Why Puyallup

Puyallup Homeowners Deserve More Than a Big-Box Install

Puyallup has grown rapidly — and the housing stock reflects it. South Hill's large suburban homes, newer construction in the Canyon Road corridor, established neighborhoods around downtown, and the expanding Eastern Puyallup area all represent homeowners who've invested significantly in their properties. What they haven't had is easy access to professional-grade smart home integration that doesn't require driving to Seattle or settling for a big-box retailer.

Rivas Technology Group is based in Kent — 20 minutes north — and we serve Puyallup as one of our core Pierce County markets. We design and install whole-home Control4 systems, Ajax smart security, enterprise networking, smart lighting, motorized shades, and home theater for Puyallup homeowners who want technology that matches the quality of their homes.

Puyallup's housing profile is varied — from multi-story South Hill homes with complex WiFi coverage requirements, to newer Tehaleh-adjacent construction ideal for pre-wire coordination, to established downtown-area homes that benefit most from wireless-first retrofit design. We account for all of it.

No subcontractors. No templated packages. Every system is designed for the specific home, by the same team that installs and supports it. Learn why Puyallup homeowners are upgrading their security →

From Ivan Rivas — Founder & Sales Engineer
Puyallup has a lot of newer construction and growing neighborhoods where homeowners want modern technology but aren't sure where to start. We make that process straightforward — a site visit, an honest conversation, and a system that's designed for how you actually live.

Why Rivas Technology Group

The Standard Puyallup Homeowners Should Expect

Not all integrators are the same. Here's what makes us the right choice for Puyallup.

01

Control4 Gold — Not Entry-Level

Gold certification means higher training requirements, demonstrated capability on complex multi-zone systems, and manufacturer-level support. South Hill homes with multiple floors and many zones need a Gold dealer — not someone who took a weekend course.

02

South Sound–Local Team

Based in Kent, we're 20 minutes from Puyallup. We know Pierce County's housing stock, permitting, and contractors. No scheduling penalties for distance, no subcontractors on your property — just our own team, on time.

03

Ajax Security — Meaningfully Better

Ajax's encrypted wireless, cellular backup, AI cameras, and tamper detection is a genuine upgrade over every consumer security platform on the market. We're one of the few Ajax-certified dealers in Pierce County.

04

No Subcontractors

Every person working in your home is a full-time Rivas Technology Group employee. The team that designs your system is the team that installs and supports it — no accountability gaps after the job is done.

05

Transparent Pricing

Menu-based pricing published upfront. Every service has a defined scope and a set rate — no surprise invoices, no hardware markups discovered after you've committed. You know the number before we start.

06

30+ Years Combined Experience

Our team brings over 30 years of combined integration experience across residential and commercial, new construction and retrofit. Systems programmed right the first time, built to run reliably for years without constant service calls.

Canyon Road Corridor

Active new construction and development on Puyallup's eastern edge — pre-wire coordination with builders, whole-home Control4 infrastructure, and smart home installations for homeowners building from the ground up.

Downtown Puyallup

Established homes surrounding historic downtown — wireless-first smart home retrofits, security upgrades, and smart lighting installations for older construction where minimal disruption is essential.

Edgewood / East Puyallup

Residential transition area between Puyallup and Auburn — larger lot properties, smart home and networking installations, and security solutions for an area with rapidly growing homeowner expectations.

Residential

Orting / Carbon River

Rural residential south of Puyallup — wireless-first design, Ajax security with cellular backup for areas with limited ISP reliability, and enterprise networking for larger rural properties and acreage homes.

South Hill's commercial corridor anchored by major retail — commercial AV, enterprise security, structured networking, and bar and restaurant AV for Puyallup's growing commercial density.

Common Questions

Smart Home FAQ for Puyallup Homeowners

What smart home systems do you install in Puyallup?

Control4 whole-home automation, Ajax Systems wireless security, smart lighting (Control4, Lutron Caséta, Lutron RA3, PoE), enterprise WiFi and structured networking, motorized shades, home theater and multi-room audio, and Akuvox intercom systems. Every system is designed and installed by our own team — no subcontractors.

Can you fix a smart home system that's not working right?

Yes — we handle smart home service calls throughout Pierce County including Puyallup. Whether it's a Control4 system that's lost programming, a WiFi network with dead zones, AV equipment that won't respond, or security cameras that aren't recording correctly, we diagnose and fix it. Call 425-954-6003 or use our contact form to schedule a service visit.

How does Ajax security compare to what Puyallup alarm companies offer?

Most local alarm companies and consumer platforms use unencrypted wireless signals and depend entirely on your internet connection. Ajax uses military-grade encrypted wireless, cellular backup that works even if your internet is cut, tamper detection on every device, and AI camera integration. It integrates natively with Control4. Read the full Ajax vs. traditional security comparison →

Do you work with Puyallup builders on new construction pre-wire?

Yes — we coordinate directly with builders throughout Pierce County on pre-wire design, structured cabling rough-in, and low-voltage planning for new construction. Involving us at the framing stage is the most cost-effective way to build smart home infrastructure. We work with the construction timeline so there's no impact on your build schedule.

My South Hill home has terrible WiFi coverage — can you fix it?

This is one of our most common Puyallup calls. Multi-story South Hill homes with large square footage, thick walls, and multiple floors frequently overwhelm consumer mesh systems. We design enterprise-grade structured networks with Alta Labs or Ruckus access points and structured Cat6A cabling — eliminating dead zones permanently. Read our guide on mesh vs wired networking →

What does a smart home cost in Puyallup?

A focused smart lighting and automation installation in the main living areas typically starts around $8,000–$12,000. A whole-home system with lighting, security, shades, audio, theater, and networking is typically a mid-to-high five-figure investment. We offer transparent, menu-based pricing — no surprises.
