Home Assistant Server Setup
Everything starts with a solid foundation. I'll get Home Assistant installed, configured, and connected to your network — ready to take on whatever devices and automations come next.
Server Installation
Home Assistant OS installed on dedicated hardware (Raspberry Pi, mini PC, or your preferred device), configured for reliability and easy long-term maintenance.
Network Configuration
Static IP assignment, local DNS, and remote access set up securely so you can reach your smart home from anywhere without exposing it to unnecessary risk.
Z-Wave & Zigbee
USB stick or integrated radio configured and integrated into Home Assistant. Coordinator firmware updated, mesh network validated, and ready for device pairing.
Bluetooth, Infrared & Matter
Bluetooth proxies, IR blasters, and Matter controllers set up so your full range of devices — new and legacy — can be brought into one unified system.
Integration
Devices Integrated
With the foundation in place, I'll connect and pair your smart home devices — lights, sensors, locks, switches, cameras, climate, and more — so everything is visible and controllable from Home Assistant.
Device Pairing
Every device paired to its appropriate protocol — Zigbee, Z-Wave, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or Matter — with meaningful names and organised into rooms from day one.
Integration Setup
Cloud and local integrations configured for your existing ecosystem — Google Home, Apple HomeKit, Philips Hue, IKEA, Sonos, smart TVs, and dozens more.
Validation & Testing
Every device tested end-to-end. Mesh coverage checked, response times verified, and any connectivity issues resolved before handover.
Basic Automations
A starter set of automations to make the installation immediately useful — lights on arrival, away mode, and a simple dashboard to tie it all together.
Handover
Handover
A great installation is only half the job. You'll finish with a solid understanding of how your system works and everything you need to manage and expand it confidently.
One-on-One Training
A dedicated session walking you through your new system — how to control devices, adjust automations, add new devices, and get help when you need it. Tailored to your level of interest.
System Documentation
A clear written record of your setup: every device, its protocol, location, and any quirks. Network details, access credentials, and a map of your automations — yours to keep and build on.
Post-Install Support
A follow-up window after installation to answer questions, resolve anything that comes up, and make sure you feel confident managing your system day to day.
Companion App Setup
The Home Assistant companion app installed and configured on your phone, with location tracking, notifications, and quick-action widgets ready to use.
