Frequently Asked Questions
What is included in a smart home consultation?
Our consultation includes: a detailed needs assessment, lifestyle and usage analysis, budget discussion, technology recommendations, system architecture planning, and a comprehensive proposal. We visit your property (or review plans for new builds) to understand the space and your vision.
How much does a consultation cost?
Initial consultations are complimentary for serious projects. Detailed design proposals with drawings and specifications start from AED 2,500, which is credited toward your project if you proceed. Complex commercial projects may have separate design fees based on scope.
How long does the consultation process take?
Initial consultations take 1-2 hours on-site or at our Experience Centre. Detailed proposals are delivered within 5-7 business days. For complex projects, the design phase may take 2-4 weeks to ensure all systems are properly specified and integrated.
Can you work with my interior designer and architect?
Absolutely - we collaborate regularly with designers and architects. Early involvement ensures technology is planned into the design, not added as an afterthought. We provide technical drawings, equipment locations, and coordinate cable pathways to minimize visible equipment.
What information should I prepare for a consultation?
Helpful items include: floor plans, elevation drawings, a list of desired features, photos of your current space (for retrofits), interior design mood boards, and budget expectations. Don't worry if you don't have everything - we can guide the discussion regardless.
Do you design systems for new construction?
Yes, we specialize in new construction where we can design the ideal infrastructure. We provide cable layouts, equipment locations, and conduit requirements to your contractor. Early involvement ensures optimal placement and avoids costly post-construction modifications.
Can you visit my property outside Dubai?
Yes, we serve all UAE emirates and GCC countries for projects meeting minimum scope requirements. Travel costs may apply for distant locations. For initial discussions, we can conduct video consultations and review plans remotely before on-site visits.
What if I don't know what I want?
That's perfectly fine - many clients start with a general idea of 'making their home smart.' Our consultation process helps identify what matters most to you through questions about your lifestyle, pain points, and priorities. We then recommend solutions that match your actual needs.
