FAQ

Smart home

What services does Unified Integration offer?
We install, configure, and support smart home technology, home theater systems, structured wiring, home networking, and AV equipment across Lancaster County. Home installs are done by our own team, with no subcontractors; for structural rigging such as flying PA, and for extreme or long-distance cable runs, we bring in a licensed partner. We don't leave until everything is fully set up and working.
What areas near Lancaster PA do you serve?
We serve all of Lancaster County including Lancaster City, Lititz, Ephrata, Manheim, Columbia, Elizabethtown, Mount Joy, Millersville, Strasburg, and Bird-in-Hand. We also cover York, Harrisburg, and Lebanon. Not sure if you're in range? See our service areas or contact us — there's no charge for the question.
Do you work on existing homes or only new construction?
Mostly existing homes. We specialize in retrofitting smart home technology into houses that weren't built with it in mind. New construction is welcomed too, but the bulk of our work is upgrading homes that are already lived in.
What brands and smart home platforms do you install?
We install systems on Apple HomeKit, Google Home, Amazon Alexa, and Matter-compatible ecosystems. For devices, we work with brands like Lutron, Sonos, Ring, Nest, Ecobee, and Samsung SmartThings. We recommend Matter-compatible devices where possible since they're designed to stay compatible as technology evolves. See HomeKit vs Google Home vs Alexa.
Can I start with one room and expand later?
Yes, and it's one of the smarter ways to approach it. Many clients start with one room or one system — smart lighting in the living room or a home theater setup — and add more over time. We design installations with future expansion in mind so it's easy to build on what's already there.

WiFi & networks

Do you install whole-home WiFi and wired networks?
Yes. We install mesh WiFi, wired access points and Cat6 network drops for homes, starting with a free WiFi survey. See WiFi installation in Lancaster PA.
Can you get WiFi to a detached garage, barn or outbuilding?
Often, yes. A point-to-point wireless bridge can carry your network to another building where trenching a cable isn’t practical. See wireless bridge and access point installation.

Church AV

Do you install church sound and AV systems?
Yes. We design and install church sound, video, live streaming and Wi-Fi for congregations in Lancaster County, starting with a free walkthrough of your sanctuary. See church sound and AV installation.
Do you fly PA speakers or handle extreme/long cable runs yourselves?
For structural rigging — flying PA or line-array speakers, camera mounts, or other equipment from trusses or ceilings — and extreme or long-distance cable runs, we bring in a licensed third-party rigging or electrical partner as part of the project. We manage the coordination and integration, but that specialized structural or electrical work itself is subcontracted for safety and code compliance.

Business

Do you work with small businesses?
Yes. We install commercial WiFi, conference room AV, displays, security cameras and access control for Lancaster County businesses. See commercial WiFi, AV and cameras.

Quotes & warranty

How much does a smart home installation cost in Lancaster PA?
It depends on scope. A single-room job — smart lighting, a thermostat, a doorbell camera — typically runs $500–$2,000 installed. A full whole-home automation system covering lighting, climate, security, AV, and networking can range from $5,000 to $20,000+. We provide free in-home assessments and transparent quotes — no hidden fees, no surprises. See our smart home cost guide or contact us to schedule yours.
Do you charge for estimates or consultations?
No. In-home assessments and quotes are free with no obligation. We come out, walk through your home, understand what you want, and give you a clear quote. We offer same-day quotes. You decide if you want to move forward — no pressure, no follow-up calls.
Are you licensed and insured, and is there a warranty?
Yes. Unified Integration is licensed and insured, and we back our work with a 90-day labor warranty.
How long does a typical installation take?
Single-room or single-system jobs are usually done in a few hours. A whole-home project covering multiple rooms, systems, and wiring might take one to three days. We'll give you a realistic estimate during your free assessment and keep you updated throughout the job.
Will you leave before everything is working?
No. We don't pack up until the system is fully configured, tested, and you know how to use it. We walk you through everything before we leave. If something isn't right, we fix it on the spot.
What if something stops working after you've installed it?
Call us. If it's a warranty issue or something we installed, we'll take care of it. We'd rather fix it quickly than have you stuck with a system that doesn't work.
