Smart Home
in London.
Smart home kit is easy to buy and a pain to install. Mounting on brick, wiring a doorbell to the transformer, retuning your router for 2.4GHz, then pairing it all in an app that forgot your password.

How I work
I fit the device, wire it up safely, connect it to your Wi-Fi, and test the app works before I leave. Ring doorbell on a Victorian brick frame — 45 minutes including pre-drilling and plugs. Nest thermostat — 1–2 hours with backplate wiring. I'll walk you through the app too — no watch-YouTube-again-when-it-breaks.
Questions
- Can you fit a Ring doorbell?
- Yes — battery or hardwired. On brick, timber or PVC doorframes. I mount, wire (if hardwired), connect to Wi-Fi and walk you through the app.
- Can you fit a Nest thermostat?
- Yes, providing you have a compatible boiler. I check the wiring (S-plan, Y-plan, combi) and fit correctly. Usually 1–2 hours.
- Do you fit CCTV?
- Yes — standalone cameras (Ring, Eufy, Arlo) and small 4-camera NVR systems. Full commercial CCTV gets referred to a specialist.
