Smart home
not working
right?

Fear 1
"It's going to cost a fortune." Your wiring, speakers, and infrastructure are almost certainly fine. We upgrade the control layer — at a fraction of replacement cost.
Fear 2
"It'll disrupt my home for months." Most upgrades complete in three phases. No drywall. No demolition. We work around your schedule — and around custom parts lead times when needed.
Fear 3
"I'll have to learn a whole new system." We design for simplicity. One app. Intuitive scenes. Our clients call it "obvious."

What homeowners tell us

Three things holding
you back — addressed.

Every homeowner with a legacy system says one of these three things. Here's the honest answer to each.

01

"This is going to cost a fortune."

Most homeowners assume a broken Crestron or Control4 system means a full rip-out — six figures, starting from zero. That assumption keeps them living with a system that doesn't work.

The reality
In most cases, your wiring, speakers, and infrastructure are perfectly good. We add a modern control layer on top. Upgrades typically run a fraction of full replacement cost.
02

"It'll take months and disrupt everything."

The word "contractor" means tarps, noise, dust, and a crew in your home for weeks. That's not what we do. We are system designers — our process looks more like a consultation than a renovation.

The reality
Most upgrades move through three phases. Standard parts ship in days. When custom Lutron keypads are needed — matched to your finishes — lead times run two to four weeks. We plan around that upfront so there are no surprises.
03

"I'll have to learn a whole new system."

You've already had to learn one system that eventually became frustrating. Starting over — new app, new remotes, new complexity — feels exhausting before it begins.

The reality
We design for simplicity above everything. One app. Intuitive scenes. If it requires a manual, we haven't done our job. Our clients call their new systems "obvious."

Real upgrade example

From frozen Crestron to
fully integrated — three phases.

A 9,400 sq ft estate at The Crosby. Crestron system installed 2011. Touchpanels stopped responding, app deprecated, lighting scenes non-functional. The homeowner had been quoted $85,000 for full replacement.

Before
Crestron app deprecated
Touchpanels non-responsive
Lighting scenes failed
Quoted $85K replacement
After
RTI app — all rooms
All keypads retained

The Crosby · 9,400 sq ft estate

We integrated what they owned.
We replaced what needed replacing.

The existing Crestron processor was still functional — the problem was the control layer, not the infrastructure. We retained all 22 speakers, the structured wiring, and the Lutron Homeworks dimmers. A modern RTI control system replaced only the software and touchpanels.

The three phases
1
Assessment & Design Full system audit, infrastructure test, written upgrade plan — completed in one visit. You know exactly what's needed and what it costs before we leave.
2
Parts & Integration Standard components ship in days. Custom Lutron keypads matched to your finishes — bronze, nickel, stone — require manufacturer lead times of two to four weeks. We order immediately after approval so there's no waiting on your end. Custom Lutron keypads: 2–4 week lead time. We manage this entirely.
3
Commissioning & Handoff Full system programming, personalized walkthrough, mobile app configured. Thirty days of priority support included.

"We love our system so much that when it was time to upgrade, we enjoyed how quickly you were able to do it — and it cost less than the original equipment."

From our clients

What RSF homeowners say
after the upgrade.

"There was no drywall repair that other companies said was necessary. I don't know how you did it, but we couldn't be happier. Can't wait for the backyard so you can do the outdoor speakers."

B
B. Sloan
Fairbanks Ranch

"This is the third time we've used your company in three homes. Whenever our designer came up with an idea, you created the perfect theme — and the system is so simple to control."

D
D. Wald
Newport Beach

"It has been one disappointment after another with AV companies — until my daughter used RSF Audio Video. Your team seamlessly worked with my electricians and interior designer. Excellent craftsmanship."
