I highly recommend this company for two main reasons: (1) the team and their work ethic, and (2) the Control4 home automation system.

I have never worked with a more diligent, dedicated, SMART group of contractors. These guys are true experts at what they do. There is no problem that they aren't able to troubleshoot. They are extremely responsive to any requests. They know their systems inside and out, and are very creative in finding solutions that fit your home - which is not always easy.

Also, the Control4 interface is absolutely amazing. Forgive the layperson description here. It works over wifi, so there is no need for breaking drywall or for hardwire installations. The Control4 app is intuitive and easy to use, and we can basically control our home from our iPhones, our TV, and a 'smart' remote control (or you can get build in wall consoles or iPads). We have full control of our lighting system, security, motorized blinds, audiovisual systems, and thermostats, 24/7, from anywhere in the world. We also have motion-sensor activated lighting in certain areas - so no need to ever touch a light switch if you don't want to. However, the Control4 customized keypads (which replace your regular light switches) are so cool that you WILL still want to press buttons on the wall. They look modern and sleek, they light up in the dark, and the various buttons control various lighting 'scenes', meaning that they can control numerous lights at the same time. We have buttons that turn off all the lights in the house (by the front door and in the master bedroom), or buttons that give us just the right lighting when we want to 'dine', 'cook', or watch a 'movie'. The system is very customizable. It's amazing. I really could not be happier with our Smart home, and now that I've experienced digitally interacting with various aspects of the house via Control4, I don't think I could 'live' any other way.

I am attaching photos of a few of our keypads, the Control4 interphase at it appears on the TV, and a shot of the living room. The motorized panel track (curtain) and the swivelling TV mount were all installed by Premier Smart Homes.
