Smart Home Installation Reigate
Professional home automation designed around your property and the way you live
Surrey Smarthome provides professional smart home installation in Reigate, designed around your home, lifestyle and future plans. We integrate intelligent lighting, smart heating, security, CCTV, automated blinds, multi-room audio, electric gates and video door entry.
We can also incorporate EV charging and energy management into a wider smart home system. As Loxone specialists, we design and programme connected technology that works together through one easy-to-use platform. Everything remains simple to control from wall switches, a smartphone or tablet. However, the system can also automate everyday tasks quietly in the background.
Reigate has a varied housing mix, from Victorian and Edwardian properties to 1930s detached homes and contemporary developments. Areas such as Reigate Hill and Wray Common also contain substantial family homes, often adapted through extensions and major renovations. Older properties may benefit from careful retrofit planning, while renovations create opportunities to install cabling before walls are finished. Therefore, we tailor every system to the building rather than applying the same solution to every home.
We work across Reigate, including Reigate Hill, Wray Common, Woodhatch and South Park. Our service covers new builds, renovations, extensions, existing properties and complete whole-home automation projects. Whether you start with one system or automate the entire property, we plan everything with future expansion in mind.

Smart Home Planning for Reigate Homes
Planning smart home technology early can make a major difference during a renovation, extension or new-build project. We can consider electrical wiring, data cabling, control panels and equipment positions before walls and ceilings are finished. This helps lighting, heating, security, audio and other systems work together from the outset.
Early planning can also reduce disruption later and make future upgrades much easier. It allows us to design the system around the property, rather than fitting technology around completed finishes. For Reigate homes, this can be especially useful during major renovations or substantial extensions. Good planning creates a reliable, flexible system that remains simple to use and ready to expand.

Smart Heating Control
Comfort, room by room
Smart heating gives you precise control over temperatures across your Reigate home, helping each room feel comfortable when needed. Each zone can follow its own schedule, so bedrooms, living areas and home offices only heat when occupied. Sensors can also monitor temperature, humidity and occupancy, reducing wasted energy without sacrificing everyday comfort.
However, smart heating does more than manage room temperatures. It can work with underfloor heating, radiators, heat pumps, boilers, ventilation and cooling systems. Window and door sensors can lower heating automatically when fresh air enters. Unused rooms can remain at a lower temperature until they are needed again.
This flexibility suits Reigate’s varied homes, from period properties around Wray Common to renovated detached family houses. Therefore, every system can be planned around the building, your routine and future upgrades.
Intelligent Lighting Control
Flexible lighting for every room
Smart lighting gives you flexible control across your Reigate home, helping each room suit different activities and times. You can create scenes for dining, entertaining, relaxing or watching television, then activate them with one touch. Presence sensors can switch lights on when someone enters and turn them off when rooms are empty.
Daylight sensors can also reduce unnecessary energy use by adjusting lighting levels as natural light changes.
However, intelligent lighting is about more than convenience. It can improve security, highlight architectural features and create comfortable lighting throughout larger living spaces.
A smart lighting system can include:
- Room and whole-home lighting scenes
- Automatic occupancy lighting
- Dimming and mood lighting
- Exterior and garden lighting
- Holiday and security lighting
- Energy-saving automation
We can tailor lighting around your specific building, your daily routine and future plans.

Smart Security & CCTV Systems
Connected protection for your home
An integrated smart security system brings CCTV, alarms, lighting, video door entry and electric gates into one connected platform. This makes it easier to protect the house, garden and entrances from one place. Sensors can detect unexpected activity, while the system activates security lighting, records footage and sends alerts to your phone.
Smart security can also work alongside lighting, gates and other automation throughout the property.
Features can include:
- CCTV cameras
- Intruder detection
- Presence-based alarms
- Exterior security lighting
- Video door entry
- Electric gate control
- Access control
- Remote alerts
Remote access lets you monitor key areas when you are away from home. We can tailor each security system around the property, your routine and the level of protection required.

Hope Lacy
Reigate Smart Home Transformation
This 1930s detached Reigate home was transformed into a spacious, high-specification family property. Surrey Smarthome managed the full electrical and Loxone smart home installation from planning through to completion.
The system included intelligent lighting, CCTV, intercom, intruder protection, energy management and backup power. Careful energy monitoring also helped the client avoid a proposed second electrical phase, previously quoted at £31,000.

