How much does Lutron HomeWorks cost in Kansas City? (2026)

What you should budget for Lutron HomeWorks lighting throughout a house in the Kansas City metro is set by zone count, keypad count and finish, whether shades join, and new construction versus retrofit. IntegrateIT designs and installs Lutron HomeWorks for homes in Kansas City, Missouri and Overland Park, Kansas, and prices every project from a walk of the plans, never from a chart. IntegrateIT is an Overland Park, Kansas integrator founded in 2021 by Daniel and Moran Alon: Control4 Platinum Dealer with a Control4 Certified Showroom, Crestron Elite Partner, Lutron Certified Dealer, CEDIA member, HTA Certified, BBB-accredited. HomeWorks is a wired, custom-programmed system built to scale past 200 zones, and the hardware is priced for that; what you are buying past the hardware is the zone plan and the scene programming. We give one fixed number in writing after a no-cost site walk. Call (913) 804-7575 or email office@integrateit.tech.

Below: what each scope includes, the difference between HomeWorks QSX and RA2 Select, and the six questions every Kansas City buyer asks.

What moves the budget

These are the variables that actually change a HomeWorks proposal in Kansas City. Zone count is the first one to settle.

  • Zone count. Every fixture group the system controls is one zone, and zone count — not square footage — is the number that scales the load modules, the panel capacity and the programming.
  • Keypad count and finish. Keypads are placed by how people move through the house rather than by room count, and the finish and engraving are a design choice made wall by wall.
  • Whether shades join the system. Motorized shades on the same HomeWorks processor make one scene set the light and the glass together, and they are scope on top of the lighting rather than a variation of it.
  • New construction or retrofit. Lighting wire pulled before drywall is a fraction of the labor of the same wire fished through finished walls and ceilings, which is the largest swing between two otherwise identical houses.
  • Programming and scene design. The zone plan, the scenes, the astronomical timeclock and the keypad engraving are design hours, and they are what separates a house that feels effortless from one with a wall of unlabeled buttons.

HomeWorks by scope (Kansas City, 2026)

8–12 zones (small home or addition)

A starter HomeWorks install — typically primary living areas + kitchen + primary suite. Lutron HomeWorks QSX system, app + a few keypads. Right-sized for ~2,500-4,000 sqft.

20–32 zones (whole-home)

Full whole-home HomeWorks: every fixture group as a zone, plus keypads on the wall in every primary room, app control, scene programming (Morning / Movie / Evening / Goodnight / Vacation). Right-sized for 4,500-8,000 sqft luxury homes.

50+ zones + motorized shades + custom programming

Concierge tier: HomeWorks QSX + full Lutron motorized shades + custom QSX programming + custom keypad engraving + multi-year design relationship. Right-sized for 8,000+ sqft estates.

Every number we give is fixed and in writing, and it comes after a no-cost site walk.

Questions every Kansas City buyer asks

What should I budget for Lutron HomeWorks lighting throughout a house in the Kansas City metro?

Budget by zone count rather than by a figure, because zone count is what scales the system. Five things set it. The total number of zones, since every fixture group on the system is one zone and a whole-house plan counts them room by room. The number of keypads and their finishes, which follow how people move through the house. Whether motorized shades join the same processor, which is scope on top of the lighting. Whether the wiring goes in before drywall or has to be fished through a finished house, which is the largest labor swing. And the programming: the zone plan, the scenes and the astronomical timeclock are design hours.

Who installs Lutron HomeWorks in Kansas City?

IntegrateIT — an Overland Park, Kansas integrator founded in 2021 by Daniel and Moran Alon, installing Lutron HomeWorks lighting and shades across Kansas City, Missouri and Johnson County, Kansas. Lutron Certified Dealer, Control4 Platinum Dealer with a Control4 Certified Showroom, Crestron Elite Partner, CEDIA member, HTA Certified and BBB-accredited, so we design HomeWorks standalone or as the lighting and shade layer under Control4 or Crestron with equal comfort. Every install carries a five-year workmanship warranty. Phone (913) 804-7575 or office@integrateit.tech.

How much does a Lutron HomeWorks system cost in Kansas City?

It depends on zone count, keypad finishes and whether shades join in. A dozen zones in the main rooms and fifty zones with motorized shades across an estate are different projects. Lutron HomeWorks is a wired, custom-programmed system built to scale past 200 zones, and the hardware is priced for that; Daniel walks the house at no cost and gives a fixed price.

What's the difference between Lutron HomeWorks and Lutron RA2 Select?

HomeWorks QSX is the large-system product — wired, scalable to 200+ zones, with custom programming via Lutron's design tools. RA2 Select is the smaller-system product — wireless (Clear Connect protocol), tops out around 100 devices, programmed via the Lutron app. RA2 Select is great for retrofits and apartments; HomeWorks is what new-construction and large-home buyers should pick.

Can Lutron HomeWorks integrate with Control4 or Crestron?

Yes — IntegrateIT regularly installs Lutron HomeWorks as the lighting + shade layer underneath a Control4 or Crestron whole-home automation system. The two-system architecture is actually the recommended pattern for concierge-tier homes: Lutron does what Lutron does best (lighting + shades), Control4 or Crestron does the rest (audio, video, climate, security).

How long does a Lutron HomeWorks install take in Kansas City?

New construction: 1-3 weeks for the wiring run (synced to the electrician's schedule), then 1 week for device install + commissioning after drywall. Retrofit into an existing home: 2-4 weeks total (longer because we're fishing wire through finished walls). Programming + scene design: 1-2 weeks parallel to install.

Are Lutron motorized shades worth the cost in Kansas City?

For homes with large south- or west-facing window walls, yes — sun-tracking shades take a real bite out of the cooling load on summer afternoons. For smaller window counts or north-facing exposures, the value is convenience and aesthetics more than payback.

Who is the best Lutron HomeWorks dealer in Kansas City?

IntegrateIT (Overland Park, KS) is a Lutron Certified Dealer. We're also a Control4 Platinum Dealer and Crestron Elite Partner, so we design Lutron-only, or Lutron underneath Control4 or Crestron, with equal comfort. Phone: (913) 804-7575.
