What sets us apart on Crestron
- In-house programmer. Many dealers subcontract Crestron programming to out-of-town shops. We program in-house — Crestron Home for turnkey projects, Crestron Studio and SIMPL Windows for custom. Faster turnaround, cleaner break-fix, no programmer hand-off when something needs adjustment.
- Multi-platform authorization. Crestron Elite Partner, Platinum Control4 dealer, Lutron Certified Installer. We design single-stack (Crestron only) or two-stack (Crestron with Lutron HomeWorks for lighting and shades) based on what your project needs.
- Service for orphaned systems. We take on Crestron service contracts for systems installed by dealers who left the trade. 2-day on-site audit and ownership transfer of the programming files, then ongoing programming, firmware and break-fix coverage.
- Fixed-price proposals. Custom Crestron projects with bespoke SIMPL programming are easy to under-estimate. We quote the programming hours up-front with a change-order protocol so you know what you’re committing to.
Common questions
What does it mean to be a Crestron Elite Partner?
Crestron is a gatekept channel — unlike Control4 (which has a broad dealer network), Crestron will only sell to dealers who pass their training certification, maintain a service-quality scorecard, and commit to in-house programming capability. Crestron-authorized dealers are the path to genuine Crestron equipment and service, and Elite Partner is the top tier of that program. Buying Crestron gear off Amazon or a discount integrator means no firmware updates, no factory support, no warranty.
How is Crestron different from Control4 in a Kansas City home?
Control4 is the right answer for most luxury homes — turnkey, easy to use, broad ecosystem. Crestron is the right answer when the project wants bespoke programming and deeper integration with commercial-grade subsystems (HVAC zones, motorized everything, shading scenarios, surveillance recorders). Crestron Home (the newer "out-of-the-box" Crestron tier) sits between the two — easier to deploy than custom Crestron, more programmable than Control4. We sell and program all three and recommend the right one for your project.
Do you have an in-house Crestron programmer?
Yes — Daniel does the design and programming on every Crestron project: Crestron Home for turnkey projects, Crestron Studio, SIMPL Windows and SIMPL+ for custom work. Large Crestron deployments call for in-house programmer ownership; we have it.
How much does a Crestron install cost in Kansas City?
It depends on how deep the programming goes, how many subsystems join, and how many touch panels and keypads the house needs. Crestron Home and custom Crestron are different projects; we tell you which fits at a no-cost site walk and give a fixed price. The cost difference versus Control4 is the programming hours.
Do you maintain Crestron systems installed by other dealers?
Yes — we take on Crestron service contracts for systems installed by dealers who left the trade or went out of business. We require the original programming files (Crestron stores them; the dealer can transfer ownership to us) and a paid 2-day on-site audit to map the existing system. After that, we cover ongoing programming changes, firmware updates, and break-fix service. Programming is billed hourly at a rate quoted before any work starts, plus travel and parts.