Smart FAQs
Read our FAQs which may help you find what you are looking for.
What is a smart home automation system?
A smart home automation system connects your home’s main functions through one intelligent platform. Lighting, heating, blinds, security, CCTV and door entry can then work together instead of operating separately.
For example, lights can respond when you arrive home, while heating adjusts automatically around your daily routine. Blinds can close in the evening, and security systems can react when sensors detect unexpected activity. This coordinated approach improves comfort, convenience and security without making everyday control complicated.
You can start with one feature, such as smart lighting, heating or security, and expand later. Alternatively, a complete Loxone system can automate multiple rooms and functions across the whole property. Both wired and wireless solutions are available, depending on the building and planned renovation work.
This flexibility suits Reigate’s varied housing, from period homes around Wray Common to modern family properties. A professionally designed system should feel simple to use and easy to control every day. Wall switches, smartphones and tablets can all provide familiar access when you want manual control.
Surrey Smarthome designs smart home systems for new builds, renovations and existing properties throughout Reigate.
What can be included in a smart home system?
What Your Reigate Smart Home Can Include
A smart home system can be tailored around your Reigate property, lifestyle and priorities. You might automate one room first or create a fully connected whole-home system.
Features can include intelligent lighting, heating control, CCTV, intruder alarms, video door entry and electric gates. Automated blinds, multi-room audio, ventilation, EV charging and energy management can also connect through the same platform.
For example, heating can lower when you leave, while lights and security respond automatically. Likewise, exterior lighting and CCTV can activate together when sensors detect unexpected movement.
Reigate homes vary from period properties to renovated family houses and modern developments. Therefore, we design each system around the building, your requirements and future plans.
You can also expand a well-planned Loxone system later as your needs change.
Can smart home automation be retrofitted into an older Reigate property?
Retrofitting Smart Home Technology in Reigate Homes
Yes. Smart home automation can be retrofitted into many older Reigate properties, including Victorian, Edwardian and 1930s homes.
The best approach depends on the building, existing wiring and how much renovation work you plan. Older homes often need careful planning to protect plasterwork, period details and finished interiors.
Wireless or hybrid Loxone systems can reduce the need for extensive new cabling. Therefore, you can often add lighting, heating, security, blinds and audio with less disruption.
During a major renovation or extension, a wired installation may also make sense. Cabling can then be planned before walls and ceilings are finished.
This flexibility suits homes around Wray Common, Reigate Hill and other established residential areas. We assess each property before recommending the most practical solution.
Your system can also expand later as your needs change, without necessarily automating the entire home at once.
Can lighting, heating and security work together?
How Your Reigate Smart Home Works as One System
A professionally designed smart home connects lighting, heating, security and blinds through one coordinated Loxone system. Each feature can respond automatically to your routines, rather than operating separately.
For example, leaving home can lower the heating, switch off lights, close blinds and activate security. If movement is detected outside, security lighting can switch on while CCTV starts recording. An alert can then be sent directly to your smartphone.
Likewise, heating can respond to room occupancy, open windows or changing temperatures throughout the day. Lighting scenes can support relaxing, entertaining or working, while blinds adjust automatically for comfort and privacy.
This integration can be especially useful in larger Reigate homes with several rooms, entrances or living zones. However, everyday control stays simple through familiar wall switches, smartphones or tablets. Your home works intelligently in the background, but you remain in control.
Should I choose a wired, wireless or hybrid smart home system?
Choosing the Right Smart Home Setup for Your Reigate Property
The best option depends on your property, renovation plans and the level of automation you want. Wired, wireless and hybrid systems can all work extremely well when designed properly.
A wired smart home system uses dedicated cabling to connect lighting, heating, blinds, security and other devices. This approach works especially well during new builds, major renovations or extensions. Cabling can then be installed before walls and ceilings are finished.
Wired systems offer excellent reliability and suit whole-home automation particularly well. They also make future expansion easier when the infrastructure has been planned carefully.
A wireless smart home system uses secure wireless technology instead of extensive new cabling. This can reduce disruption in finished homes, especially where existing interiors should remain untouched.
