Home automation overlaps electrical and data work, and the scope swings enormously — from a single smart doorbell to a whole-home KNX or Crestron system — so the price drivers are cabling, device counts, control platforms and how well the gear integrates. Tradewin prices each job against your real hardware and labour costs and sends a clear quote that reflects the true scope, not a finger-in-the-air number. Save your common installs — smart lighting circuits, network fit-outs, motorised blinds — as TradeWin Recipes™ so the next quote is a two-tap job.

Pre-loaded job types with benchmarks — plus the ability to add your own custom jobs.
The same job can vary widely. Tradewin prices against your real costs, so these factors are built in — not guessed.
Multi-room audio zones, lighting circuits, cameras and access points scale the hardware and the commissioning time — the count drives the number.
Running data and control cabling through existing walls and ceilings, and the access point count on a Wi-Fi job, add labour a plug-in device never will.
Basic voice control prices nothing like a full KNX or Crestron install — the platform sets the licensing, programming and integration effort.
Tying HVAC, blinds, security and EV or solar into one hub depends on brand compatibility, so integration is where scope and price quietly grow.
EV Charger & Solar Integration
Battery system compatibility and load management complexity affect pricing.
Home Network / Wi-Fi Installation
Access point count, cabling, and configuration requirements vary.
Motorised Blinds / Curtains
Motor brand, control system, and integration with smart hub vary pricing.
Multi-Room Audio System
Zone count, speaker spec, and amplifier requirements drive variation.
Smart HVAC Control
Thermostat brand, zone count, and integration requirements affect pricing.
Smart Lighting System
Number of circuits, brand, and integration complexity affect pricing.
