"AMAZING! He's earned my trust. Shawn's incredibly knowledgeable, patient & kind. Not to mention easy on the eyes! Nice guy, for sure. It's clear he loves techy stuff & has an easy way of explaining things. I'm honestly shocked his prices aren't much more. His level of expertise coupled with his teaching skills are impressive. Here's what happened; I THOUGHT my computer was broken. I actually made a few lengthy (customer service calls first. I have no idea what button i pushed or didn't push when my computer starting going crazy! It seemed like 20 - 40 new tabs opened up simultaneously... one immediately following the next! I panicked & pushed something. I think i pulled a few cords! The screen turned black, then flashed, now random letters & possibly numbers started typing themselves out! I really don't know, it happened so fast. The moment I saw a blue screen, i unplugged it! I called some customer service #, was on & off hold for literally hours, transferred to this one & that one. The tech.'s were all nice enough although hard to understand. I was in tears! After 2 separate calls & hours on the phone, I gave up. Honestly, I wanted to throw it all out & start over. I was talking to my friend about this nightmare. She told me about "Shawn Moore" of "Shawn's Wholesome Store." She really went on & on about him. I called him right then & there. I was pleasantly surprised how many questions Shawn asked. Usually they don't want to discuss anything until they're on the clock. He has a calming, empathetic confidence about him. Now the big question, is this going to brank the bank? I agreed to an inperson diagnostic test. Shawn arrived early to our appt. dressed in khaki's (not jeans). Our appointment went better than I could have hoped for! He explained a few things then asked if I was interested in having a training session with him. I very much appreciate anyone who asks first instead of charging me for a service that I didn't know I was getting. I thought i needed my computer 🖥 to be replaced. In the end, Shawn was able to recover all of my files, saved my photos & fixed my computer. Since then, I've had 4 different remote sessions with him. "I bought a package of 6 training sessions." I feel more confident everyday to work with my computer & phone. Oh, while he was here, he noticed my cell phone screen was smashed. I thought I had to replace that too. Nope! He fixed that too."

"The Smart Home features they installed, such as thermostat and door locks, etc. do not always work. For example, the Honeywell thermostat can no longer be operated from our phones and is difficult to install. Remote door locks are also unpredictable."

Home Automation questions, answered by experts

Smart irrigation systems are more expensive than traditional sprinkler timers, and their setup can be effort-intensive for some homeowners. For instance, depending on the type of controller you choose, you may need to bury soil moisture sensors or install other equipment on-site that helps your smart sprinkler controller work. However, given their water and cost savings over time, many homeowners still consider a smart controller a worthy investment.

When deciding whether a home automation system is right for you, consider the advantages and disadvantages first.

Pros

  • Home automation can help make your home more energy efficient, possibly lowering utility bills.

  • A wide range of automated solutions is available to meet your needs.

  • Centralized and remote control of different home automation systems.

Cons

  • Home automation can be costly.

  • Not all automated systems are compatible with each other.

  • Over-dependence on home automation can be problematic if systems cannot connect to the cloud.

Yes, most services include necessary hardware like anchors, screws, and wall brackets, though custom shelving may require specific mounting materials.

Home flood detection systems are worth it for the peace of mind they can provide, especially if you live in an old home with poor pipework, own a second home left unoccupied for long periods, or live in a flood-prone area. Some insurers even offer discounts to homeowners with detectors in place, helping to offset the costs.

Yes, most services include installing rods and brackets. Confirm with your provider.
