Modern smart home tech that respects
what makes Marietta homes special.

Lutron Caseta Smart Lighting
No neutral wire required. The only major smart lighting system built for older homes. Works with your existing wiring, installs in the same boxes as your current switches, and is controlled by app or voice.
Smart Thermostat
Ecobee or Nest thermostat replacing your existing unit. Remote control, scheduling, and energy reporting. Works with any forced air, heat pump, or boiler system common in Lancaster County river-valley homes.
Sonos Whole-Home Audio
We wire ceiling speakers where accessible and use wireless Sonos units where walls are plaster or brick. Multi-room audio you control from your phone — sounds incredible in rooms with character and height.
Smart Door Locks
Schlage Encode or Yale smart locks on front and back doors. Unique PIN codes per person, remote lock/unlock from your phone, and access logs. No keys to lose or copy.
Exterior Security Cameras
Local NVR cameras covering driveways, rear alleys, and entrances — no monthly fee. Footage stored on-site, viewable from your phone. We run conduit cleanly on historic exteriors.
WiFi Mesh System
Plaster walls and brick absorb WiFi signals. We install a professional mesh WiFi system with access points positioned to eliminate dead zones in thick-walled historic homes.

River-town character. Old-house wiring.

Marietta Borough has some of the oldest and most architecturally interesting homes in Lancaster County. Brick Federals, Victorian Italianates, early 20th century craftsman bungalows — all of them were built well before smart switches existed.

The biggest obstacle in these homes is the lack of neutral wire in switch boxes. Most smart switches require it. We spec Lutron Caseta — the only major smart lighting brand engineered from day one to operate without a neutral — so homeowners don’t have to rewire anything.

Plaster walls also affect WiFi and audio installs. We plan around them, using wireless systems where wall fishing isn’t practical, and we don’t damage what makes the house worth living in.

What Marietta homeowners ask us.

Can you install smart lighting in a Marietta historic home without neutral wires?
Yes. This is one of the most common situations we encounter in Marietta. Homes built before the 1980s often have no neutral wire in the switch box — a requirement for most smart switches. We spec Lutron Caseta, specifically engineered to work without a neutral wire. It’s the most reliable no-neutral smart lighting system available and looks excellent in period homes.
How far is Marietta from your base in Lancaster?
About 12–15 minutes west via PA-441 or US-30. Marietta is well within our standard service area. We serve Marietta Borough, East Donegal Township, and the surrounding Susquehanna River corridor.
Can you work around old plaster walls in a historic Marietta home?
Yes. For wireless systems like Lutron Caseta and Sonos, we typically don’t need to run new wiring through walls at all. For camera installs that require wiring, we plan routes carefully to minimize any plaster work, and we patch cleanly when done.
Can you install Sonos audio in a Victorian-era home?
Absolutely. Sonos works very well in older homes because the wireless architecture means we’re not fishing speaker wire through thick plaster. We use ceiling-mounted speakers where attic access exists, surface-mounted where needed, and freestanding Sonos units in rooms where wall work isn’t practical.
Do you install exterior security cameras in Marietta?
Yes. We install local NVR camera systems covering driveways, rear alleys, and entrances with no monthly subscription. Footage is stored on-site and viewable from your phone. We run conduit cleanly on historic exteriors and match it to your home’s exterior color where possible.
