Top Home Automation and Security related questions

Installing home automation and security systems may vary in costs, depending on several factors such as the scope of the installation, the type and brand of smart devices, the location of your household, and your Tasker’s experience. 


As a general guide, expect to invest around £500 for installing basic, non-hardwired heating and lighting controls. For a comprehensive smart home system professionally installed, providing control over lighting, heating, security alarms, multi-room audio, and window treatments through a single platform or device, costs can range up to £50,000, depending on the equipment chosen. To get a precise estimate, request a detailed quote from your Tasker.

Home automation technology is designed to improve daily life. These systems are integrated into home appliances and furnishings, allowing fixtures like lighting, curtains, and thermostats to operate automatically based on your preferences. This enables remote monitoring and management of your home via smartphone or another device, offering you complete control over household equipment regardless of where you are.

It's optional. The tools and equipment required depend on the type of home automation and security service you need. While most smart home companies provide the necessary devices, some services may require third-party applications or controllers, such as your phone or tablet. On the other hand, some Taskers may also request tools like screwdrivers, pliers, wire cutters, and voltage testers for safety purposes. 

Absolutely! Many home automation and security systems can enhance the efficiency and value of existing or older houses. Often, all you need is a stable network connection and a smartphone to access and control your smart home system. If you're concerned about the hassle of rewiring and retrofitting, request your Tasker to install wireless home automation devices that run on batteries.

The duration varies based on the items you want to automate and the scope of the installation. Installing smart lights in a single room might only take a few hours while automating the entire house will take longer. Comprehensive smart home installations, involving nearly every system in your home, typically take one to three weeks. This timeframe can be extended further if the service requires detailed planning and setup by a professional. You can request a more accurate timeline from your Tasker.

Yes! Specify this detail on your Airtasker listing to get in touch with qualified specialists who can integrate your home automation system with your solar panels. This integration ensures that your smart lights, sensors, and other automated devices use minimal energy. For example, you can set automated dishwashers or washing machines to operate only when solar energy is abundant. If you need assistance installing your solar panels, Taskers can help with this as well, as a separate service.

Airtasker prioritises transparency to help you find the most suitable Tasker for your project. Evaluate a Tasker's qualifications and the quality of their previous work using the platform’s built-in reviews and rating system. This way, you can make an informed decision based on the experiences of other clients.

What do home automation services include?

Integrating home automation and security systems into your household allows you to effortlessly take control of your appliances, curtains, lighting, and other fixtures. Adjust the indoor temperature or turn on the lights using your smartphone or voice activation! 


If you fancy this upgrade but are uncertain about how to proceed, you can easily hire specialists on Airtasker to plan and install automation systems in your desired areas. Make sure your home network is fully set up and stable, as most automation systems nowadays require a WiFi connection. If you've recently moved or need to automate areas with poor connectivity, such as the loft or cellar, you can book a separate service to address this.


Here are services you can request from home automation or home security installers near you:


Home lighting automation

Those new to smart home technology often start by integrating home lighting automation. There are several options available depending on your preferences. Many opt for remote lighting control using their phone, laptop, or other mobile devices. Alternatively, motion-sensor or voice-activated lighting can add a touch of comfort and style.


Curtain and blinds automation

Do you have restricted mobility? Or are you simply tired of manually controlling your curtains and blinds? Either way, you can enlist specialists to install motorised tracks for your window treatments, allowing you to operate them via remote control or a WiFi controller. If your window treatments aren't yet in place, you can hire a Tasker to fit your curtains or blinds, install curtain rods, or even put up outdoor blinds for your home.


Thermostat automation

Smart thermostats can greatly enhance the efficiency of your HVAC system. In addition to regular scheduling, these automated systems enable remote control of your heating and cooling equipment, even when you’re not on the premises. Even better, thermostat automation can reduce electricity bills and minimise your carbon footprint. If you are uncertain which smart thermostat is best suited for your HVAC system, you can seek advice from your Tasker or ask them to purchase on your behalf.


Home security services automation

Improve your quality of life and ease of mind with the latest home automation and security technologies. Book home security installers near you to set up advanced CCTV cameras around the house, repair a burglar alarm, or even connect your security system to your new phone. By getting the proper security system and alarm servicing for your household, you no longer have to worry about intruders, even if you accidentally leave your door unlocked when you're away from home.


Automation system maintenance and repair

To keep your system secure and long-lasting, you should have it regularly checked by experts. If you’ve started experiencing glitches with your home automation, don’t wait any longer until a minor issue grows into a major inconvenience! Avoid the risk of having to replace the entire system by booking repair services as early as possible. If the problem lies in your home network, you can also book a Tasker to troubleshoot this for you.
