Everything your home needs to feel connected

Our approach

Technology that adapts to your home, not the other way round

Many smart home systems need to be planned before the walls are finished. Ours fit into the home you already live in.

No invasive installation

No rewiring and no construction work: the system fits into the home you already live in.

Any brand

Google Home, Siri, Alexa, Tuya, eWeLink, Alice and more. If it's smart, we can integrate it.

Private by design

Local control and your own servers keep your data on your network, not on someone else's cloud.

Grows with you

Start small and add rooms, devices and services as your needs change.

Simple to use

Clear apps, dashboards and voice commands. No engineering degree required.

No subscriptions

Open-source software you own. A one-time setup instead of monthly fees.

About Homes Tek

One person, from first message to finished setup

Homes Tek is a one-person business. The person you message is the same person who plans, installs and supports your system: no call centre, no hand-offs, and someone who knows your setup when you need help later.

I run my own Unraid servers with a private cloud, photo library and media server every day, so I know these systems from daily use, not just from installing them. Every setup is tailored to your home, and I only recommend what I would use myself.
