A Thoughtful Consultation to Understand Your Lifestyle
During your initial consultation, we focus on learning how you live and what you value most at home. You may enjoy outdoor entertaining, love hosting movie nights, or want smarter lighting to match your routines. Whatever your smart home priorities, our goal is to listen, then tailor a solution that fits naturally into your life and space.
We’ll also walk through your home (or plans if you’re in the construction phase) to discuss room functionality, design considerations, and integration opportunities. This helps us recommend only what’s necessary, using technology to complement your aesthetics, not compete with them.
Custom System Design Fits Your Vision
Once we understand your goals, we create a customized system design. This includes everything from component selection to control systems, wiring plans, and visual considerations. Our team prioritizes clean installations, reliable performance, and future-ready flexibility.
We might recommend a Savant-based whole-home automation system paired with Lutron lighting control, or Coastal Source outdoor audio that blends beautifully into your landscape. Every recommendation is driven by performance, longevity, and your unique preferences.
During this phase, you’ll receive a detailed proposal that outlines scope, timelines, and milestones. Transparency is key, and we take the time to walk you through every element so you feel comfortable with your investment.
Professional Installation with Attention to Detail
After approvals, our in-house team gets to work, carefully managing every step of the installation. From wiring and equipment placement to programming and testing, our technicians bring the same precision and professionalism to projects ranging from single-room upgrades to full-home automation.
We coordinate with your builder, designer, or electrician to seamlessly integrate into your existing plans or décor. If retrofitting, we use methods that minimize disruption and maintain the integrity of your home.
And yes—our team shows up on time, cleans up after themselves, and respects your home like it’s their own. It’s one of the reasons so many homeowners recommend us.
A Personalized Walkthrough & Easy-to-Use Systems
Once installation is complete, we guide you through every feature of your new system. During this hands-on walkthrough, we make sure you know exactly how to use your remotes, app interfaces, lighting scenes, or entertainment zones.
Our systems are designed for simplicity, so adjusting motorized shades, streaming music in the backyard, and everything in between can be done with just a few taps or a voice command.
Ongoing Support When You Need It
One of the biggest advantages of working with ELITE Control & Design is our long-term commitment. Technology evolves, and so can your needs. That’s why we provide ongoing service and support, including remote system monitoring and fast response times if an issue arises. Our team also offers optional maintenance plans to keep everything running smoothly with proactive check-ins.
