Designed for Castle Rock new builds and retrofits
Castle Rock is one of the fastest-growing markets in Colorado, and we work both ends of it — pre-wiring new builds in The Meadows, Cobblestone Ranch, Crystal Valley, and Sapphire Pointe during framing, and retrofitting existing homes in Founders Village, Castlewood Ranch, and Castle Pines Village without tearing up drywall. The right approach depends on where you are in the construction timeline.
Every project starts with a free in-home or pre-construction walkthrough. We map out lighting scenes, audio zones, video sources, network coverage, security cameras, and climate zones, then deliver a fixed-scope design before any work begins.
What a Castle Rock smart home includes
A complete Castle Rock install typically covers whole-home lighting control (Lutron RA3 or HomeWorks), motorized shades on south- and west-facing windows for Colorado's intense sun, multi-room audio (Sonos, Sonance, or Crestron), video distribution to every TV, enterprise-grade WiFi (Ruckus or Araknis access points sized for 4,000–10,000 sq ft homes), 4K security cameras, climate integration, and a Control4 or Crestron processor tying it all together.
One app. One remote. One scene that says "Goodnight" — lights off, shades down, doors locked, alarm armed, thermostat set back. That's the standard we deliver in every Castle Rock home.
Pair it with a dedicated theater
Most Castle Rock smart home projects we do include a dedicated theater or media room as part of the same scope. See our Castle Rock home theater installation page for the full theater scope, or browse all Apex AV services.
Castle Rock client reviews
"Apex pre-wired our new Meadows home during framing and integrated everything — lights, shades, audio, security — into one Control4 app. Worth every penny."
"Full Crestron retrofit on our Castle Pines Village estate. They worked around our existing finishes and the install was completely invisible."
"Lutron RA3 lighting and Sonos audio across our Cobblestone Ranch home. Clean install, zero drywall damage, and the app is so much easier than what we had before."
Castle Rock smart home installation FAQs
How much does a Castle Rock smart home installation cost?
Most Castle Rock smart home projects land between $25,000 and $150,000 depending on home size and scope. A whole-home Control4 or Lutron retrofit on a 4,000 sq ft Meadows home typically runs $35K–$60K. A new-build pre-wire and full Crestron integration on a Castle Pines Village estate runs $100K+. Every project is fixed-bid before any work starts.
Should I pre-wire during new construction in Castle Rock?
Absolutely — pre-wiring during framing in The Meadows, Cobblestone Ranch, Crystal Valley, or any new build is the single biggest cost-saver. We run Cat6A, fiber, speaker wire, conduit, and structured cabling before drywall closes up the walls. The marginal cost during framing is a fraction of what a retrofit costs later.
Can you retrofit my existing Castle Rock home without tearing up walls?
Yes. We've retrofitted hundreds of homes in The Meadows, Founders Village, Castlewood Ranch, and Sapphire Pointe with no drywall damage. Modern wireless platforms (Lutron Caséta, RA3, Control4 wireless) plus careful fishing of low-voltage cable through existing chases means most retrofits finish with zero patching.
Which control platform do you recommend for Castle Rock homes?
It depends on scope. For lighting-only or smaller homes we lean Lutron RA3. For full whole-home integration (lighting, shades, audio, video, climate, security) we usually spec Control4 — strong dealer network in Colorado, excellent reliability, and a great app. For ultra-high-end Castle Pines Village estates we often go Crestron or Savant. We'll recommend the right platform during the free consultation.
Do you handle Castle Pines Village HOA approvals?
Yes. We're familiar with the Castle Pines Village Homes Association architectural review process and submit drawings and equipment specs on your behalf. Same for The Meadows Master Association.
