Smart Home · San Francisco, California
Smart home wiring in San Francisco usually fails on one detail: the switch box has no neutral. We run the neutral, install the smart switches and dimmers, power the doorbell and cameras properly and leave you with a system that still works when the Wi-Fi hiccups.

How it goes

We open the panel, test the affected circuits and tell you what is actually wrong, including the parts you would rather not hear.

Reviews
Old fuse box, 60 amp service, and a kitchen remodel booked in six weeks. They handled the utility coordination and the inspection so I did not have to.
Smart switches in a 1970s house with no neutrals anywhere. They ran neutrals to nine boxes and everything works from the app and from the wall.
Straightforward quote, no upsell, showed up when they said. Added four outlets and a dedicated circuit for the freezer in half a day.
Questions
Either we run a neutral to the box, or we fit a smart switch designed for no-neutral installs. Running the neutral is more reliable long term, and in most San Francisco homes it is easier than people assume.
Yes. Most doorbell problems are an undersized old transformer. We fit the right transformer and wiring so the camera does not brown out every time it records.
Yes — Cat6 data drops, structured wiring panels and clean network closets, run alongside the electrical rather than tangled through it.
It should. We specify and wire systems so the wall switch always works locally, with the app as a layer on top rather than the only way to turn a light on.
Yes, on any work that requires one — service and panel upgrades, rewires, new circuits in some jurisdictions, and most commercial work. We pull the permit and schedule the inspection as part of the job.
