Smart Homes Without the Headaches.
A construction-ready smart home process that protects your schedule, your budget, and your reputation. We work with your trades — you get the credit.
Grizzly Tec partners with Houston-area home builders to integrate LOXONE smart home technology into new construction. Our Smart Blueprint process provides construction-ready documentation, wiring plans, and milestone QC — fitting into your existing build schedule with your existing trades. No extra subs. No callbacks. Predictable cost.
price premium on homes with professional smart home automation in Houston
less cost to pre-wire during construction vs. retrofitting after completion
homeowner support eliminates post-close smart home callbacks
Your Buyers Want Smart Homes. You Don't Want Another Sub to Manage.
Change orders and scope creep
Smart home adds are unpredictable. Costs spiral. Timelines slip.
One more trade to coordinate
You already have 20+ subs. Adding a tech crew to the schedule is a headache.
Post-close callbacks
Homeowner calls YOU when the smart home acts up. That's not your job.
Smart Blueprint eliminates all three. We've turned smart home integration from an ad-hoc upgrade into a predictable, documented process with clear accountability.
A Repeatable Process That Fits Your Build Schedule
Designed to work WITH your existing trades. Your electrician, your low-voltage crew — our plans, our QC, our support.
Defined scope + milestone QC prevents rough-in mistakes and late-stage rework.
Clear documentation and device schedules reduce ambiguity and change orders.
Homeowner issues route to Grizzly Tec, not you. Year-1 support option available.

We Don't Need to Be On Site Every Day
We can support your builds remotely — design, documentation, and QC via video calls and photo verification. Your electrician follows our wiring plan, sends photos at checkpoints, and we verify remotely.
Commissioning and programming can be done remotely for most systems. On-site visits only when needed (e.g., pre-wire walk, final commissioning). That means we can support builders across Texas, not just Houston.
Stop Getting Calls About the Smart Home
Year-1 homeowner support: The homeowner contacts Grizzly Tec for all smart home, AV, and network issues — not you. We also provide a closeout package for every home: quick-start guide, system map, warranty info, support contact, and escalation rules.
Your buyer's experience improves. Your callback list shrinks.

Pre-wiring during construction typically adds $3,000–$8,000 to the build cost depending on home size and scope. This is 60–70% less than retrofitting the same wiring after the home is complete. We provide exact wiring costs after reviewing your plans.
Yes. Homes with professional smart home automation in the Houston market typically command a 3–5% price premium. For a $500K home, that's $15K–$25K in additional value — well above the cost of the smart home system. Buyers in The Woodlands, Cypress, and Memorial increasingly expect smart home technology.
Not necessarily. With our Smart Blueprint + Your Trades option, your existing electrician runs the wire to our spec. We provide the wiring plan, device schedule, and QC checkpoints. We only need to be on-site for pre-wire walks and commissioning. For full turnkey, we handle everything.
We're based in Spring, TX and actively partner with builders across the Houston metro — The Woodlands, Cypress, Katy, Sugar Land, Conroe, and beyond. We also support remote builds across Texas with design, documentation, and video-call QC.
Yes. Once we design the smart home package for one floor plan, we can replicate it across your community with consistent documentation and pricing. Production builders get repeatable installs with our Plug-and-Play Panels option.
Every home includes a closeout package with a quick-start guide, system map, and support contact info. We offer optional Year-1 homeowner support where the buyer contacts Grizzly Tec directly for all smart home issues — keeping callbacks off your plate.
