EXPERIENCE WITH PROJECTS OF DIFFERENT SCOPES

Every home is unique, and what you want for your automation system is also unique. Furthermore, designing automation for a residential space is different from doing the same thing in a commercial environment or a multi-unit development. You want a solution that’s crafted for your home and your needs.

Accordingly, it’s wise to seek out a company that has experience designing systems of all shapes and sizes. We’ve worked with homeowners, businesses and schools throughout Texas, from San Antonio and Austin to Houston and Dallas. Our extensive experience with both residential and commercial systems gives us an edge over other smart home companies.

BE PREPARED

As the old saying goes, the devil is in the details when it comes to smart home technology. Small distinctions between different brands or devices, or where and how those devices are placed, make all the difference when it comes to creating your smart home.

What this means for you is that you want an integrator who isn’t afraid to ask questions from start to finish on your project. At the front end, you need to make sure they fully understand your needs and what your end goal is. When we begin a home automation installation, we take time to go through an extensive discovery phase. This ensures our team is in synch with you as the project moves forward.

CLEAR COMMUNICATION

As is the case in any relationship, communication is critical. You’re entrusting your integrator with considerable resources, not to mention any changes they might make to your home. You should be kept informed at every step of the project.

Customer service is one of our top priorities at ASAP Security Services. We’ll make sure to keep you in the loop at every step, and if we’re not sure about something, we’ll make sure to get an answer from you before we advance. Our commitment to customer service doesn’t stop there, however; we’re available for any service needs you might have once the project is complete.

LOCAL KNOWLEDGE

Every project is unique in part because there are different rules and regulations in different areas. Time spent deciphering local guidelines is time that could be spent on design or installation, so hire a company that already knows what those quirks are. Our experience on projects throughout Texas makes us well-equipped to get your project moving as quickly as possible.
