Get an EstimateSmart Home Installation on Lake Rabun
Lake Rabun is in Rabun County, close to Lakemont and to Lake Burton. The houses we see are second homes and lake houses, used hard on a weekend and empty in between. Smart home installation here follows the same rule we use on Burton: fewer electronics, proven products, and a way to check the house from Atlanta.

Home Theater Installation on Lake Rabun
A dedicated theater or a media room is for the evenings you are actually there, including the rainy ones. We design the room, put the equipment in a dry closet, and leave the controls simple. Humidity and a winter shutdown are the reasons the rack does not live in an unconditioned space by the water. The project is custom quoted, with no published range.

Whole-Home Audio and Outdoor Audio on Lake Rabun
Indoors, Sonos and Sonance in-ceiling speakers. Outdoors, weather-rated speakers for the porch, the dock and a boathouse, in zones. The speakers have to tolerate damp air off the lake and a freeze when the house is closed. One app for the house and the water, not a separate system you only remember in July.

Lutron Lighting Control on Lake Rabun
Caséta for a few rooms, RadioRA 3 when the whole house should share scenes, HomeWorks when the house is large. A scene you can start on the drive in is the one people use. Most dimmers replace the switches you already have. Landscape and path lights can come on with the same arrival idea, so the walk from the car is lit.

Motorized Shades on Lake Rabun
Afternoon sun off the water and a dark room for a movie are the two reasons shades show up on a lake house. They can also close when you leave. We tie them to Lutron when the lighting system is RadioRA 3 or HomeWorks. Wired power is planned before drywall. Battery shades are how a finished house gets them.

Whole-Property Wi-Fi on Lake Rabun
A lake lot is a long property: the house, then the dock, a boathouse, sometimes a guest cabin. Wi-Fi from a single router does not make that trip through trees and out over the water. We use Starlink where cable does not come in, eero or wired access points for the buildings you use, and a point-to-point link when a trench is the wrong tool.
See Lake Rabun Wi-Fi and networking and Wi-Fi. Remote checks are Network Care at $24.99 a month for a home. A simple refresh is two to four hours at $149 an hour plus a $50 trip charge.
Security Cameras and Remote Monitoring on Lake Rabun
Cameras and a doorbell on the doors and the drive, plus flood and freeze sensors, so an empty week does not hide a leak or a power cut. You should get the alert on your phone, not discover it on arrival. We keep the camera count to the spots that change what you would do.
See cameras and security.
TV Installation on Lake Rabun
Hanging a TV and hiding the cable is a service call at $149 an hour plus a $50 trip charge. A typical mount takes one to two hours. A porch TV that has to survive the weather, or a screen that anchors a media room, is part of a larger quote.
