Total Control Home Automation
Company Overview
Home automation is as easy as installing a 3-way switch to dim lights from both ends of the hallway. It enables remote and automatic lighting control. Know your garage door status from anywhere and close it with a visual check. Set multiple lights to a specific scene with a single press. Control your thermostats directly from your smartphone. Receive notifications for events. In summary, we manage anything wired from anywhere with an internet connection.
No need for new wiring, no subscription costs, all controllable from your smartphone!
We hold certifications as NEST PRO, RING PRO, and collaborate with SmartHome and others. Nest provides great energy-efficient options, smart thermostats, indoor and outdoor cameras, plus smoke and CO alarms.

Thank you for choosing us, I appreciate your options.
Be sure to check our ""not recommended"" reviews at the bottom; they are all legitimate.
We operate under the name Total Control Home Automation. Yelp may occasionally change the name.
Yelp may also remove my website link. Check out our website at www.TotalControlHomeAutomation.com. Ballard Electric is a distinct company, and we often partner up. You can find my page on Ballard's site; just go to ""Ballard-Electric.com"" and tap [Home Automation].
You might have seen us at the Westlake Home Show at the Hyatt (we're not currently exhibiting). Free tickets are often available on the website.
I wanted to add a few pendant lights in the kitchen, but there was no way to run a wire from the lights to the wall switch without damaging the wall. Recalling X-10 from about 30 years ago (and knowing it had room for improvement), I searched for a remote switch solution. Crestron, Lutron, and RadioRA come with high price tags. Some systems require rewiring - exactly what I was trying to avoid.
In short, I discovered the right product, at the right price, with the right performance. I’ll explain everything and provide a free demo at your home. More features, reduced costs, and straightforward installation - what else could you desire? Oh, and don’t forget to call for a demo!
Emerging from a background in computer programming and automation, this business has developed to support you in obtaining what you want and crafting a truly smart home. Addressing challenges is satisfying, and it’s even more rewarding to enable others to enjoy the perks of technology, frequently without them being aware of the possibilities.
One of my favorite installations was for a quadriplegic client. This client cannot even push a button on a phone or move a mouse. My approach included Insteon, Amazon Echo, and some tailored technology. Now, he can operate his lights, fan, thermostat, TV, audio system, and even adjust sections of his hospital bed!
What can I do to make your life better? And of course, all without rewiring or plaster dust.

Recommended Customer Reviews

Total Control Home Automation gets 5 stars! Andrew went above and beyond expectations. He was also a super nice guy. I asked him to do a ""5 minute"" job. Please just connect my new Blink doorbell. Unfortunately my old equipment in my closet that makes the ring was completely broken. I figured he would leave to buy one and come back, who knows when! He was like McGyver!! He remade the old equipment and I have a nice new video doorbell installed. No extra charge for making everything work in my old house.

Perfect visit.
Courteous service, knowledgeable and generous with information, most pleasant demeanor. Fair pricing and top notch work.
Will call again

What a delight to work with someone that is so professional and honest. Andrew does beautiful work. He is extremely trustworthy. I highly recommend this company. You won't be disappointed.

Andrew is great!!! I had a Ring camera on my garage, but it didnt have enough signal to continue to work , so I bouth eero mesh to extned the signal. I found Andre while looking for someone to hook it up. He said he would come and take a look and maybe we do extend the signal with a lower priced product and for a lot less money. After checking on everything, he decided to move my router so it wouldnt have to go thru as many walls. After using longer cables and moving the router across the room, all we had to do was press the reset button on the top of the camera, and after 2 months of it not working, it came back online immediately. Andrew is very knowledgeable and personable! He saved me a lot of money since now I can return the eero to Amazon! I am going to discontinue my Total Tech account with Best Buy Geek Squad and call Andre for all future computer needs. By way, his prices are also Very reasonable! You can't do better anywhre else!!!

I had an outlet outside without a cover and Andrew not only replaced it with a multi-use cover, but he realized that there was no electricity going to it. Andrew was able to find the GFI outlet in the garage BEHIND boxes and my storage shelving. He was nice and patient and I HIGHLY recommend utilizing Andrew and TCHA if you want to get something done right.

Andrew is the best! He helped set up our two Nest learning thermostats. And he saved me untold time and money by answering in about 30 seconds a problem I was having with our forced air unit furnace when I had crossed 2 wires and blown a fuse on the control unit itself. I will definitely opt for hiring Andrew instead of trying do DIY my next smart-home project.

Andrew and TCHA went above and beyond to help me set up an old surround sound system in my new home. I spent months trying to find someone to assist me with this project. He was the literally the only person who took the time to diagnose the problem and formulate a plan to get the job done the right way with no hassle. Andrew is very communicative, easy to reach, and really went out of his way to bring better sound and clarity to our home. i will be reaching out to him in the future for additional work in our home.

After 3 other attempts to fix the deck lights Andrew was able to fix the problem and then give additional advice on improvements for longevity. Would recommend!

Found Andrew on Yelp and liked what I read. I am a stickler on having a clean result and Andrew was the answer. He seemed well versed in tech side of things related to my brands and internet choices which was great since I'm not. I would recommend Andrew for all your video / audio needs.

Very professional, informative and overall great experience. I highly recommend this company for home security needs. I did not know much about home cameras, security etc and Andrew helped by providing the information I needed to make the best choice for my family.
