Handy Controls is run by Brandon Miles, with more than ten years across AV, IT, programming, support, hardware and software — including time as a Loxone Partner Coach supporting the UK partner network. That mix is the point: a building system is only as good as the wiring, the network and the handover behind it.
Most quotes for this kind of work start with a site visit and end with a number you can't take apart. We do it the other way round. Sketch your space in the online tool, see what each decision changes, and get a figure you can question line by line before anyone sets foot on site.
What we do
Design, programming, commissioning and support for homes and commercial buildings.
The aim
Buildings that quietly do the right thing, and owners who understand exactly what they bought.
How we work
Open pricing, documented handover, and a system you can still change in five years.
Where we work
Bristol and the South West for installation work, and remotely across the UK for programming, commissioning support and takeovers of inherited systems.
Who we work with
New homes in England have to meet the Future Homes Standard from 24 March 2027, assessed through the Home Energy Model. Low-carbon heating, better fabric and smarter controls stop being optional extras and become how a home passes.
What changes
Heat pumps and solar in place of gas, tighter fabric standards, and controls that have to prove they work rather than simply being present.
Why controls matter
Zoned heating, shading and ventilation are worth real credit in the assessment, and they keep a well-sealed house comfortable instead of stuffy.
For developers
One specification repeated across plots, commissioned the same way every time, with remote support so a fault doesn't mean a van to site.
A team bringing over 10 years' experience across AV, IT, programming, support, hardware and software — including time spent as a Loxone Partner Coach supporting the UK partner network. Taken on a subcontract basis, working to your specification and under your client relationship.
