Des Plaines has a diverse housing stock from post-war cottages to 1980s two-stories, often needing updates before sale.
What's different about Des Plaines: Smart home installs in Des Plaines hit one recurring surprise: brick bungalows, Cape Cods and postwar ranches make up most streets, many within blocks of the Des Plaines River, and homes of that era often lack the C-wire most smart thermostats want. For owners and landlords keeping older housing stock in service, the value is a working system connected to their app — not a box of returned gadgets. Smart-device installs have been steady from Cumberland to downtown Des Plaines.

Both — I mount and wire the device, then set up the app, connect it to your WiFi, and test that everything works before I leave. You won't be left figuring out the software.
Yes — I install both hardwired and battery-powered video doorbells. If you have existing doorbell wiring I can use it; if not, a battery model works great.
Smart thermostats run on low-voltage wiring (the same as your old thermostat), so they're within handyman scope. If your system needs a C-wire or has unusual wiring, I'll identify that and advise on the best approach.
All the major ones — Ring, Nest, Google, Ecobee, August, Wyze, Kasa, and more. If you've already bought a device, I can almost certainly install it.