For many older Reigate properties, wireless technology can provide a practical retrofit solution. It can suit Victorian, Edwardian and 1930s homes where major rewiring may be undesirable.
A hybrid system combines both approaches. For example, we can use wired connections during renovation work and wireless technology elsewhere in the property.
This often gives Reigate homeowners a strong balance of reliability, flexibility and minimal disruption. Therefore, we assess the building before recommending the most suitable approach.
A well-planned Loxone system can also expand later as your needs or property change.
How much does smart home installation cost in Reigate?
Understanding Smart Home Installation Costs
The cost of smart home installation in Reigate depends on your property, chosen features and level of automation. A smaller project may focus on lighting, heating or security, while larger systems can connect the whole home.
Complete installations can include CCTV, blinds, audio, climate control, access systems, EV charging and energy management. New builds and major renovations can also make installation more straightforward because cabling can be planned early.
Existing Reigate homes may need a wireless or hybrid approach to reduce disruption. Property size, room numbers and the number of automated zones will also affect the overall cost.
Surrey Smarthome designs every system around the property rather than using a fixed package. Therefore, there is no single price that suits every Reigate home.
After an initial consultation, we can recommend suitable options and provide a clear, no-obligation quotation. This lets you compare priorities, budget and future expansion before deciding how far to automate.
Will my Loxone smart home still work if the internet goes down?
Local Control Keeps Essential Functions Running
A Loxone smart home can continue operating even if your internet connection temporarily goes down.
The Loxone Miniserver controls the main automation locally within your home. Therefore, core functions do not depend entirely on cloud-based services.
Lighting, heating, blinds and programmed routines can continue to operate normally. Wall switches and other local controls also remain available.
Some internet-dependent features may become temporarily unavailable. These can include remote access, push notifications and certain third-party online services.
Once your connection returns, those online functions can become available again.
This local control provides added reassurance for Reigate homeowners who want dependable automation every day. Your essential smart home functions can continue even when the broadband connection fails.
Can a Loxone smart home system be expanded or upgraded later?
Future-Proofing Your Loxone Smart Home
Yes. A well-planned Loxone smart home can expand as your needs, property or lifestyle change.
You might begin with lighting, heating or security, then add more features later. These can include automated blinds, CCTV, audio, access control, EV charging or additional rooms.
Extensions and renovations also create useful opportunities to expand the existing system. For example, new cabling can be added while walls and ceilings are already open. However, you do not need to automate the entire property at once.
In Reigate homes, this flexibility can be especially useful during extensions, refurbishments or phased improvements. Good planning at the start also makes future upgrades easier and more cost-effective.
Surrey Smarthome can review your current Loxone system and recommend practical next steps.
Can you work with my architect, builder or electrician during a Reigate renovation?
Coordinating Smart Home Installation with Your Project Team
Yes. Surrey Smarthome can work alongside your architect, builder and electrician throughout a Reigate renovation, extension or new-build project.
Early collaboration helps everyone plan cabling, controls, equipment positions and electrical requirements before walls and ceilings are finished. This can reduce later disruption and avoid unnecessary changes during construction.
We can coordinate lighting, heating, security, audio, networking and other smart home features with the wider building programme. In addition, careful planning helps different systems work together from the outset.
This approach proved valuable on our Hope Lacy project in Reigate. Surrey Smarthome worked with Reigate-based Skin Architects during the property’s major transformation.
Good communication between trades can make installation smoother and improve the finished result. It also creates a stronger foundation for future Loxone upgrades.
Do you provide ongoing support or take over Loxone systems installed by another company?
Ongoing Support for Existing Loxone Smart Homes
Yes. Surrey Smarthome provides ongoing support for Loxone systems, including installations completed by another company.
We can review the existing setup, identify problems and recommend practical improvements. Support may include troubleshooting, programming changes, upgrades and the addition of new smart home features.
This can be especially useful if your original installer is no longer available. Likewise, you may simply want a different company to manage the system going forward.
We can also help expand lighting, heating, security, audio and other automation as your needs change. Existing systems do not always need replacing from scratch.
For Reigate homeowners, this means an older Loxone installation can often be improved, supported and developed over time.
