Cost by system
What each system costs.

Cost drivers
What affects project cost.
Property size & scope
Room count, square footage, guest houses, and outdoor spaces shape the hardware, cabling, design, and programming required.
New vs. existing
New construction lets infrastructure be planned before walls close. In an existing home, careful retrofit work can add time and labor.
Platform choice
Savant typically runs 20–40% higher than Control4. Lutron HomeWorks costs more than RadioRA 3 but delivers a stronger experience at scale.
Plan timing
Early coordination with the architect and builder helps protect both performance and budget. Learn how to avoid the closed wall tax.
Designed around the residence
A proposal should show the complete picture.
Clear documentation, a considered infrastructure plan, and a scope that can evolve with the home are the difference between a collection of devices and a dependable system.
