Who we are
The company is run by Shawn, who came to residential technology from a career running operations for regulated technical facilities, the kind of work where things have to be documented, labeled and working at 2 a.m. That habit carried over. Our racks are labeled, our drawings match what is in the walls, and every system is on remote monitoring.
Winnie Waterfront LLC also owns and operates a lakefront property in Alton Bay, New Hampshire, which is where the name comes from and why we understand lake houses from the owner's side as well as the installer's. The lower level of that house, rebuilt from the studs with a Dolby Atmos theater, bar, five audio zones, RadioRA 3 lighting and RTI control, is the project we most often use to show clients what is possible.
Credentials
- RTI Certified. Trained and authorized to design and program RTI control systems, including the current Integration Designer software.
- Lutron RadioRA 3 and RA2. Lighting control has been our specialty since the beginning, with training on both current and previous-generation systems.
- Authorized dealer through Snap One, ADI Global and AVPro Global for every brand on our Brands page, which means dealer pricing, dealer firmware and manufacturer support behind our warranty.
- Licensed and insured for low-voltage work in Massachusetts and New Hampshire, working alongside licensed electricians for all line-voltage work.
How we work
Most projects reach us through builders, electricians and interior designers, and we behave like a trade partner: drawings before rough-in, one inspection rather than two, photographs of every wall before it closes, and no surprises on the invoice. Homeowners who call directly get the same process, starting with a walkthrough and a written scope with a fixed price.
We deliberately keep the client list short. That means we can take the call when the theater will not turn on an hour before the Super Bowl, and it means your house is not one of forty that a technician you have never met is trying to remember.
Where we work
Greater Boston from our base in Somerville, Massachusetts, and the Lake Winnipesaukee region of New Hampshire from Alton Bay. Our sister company, Winnie Waterfront Living, handles interior and exterior design for many of the same houses.
