Once your goals and vision are clearly defined, our team moves into the design and engineering phase. Here, we convert your ideas into a comprehensive, build-ready plan. Every system is designed with precision, tailored to your specific space, usage patterns, and aesthetic considerations. We outline all equipment specifications, model numbers, and labor requirements up front, so you know exactly what to expect. With CAD tools and detailed schematics, our engineering team creates a technical roadmap that guides every step of the project, from wiring and power needs to lighting load groupings, rack configurations, and control layouts.

Great lighting creates atmosphere, enhances design features, and adapts to your lifestyle. With this in mind, our team takes a layered approach to lighting design, considering how each space is used and what kind of environment you want to create. We select the right fixtures for each layer—ambient, task, and accent lighting—and organize them into intuitive control groups. Whether highlighting artwork, brightening countertops, or setting the perfect evening mood, your lighting responds with precision. With the press of a single button, your entire room transforms.

Every reliable technology system starts with clean, consistent power. Our team designs electrical infrastructure that supports both your current load requirements and future technology upgrades. From panel layouts and dedicated circuits to surge protection and backup systems, we ensure your power foundation is safe, scalable, and code-compliant. Whether for a new build or retrofit, we plan every detail with long-term performance in mind, preventing overloads, minimizing interference, and supporting stable operation for all AV, lighting, and smart systems throughout the property.

Following our initial needs analysis, we document everything we've learned, such as your budget range, your priorities, and your performance goals, into a clearly structured project specification. This document breaks down each subsystem by room, giving you an easy-to-read overview of what your home will include. We go beyond general suggestions, detailing which spaces require Wi-Fi coverage, what kind of lighting scenes you want, preferred motorized shading styles, and the ideal audio-video layout for each area. Once we present this proposal, we take your feedback into account and refine the scope as needed, guaranteeing everything reflects your vision before moving into the full design and engineering phase.

Behind every smooth installation is clear, accurate documentation. We provide detailed plans, including CAD drawings and technical schematics, that outline everything from wiring paths and power specs to device locations and rack elevations. These documents serve as a trusted reference for our technicians, trade partners, and project collaborators throughout construction. We also share them with you and any architects, designers, or property managers involved, so everyone stays aligned and informed. This results in a streamlined process, minimal guesswork, and an end product that delivers exactly what you envisioned.

Every smart system starts with the right foundation. At Stellmann Electrical, we handle all low-voltage wiring with precision, carefully integrating fiber and copper infrastructure to support AV, networking, lighting, security, and surveillance technologies. Each wire is selected for its specific function, then routed and labeled for clarity and long-term serviceability. Whether you're building new or upgrading an existing space, our wiring strategy prepares your home or business not just for today’s technology, but for tomorrow’s innovations. We take special care with rack organization as well, making future maintenance and upgrades efficient and straightforward.

With the design fully approved and engineering completed, we move into the build phase. Our technicians begin by installing conduit, low-voltage cabling, and system enclosures, laying the groundwork for clean, reliable performance. We then follow through with the placement and installation of displays, speakers, keypads, and other components, executing every detail according to the plan. Our team holds manufacturer-specific certifications to ensure everything is installed according to exact requirements. The result is a seamless integration of systems that’s intuitive to use and meets your expectations for performance, reliability, and longevity.
