WHAT YOUR NEIGHBORS ARE SAYING ABOUT US

Eric with Big Family electric was professional and knowledgeable, and able to diagnose an issue with our electrical system with ease! I cannot say enough good about him and this company. They were able to accommodate us by getting someone out the very next day...

Eric was great. He did a thorough job checking out my issue, and while he couldn't find the exact cause, he fixed what we both thought the issue was. As of now, no complaints. They were very fast getting out to me, which was crucial because I work from home.

I had an issue that needed to be addressed promptly and BIG was able to send someone out early the next day. Eric got there early and got straight to work. Gave me my quote and also a quote for a few other things that weren't up to par. I opted for only the work...

Eric and Aubrey did a tremendous job adding Starfish lights to my exterior and trouble shooting my surround sound issues. I would highly recommend them.

My first impression of Big Family Electrical after meeting Eric can only be described as "Awesome". Then I had the pleasure to see Eric's work in real-time because I was on the jobsite. And then Sean came to help which only made my confidence grow more...

Home Automation Dealers We Work With

We partner with the most trusted names in home automation so your system is built on equipment that actually holds up.

Josh AI brings voice control to a whole new level. It is a privacy-focused voice assistant designed specifically for smart homes, letting you control lights, music, thermostats, and more with natural, conversational commands. It also integrates cleanly with the other systems we install.
Lutron is our go-to for lighting control and motorized shades. Their dimmers, keypads, and shading systems are known for rock-solid reliability and a polished look. From a single room to a whole home lighting design, Lutron delivers.

Benefits of Home Automation Technology

Home automation makes everyday life easier in ways you feel right away. Lights turn on when you pull into the driveway, your thermostat adjusts before you get home, and you can check your cameras from anywhere. Instead of managing a dozen separate gadgets, everything works together through one simple system.

There are real savings involved, too. Louisiana summers keep air conditioners running for months, and a smart thermostat that adjusts while you are away can noticeably lower your cooling bills. Automated lighting schedules reduce energy waste, and many homeowners find their systems pay for themselves over time.

Home automation also earns its keep during storm season. If your family evacuates ahead of a hurricane, you can watch your property through your cameras, cut power to sensitive electronics remotely, and get alerts if anything looks wrong. In Baton Rouge, that peace of mind is worth a lot.

Our Home Automation Installation Process

Every project starts with a conversation. We want to know how your family lives, which features matter most, and what your budget looks like. From there, we design a system built around your routines rather than pushing a one-size-fits-all package.

Before installation, we evaluate your WiFi network, since reliable automation depends on strong coverage in every room. Baton Rouge’s humidity and heat can also affect outdoor devices and wireless range, so we plan device placement with our climate in mind. Then our team handles the professional installation, wiring, and configuration so everything works together properly from day one.

Once the system is up and running, we walk you through it. We set up your app, program your schedules and scenes, and answer every question until you feel comfortable. And if you need adjustments down the road, we are just a phone call away.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does home automation installation cost in Baton Rouge?

It depends on the size of your system. A few smart devices cost far less than whole home integration, and we provide upfront pricing before any work begins.

Can you integrate devices I already own?

Often yes. We evaluate your current devices and connect compatible ones to your new system.

Will my smart home work during a power outage?

Most devices need power, but battery backups can keep essentials like cameras and locks running during brief outages.

Do older Baton Rouge homes need new wiring for automation?

Sometimes. Smart switches require a neutral wire that some older homes lack, and we handle any necessary upgrades.

Is home automation hard to use?

Not at all. We set up simple controls and train you on the system, and most homeowners feel comfortable within a week.
