Smart homes in Ashbourne
Ashbourne sits at the gateway to the Peak District, and the work here is almost entirely rural. Large detached houses, converted farm buildings and village properties across DE6 make up what we quote, and they share a set of characteristics that push the specification in a particular direction: off mains gas, generous plots, long approaches and substantial outbuildings.
Being off the gas grid is the defining factor. Oil, LPG and increasingly heat pumps all cost more per unit than mains gas, which means per-room zoning returns more here than it does in town. Not heating unoccupied rooms produces the same percentage saving anywhere — it just converts to more money when the fuel is expensive. Weather compensation on flow temperature matters even more if you're running a heat pump.

One system. Everything.
A single Loxone Miniserver runs every one of these from one app — no separate hubs, no cloud subscriptions, no battery-change reminders. Most Ashbourne customers start with one or two and extend later.
CCTV
Professionally sited IP camera systems across the East Midlands. Recording stays on your property, footage is actually usable at night, and there is no per-camera cloud subscription.
From £1,400 ex-VAT →Energy & EV
Energy monitoring, solar self-consumption, EV charge scheduling and tariff-aware load shifting across the East Midlands. See where it goes, then stop it going there.
From £2,200 ex-VAT →Home cinema
Dedicated cinema rooms, media rooms and garden-room cinemas across the East Midlands. Screen, sound, seating, lighting and blackout designed together — then wired, calibrated and handed over working.
From £6,450 ex-VAT →Network & cabling
Cat6 structured cabling, designed Wi-Fi coverage and tidy comms racks across the East Midlands. The unglamorous layer that decides whether everything else in the house actually works.
From £1,600 ex-VAT →Garden lighting
Exterior lighting design and installation across the East Midlands. Layered, properly dimmed and automated on sunset — so the garden becomes somewhere you actually look at in the evening.
From £2,100 ex-VAT →Blinds & shading
Motorised blinds, curtains and external shading across the East Midlands. Wired where it matters, integrated with lighting and heating, and automated on sun position rather than a clock.
From £1,850 ex-VAT →Multiroom audio
Whole-house audio across the East Midlands. Architectural ceiling and in-wall speakers, proper amplification in a cupboard, and music that follows you room to room without a single visible box.
From £2,600 ex-VAT →Smart lighting
Whole-house lighting control across the East Midlands. Proper dimming, RGBW colour, scenes that suit how the room is used, and daylight tracking — wired in, not plugged in.
From £3,200 ex-VAT →Heating & climate
Per-room temperature control across the East Midlands. Zoned radiators and underfloor heating, presence-based setbacks and weather compensation — so you stop heating empty rooms.
From £2,900 ex-VAT →Security & access
Keyless entry, video doorbells, CCTV and alarm integration running locally on one system. No per-camera cloud fees, no separate app for every device, and it keeps working when the broadband doesn't.

Loxone for Ashbourne homes
Agricultural conversions are a recurring theme and among the best projects we take on. An open shell with accessible routes means the infrastructure costs a fraction of retrofitting the same result into a finished stone building — and finished stone buildings are genuinely difficult. If your conversion is anywhere near first fix, that's the moment to talk, even if you're not ready to commit.
Long driveways and detached plots make access control and camera coverage a more common part of the brief than in our urban areas. Gate automation with intercom to both the house panels and your phone, keyless entry, and local recording with no per-camera cloud fee. Exterior and approach lighting tends to come up in the same conversation.
Broadband across DE6 is variable, and in some villages genuinely poor. This is one of the strongest practical arguments for the way we build: everything runs locally on the Miniserver, so the house does not depend on a connection that may not be there. Remote access is a feature you enable, not a dependency you are stuck with.
Ashbourne is around 45 minutes from our workshop. We batch visits across DE6 where we can, and site visits are free with a fixed written quote inside five working days. Every install is delivered by our own Loxone-trained engineers, never sub-contracted.
Why Loxone, not a hub
Hive, Hue, Sonos and Ring each run on separate apps and separate cloud servers. Loxone runs everything locally on the Miniserver — if your broadband drops, the house keeps working.
What home automation really means →No cloud dependency
Runs entirely locally. Broadband out? Every light, speaker and door lock keeps working.

The Loxone app is free for every household member, permanently. No per-device fees, ever.
Wired reliability
Loxone Tree cable carries power and data together. No Wi-Fi dropouts, no battery reminders.
One app for everything
