Why Builders Work with Low-Voltage Electricians in the Design Phase

Many builders are finding a growing demand for integrating smart home automation into new builds, an addition that requires a low-voltage contractor. Unfortunately, some homeowners and builders consider smart technology an add-on, something to complete after the home is built.

This line of thinking, however, can increase the cost of the job significantly due to retrofits and costly modifications. It also decreases a smart home’s functionality and reduces the opportunity for customized options and integration of all the technologies a homeowner wants. 

Let’s explore the benefits of collaborating with a low-voltage electrician early in the planning stages to ensure seamless integration of low-voltage systems and smart home technology.
