   We were recommended Carbon Integration for our home cinema project & control 4.

On-site, Jeevan has been a pleasure to deal with and his entire team works diligently to get the job done. Everything is left incredibly clean and presentable after work has been carried out.

We had some initial back and forth around designs but I’m glad we listened to the team’s recommendations in the end. I’d highly recommend these guys!

   We had an existing Lutron lighting system that needed upgrading that was 10+ years old. Jeevan at Carbon came over after finding them on google to assess our current system. We were offered a couple of different options, a partial upgrade or a complete upgrade, and both options were excellently explained in terms even I could understand. We decided to go with the complete upgrade, great work guys. Smart lighting at it's best!

   Working with Carbon Integration has been a pleasure. They are all so accommodating and professional, offering brilliant advice and smart home maintenance. We have had work carried out by them since 2015 and carried on having small bits of work here and there, and they've always been at the end of a phone to help.

   Our main contractor initially brought Carbon to advise on our project in Gerrards Cross. They installed a Control4 system to control the whole home. It is so nice not to have a million and one remotes to control different items and one system that can control them all. I highly recommend the guys over at Carbon; working with them has felt like a real collaboration from start to finish. Thanks, Indi!

   I wasn't sure about all the work my husband wanted to have done on a media room, but I have to admit it was well worth it! Watching movies at home now is better than going to the cinema! Brilliant work, guys. Thanks so much.

   Met Indy and Jeevan around 6 years ago by accident. Turned out to be fabulous! They totally changed our initial lighting plans for the better. Installed a Gira KNX system with some fancy light switches and app. The guys are fantastic and are always on hand with any issues or upgrades. I highly recommend them.

Steps Of A Smart Home Installation

We appreciate the installation of a smart home might be overwhelming to start with, so we have broken down the installation into several steps, including:

Planning: Assessing your needs and requirements and determining the scope of the smart home installation. This may involve identifying the desired functionalities, such as smart lighting, thermostats, security systems, entertainment systems, or voice assistants.
Device selection: Choosing the appropriate smart devices and systems based on your requirements. This can include smart bulbs, smart thermostats, smart locks, smart cameras, smart speakers, and other compatible devices.
Home mock-ups: Creating a 3D rendering of your space, so you can see exactly how everything is going to work.
Network setup: Ensuring a robust and reliable internet connection throughout your home to support the smart devices’ communication and functionality. This may involve setting up a reliable Wi-Fi network or using wired connections.
Device installation: Physically installing and connecting the smart devices in their designated locations. This may involve mounting smart cameras, installing smart switches, replacing existing thermostats, or integrating smart plugs as part of your smart home.
Configuration and integration: Setting up the smart devices to work together and connect to a central hub or smart home platform. This involves connecting devices to your smartphone or tablet and configuring automation routines, schedules, and rules.
Testing and troubleshooting: Verifying the functionality of each smart device and ensuring they are working as intended. Troubleshooting any connectivity issues, addressing compatibility problems, or adjusting settings as needed.
Client education: Providing you with instructions and guidance on how to operate and control the smart home system. This includes teaching you how to use mobile apps, voice commands, or automation features to manage the connected devices.
Aftercare: Your smart home installation will be extremely reliable. However, like all technology, the systems need regular software updates, monitoring and maintenance to keep them functioning at their best. Our aftercare plan will help with this if you need it.

It’s worth noting that the complexity and extent of the smart home installation process may vary depending on the specific devices and systems chosen, the size of the home, and your preferences.

Smart home installation companies - who to go for?

The cost of a media wall in the UK can vary depending on several factors, including the size of the wall, the materials used, the complexity of the design, and any additional features or customisations. Here’s a general overview of potential costs:

Basic Setup: For a simple media wall without many bells and whistles, including a TV mount, shelving, and basic cable management, you might expect to pay anywhere from £500 to £1,500. This cost can vary depending on the quality of materials and whether you opt for DIY installation or hire professionals.
Mid-Range Setup: If you’re looking for a more customized design with integrated lighting, built-in speakers, hidden wiring, and perhaps some decorative elements, you could be looking at a cost of £1,500 to £5,000. This price range accounts for higher-quality materials, professional installation, and additional features.
High-End Setup: For a premium media wall with top-of-the-line materials, advanced technology integration, custom cabinetry, and intricate design elements, you could be looking at a cost of £5,000 to £15,000 or more. This price range reflects the investment in luxury materials, craftsmanship, and specialized features tailored to your specific requirements.
Additional Costs: It’s essential to consider any additional costs beyond the initial installation, such as the price of the TV or projector, sound system, media players, and other entertainment devices. These costs can vary widely depending on the brands and specifications you choose.
Professional Installation: While DIY installation is an option for some media walls, hiring professionals ensures proper installation, customization, and integration of all components. Professional installation costs can vary depending on the complexity of the project and the rates charged by the installer.

Overall, the cost of a media wall in the UK can range from a few hundred pounds to several thousand pounds, depending on your preferences and budget. It’s essential to carefully consider your needs, desired features, and quality expectations when planning your media wall project.
