// Partnership · For Builders

The smart home partner for Dallas‑Fort Worth builders.

WH Technologies works alongside custom homebuilders and commercial general contractors across Dallas-Fort Worth to design, install and support the technology in the homes and spaces you build. Brought in early, we plan the infrastructure with your team, consult directly with your buyers and take technology off your plate.

// Why builders choose us

One partner for the entire technology scope.

Custom homebuilders and commercial contractors work with us because we simplify a complicated part of the build: design, client consultation, infrastructure, installation and support, handled by one accountable team, on residential and commercial projects alike.

01

Custom solutions, not packages

Your clients expect more than a generic smart-home add-on. Every system is specified around the homeowner's lifestyle and the design of the home, from lighting and shading to audio, networking and security.

02

We consult directly with your buyers

We meet with your clients, understand their priorities and recommend the right systems. Technology questions come to us, not to your site team, and buyers get a single point of contact from planning to handover.

03

Early involvement saves time and money

Engaged at the architectural stage, we coordinate wiring, equipment locations and power with your trades before walls are closed. Fewer change orders, no retrofits and a cleaner schedule.

04

Support continues after closing

Homeowners are trained on their system and backed by a 24/7 support line and membership plans, so technology questions after closing come to us.

// Turnkey process

From blueprint to handover.

A defined scope at every stage of the build, so your project manager always knows what we are doing and when.

01Pre-construction

Design and wiring plan

Technology drawings and a complete low-voltage wiring plan, coordinated with the architectural set before ground is broken.

02Rough-in

Infrastructure before drywall

Cabling for audio, video, data, security and climate control installed and labelled while the walls are open.

03Sales and design

Buyer consultation

We meet your client, understand how they live and put together an integration package built around their lifestyle and budget.

04Trim-out

Installation and programming

Equipment, fixtures and controls installed, configured and tested, ready for the final walkthrough.

05Handover

Homeowner training

A guided walkthrough of every system at closing, backed by self-service training videos.

06After closing

Ongoing support

A 24/7 support line, remote diagnostics and membership plans keep every system running long after the keys are handed over.

New-construction technology has endless combinations. The earlier we join the project, ideally during architectural planning, the more options remain open for your client and the less it costs to build them in.
