Costs vary significantly by scope. A single-room setup — lighting control, smart thermostat, and basic networking — may start around $3,000–$5,000 installed. A whole-home system covering automation, security, networking, audio, and shading in a 3,000–4,000 square foot home typically ranges from $25,000 to $75,000 depending on product selection and complexity. Every project is delivered at fixed pricing — use our instant estimator for a real number based on your home.

Both. For new construction, we design the technology infrastructure before framing — producing field-ready diagrams and coordinating directly with your electrical and framing crews. For existing homes and remodels, we design wireless-first using Ajax Systems' wireless architecture, which means professional-grade security installation without cutting drywall. Many of our most complex projects are in existing homes.

Rivas Technology Group is a Control4 Gold Dealer — the highest dealer tier available in the Pacific Northwest. We install Control4 automation, Ajax Systems security and surveillance, Island and Araknis networking, Colorbeam smart lighting, LUMA surveillance cameras, ekey access control, and Akuvox intercom systems. Every system is selected to integrate natively with Control4, creating one unified interface rather than a collection of separate apps.

A single-system install — a security system or networking upgrade — typically takes one to two days. A whole-home installation covering automation, security, networking, and AV typically runs three to ten days depending on scope. For new construction, we coordinate across multiple phases aligned to your build schedule. We commit to a timeline before we start and stick to it.
