The UK’s professional smart home market has reached an estimated value of £3.1bn, marking a 7% increase from 2023, according to the latest Professional Smart Home Market Analysis from the industry association. Produced in partnership with Ancrage Consulting LLC, the report combines verified sales input from manufacturers and distributors with data from residential integrators and quoting platforms WeQuote and Specifi.
Growth in the sector is being led by strong consumer demand for home cinema, lighting and shading, and networking solutions. Meanwhile, interest in security systems and outdoor AV has seen a relative decline. The report also notes increased momentum in the luxury and uber-luxury segments, with 30% of respondents now focused on high-end clientele.
Service agreements are becoming a standard part of business models, with 80% of integrators offering them. Looking ahead, optimism remains high – half of all surveyed companies plan to recruit additional technical staff in the next year.
Matt Nimmons, EMEA Managing Director, said: “The report doesn’t just reflect the state of the market, it helps shape its future,” highlighting how the analysis gives members a clearer view of both opportunities and challenges.
