The rise of home automation technology has raised the bar for what buyers expect from builders, architects and designers. Homeowners simply expect more technology in their houses, and they expect it work seamlessly while not disrupting the home’s aesthetic. So how do you unravel this knot of interconnected building challenges? Room Service Integrated Solutions is here to help, and we’ve put together this guide to improving the home lighting design for your building projects in the Portland, OR region.

You’ve probably heard some version of the old story about how it’s easier to break a group of sticks individually than it is to break them if they’re bound together. There’s a similar truth in the world of home automation: Systems work better when they’re integrated than they do as separate entities.

This is particularly true when it comes to setting up your home theater. To get the most from your home theater automation, you want to be sure that it is linked to the control system for the rest of your home. We’ve put together this blog to show homeowners along the Oregon Coast the benefits of integrating these systems in your house.

The time has come.  You have been reading a lot about smart devices for the home and are thinking that you could benefit from smart home control technology.  And from what you have seen, there are a lot of things to consider. Where do you start?

We’re here to help.  With over two decades of experience in custom integration in the Portland area, we have our share of projects under our belt, from one room home theaters to whole-house entertainment and automation. 

Over the years, we have heard many questions and concerns from our clients, and we want to share with you some of the top things you should be thinking about – and asking us – on your path to making an informed decision about smart home control.

We all have busy lives with many things to do and remember.  The last thing you want to think about as you shuttle your kids to their summer activity or rush out for an early work meeting is little – but important – things you may have forgotten to do at home.

If you’re the person that just might get a little distracted with the crush of daily life and wonder whether something at home is the way it should be, a home automation system can be a big help – and a stress reliever too. 

It’s not just about stress, but security and maintenance too.  Leaving a front door unlocked could invite an unwanted intruder.  While the wet Pacific Northwest seasons mean you don’t have to worry much about sprinklers for your landscape, you do have to turn them on for the drier summer weather. 

Let’s see how a home automation system can make your life a little less stressful in Portland.
