Service · Automation

One home. One app. One engineer accountable.

GTA Electric designs and installs home and building automation across the GTA — smart lighting, motorized shades, KNX, Lutron and Control4 systems, access control, integrated AV, and energy monitoring. We program and commission every system so it runs from one reliable interface, not five disconnected apps.

How we work

Designed, wired, programmed, supported.

STEP 01

Discovery

We learn how you actually live or operate, then map the rooms, scenes, and systems that matter.

STEP 02

Design

A fixed system design and platform recommendation — wiring plan, devices, and budget, approved before work starts.

STEP 03

Install & program

Licensed install, then we program every scene and commission the system end to end.

STEP 04

Support

Documentation, a walkthrough, and an ongoing support plan so it keeps working as devices update.

Answers

Automation questions, answered.

Home automation is modular, so cost scales with scope. A single smart-lighting room or a few smart switches may start around $1,500–$3,000, while a whole-home Lutron or Control4 system with lighting, shades, and AV typically runs from $15,000 upward. GTA Electric scopes a fixed design to your priorities and budget.

It depends on the building and goals. Lutron excels at lighting and shades; Control4 is strong for whole-home AV and scenes; KNX is an open, future-proof standard favoured for larger and commercial buildings. We are platform-agnostic and recommend based on your needs, not a single brand.

Yes. Many systems retrofit without major renovation using wireless lighting, smart panels, and existing wiring. For full integration we plan around your walls and finishes. New builds get the cleanest result because we wire for it during construction.

Usually, yes. We consolidate compatible thermostats, locks, cameras, speakers, and lighting into one coherent system and app where the protocols allow it, and we flag anything that is better replaced for reliability.

Yes. We offer commissioning, documentation, and ongoing support plans so your system keeps working as software and devices update. You get one accountable contact, not a finger-pointing chain.
