Home Automation
At London Tech Solutions, we transform your home into a truly intelligent living environment using Control4 — the premier platform for sophisticated home automation installation in London, Ontario. From your first tap on the app to the moment you walk through the door, every element of your home responds to you: lights adjust to the scene, your favourite music fills the room, the climate is exactly right, and your security system confirms all is well.
Our Control4 systems offer a unified experience that brings every element of your home into a single, intuitive interface — no juggling multiple apps, no confusing smart speaker commands. Just one elegant system that works the way you live.
We design and install smart home systems for homeowners across London, Ontario and Southwestern Ontario, from new custom builds to retrofit installations in existing homes.
-
Multi-Room Audio
Fill your home with high-fidelity sound without the clutter of wires or bulky speakers. Our multi-room audio solutions allow you to stream different playlists in every room or sync the entire house for a party, all controlled through one intuitive app. From architectural speakers that blend into your ceiling to outdoor audio that transforms your patio, we deliver studio-quality sound that follows you wherever you go.
-
Lighting Control
Effortlessly set the mood and enhance your home’s efficiency with Control4 smart lighting. Move beyond traditional switches with elegant, custom-engraved keypads that allow you to activate entire "scenes" with a single touch—like a "Goodnight" button that turns off every light and arms your security system. Our lighting solutions work in harmony with your motorized shades and occupancy sensors to maximize natural light, reduce energy costs, and even simulate occupancy while you're away for added peace of mind.

Motorized Shades
Elevate your interior design while optimizing comfort with motorized window treatments. Integrated directly into your Control4 system, our shades allow you to manage privacy and natural light with effortless precision. Whether programmed to rise with the sun or lower automatically to prevent solar heat gain and protect your furniture, motorized shades play a vital role in your home’s energy efficiency. With a vast selection of premium fabrics and whisper-quiet motors, we provide a seamless blend of luxury, convenience, and sophisticated climate control.
Our Smart Home Installation Process
Every home automation project begins with a design consultation.
We learn how you live — your daily routines, your entertainment preferences, your security priorities — and design a system around that. We don't sell you features you won't use.
Once the design is approved, our team handles the full installation: pre-wiring, hardware installation, programming, and commissioning. Every Control4 system we install is custom programmed — your scenes, your schedules, your preferences. We don't hand you a manual and wish you luck. We walk you through the entire system and are available for support whenever you need us.
Everything Under One Roof - and One App
A Control4 smart home installation from London Tech Solutions can include:
Multi-Room Audio — stream music to any room or every room, controlled from your phone, a keypad, or voice.
Lighting Control — custom scenes activated with a single tap. "Movie Night," "Dinner," "Away," "Goodnight" — all programmed to your preferences with Control4 smart lighting.
Motorized Shades — rise with the sun, lower at sunset, or schedule them around your day for privacy and energy efficiency.
Climate Control — thermostat schedules and temperature zones integrated into your automation scenes.
Security Integration — cameras, smart locks, and alarm sensors woven directly into your Control4 system for complete home awareness from one interface.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How much does home automation installation cost in London, Ontario?
A: Home automation is highly customizable, so pricing varies widely based on the size of your home and the features you want. A focused system (audio + lighting) might start around $5,000–$10,000. Whole-home Control4 systems with shades, climate, security integration, and full AV distribution can be significantly more. We provide detailed design proposals with transparent pricing before any commitment.
Q: Can Control4 be added to an existing home or is it only for new builds?
A: Control4 can absolutely be retrofitted into existing homes. Some features (like in-wall speakers and keypads) are easier to add during construction, but the majority of Control4 functionality can be added to an existing home with minimal disruption. We've completed retrofit installations in century homes across London, Ontario.
Q: Does Control4 work with Alexa, Google, or Apple HomeKit?
A: Yes. Control4 integrates with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant for voice control, as well as thousands of other smart home devices. It acts as the central hub that unifies all your smart home technology into one system.
Q: What happens if my internet goes down?
A: Core Control4 functions — lighting scenes, audio, climate control — continue to work on your local network even without internet. Remote access (viewing cameras from outside the home, for example) requires an internet connection, but your in-home experience is unaffected.
Q: Do I need ongoing support after installation?
A: Control4 is a sophisticated system, and we're here for ongoing support. We offer remote monitoring, system updates, and on-site service as needed. Most clients find the system extremely reliable once commissioned — but we're always a phone call away.
