Question 1

What's the address and how do you access the property?

Accepted Answer

Have the full street address ready and any access notes — gate codes, intercom, parking instructions, or whether someone needs to let the pro in.

Question 2

When did the issue start, and what have you already tried?

Accepted Answer

A short timeline + any DIY fixes you've attempted helps the pro diagnose faster and avoid duplicating work.

Question 3

Can you send a photo or short video?

Accepted Answer

Most pros ask for one before quoting. A clear photo of the problem area saves a callout fee for an estimate visit.

Question 4

What's your rough budget and timeline?

Accepted Answer

Knowing your ballpark and how soon you need the work done helps the pro tell you upfront whether they're the right fit.

Question 5

Will you be on site, or someone else?

Accepted Answer

Tell the pro who'll meet them, their phone number, and whether they can authorise additional work if something unexpected comes up.

Question 8

Wat is een Z-Wave?

Accepted Answer

A low-power wireless communication protocol designed specifically for smart home devices. Operating on the 908 MHz frequency band (US) or 868 MHz (EU), Z-Wave creates a mesh network where each mains-powered device acts as a signal repeater, extending range throughout the house. Key advantages over Wi-Fi: dedicated frequency avoids interference from laptops and phones, mesh topology means no single point of failure, and extremely low power draw lets battery devices last 1–2 years. Supports up to 232 devices per network. Common Z-Wave devices: smart locks, light switches, motion sensors, water leak detectors, and thermostats. Requires a Z-Wave hub (SmartThings, Hubitat, or Home Assistant with a Z-Wave stick, $30–$100). Installation is DIY for plug-in devices; hardwired switches and locks may need an electrician ($50–$150 per device). The Z-Wave Alliance certifies interoperability, meaning any Z-Wave device works with any Z-Wave hub regardless of manufacturer.

Question 9

Wat is een Home automation hub?

Accepted Answer

A central controller that connects and coordinates smart home devices across different wireless protocols (Z-Wave, Zigbee, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Thread/Matter) into a single interface. Without a hub, each device brand requires its own app and may not communicate with other brands. Popular hubs: Samsung SmartThings ($70–$130), Hubitat Elevation ($150–$180, runs locally without cloud), Home Assistant (free software on a $50–$150 Raspberry Pi or dedicated box), and Apple HomePod Mini ($100, limited to HomeKit devices). Key features to evaluate: protocol support (Z-Wave + Zigbee covers 90% of devices), local vs. cloud processing (local hubs work during internet outages), automation complexity (time-based, sensor-triggered, multi-step scenes), and voice assistant integration (Alexa, Google, Siri). Installation is DIY for most hubs — professional setup with device programming and automation creation costs $200–$500. A hub becomes essential once you have 10+ smart devices, as direct Wi-Fi connections from many devices can overwhelm a standard router. The new Matter standard (2022+) aims to reduce hub dependency by enabling cross-brand compatibility natively.

Question 10

Wat is een Mesh Wi-Fi system?

Accepted Answer

A whole-home wireless networking solution using multiple access points (nodes) that communicate with each other to create a single seamless Wi-Fi network, eliminating dead zones common with traditional single-router setups. Unlike Wi-Fi extenders (which create separate networks and cut bandwidth in half), mesh nodes use a dedicated wireless backhaul channel to maintain full speed throughout the home. Typical coverage: 2-pack covers 2,500–4,000 sq ft; 3-pack covers 4,000–6,000 sq ft. Popular systems: Google Nest Wi-Fi Pro ($200–$400, Wi-Fi 6E), eero Pro 6E ($200–$350), TP-Link Deco ($150–$300), and Netgear Orbi ($300–$700 for higher-end tri-band). Key specs: Wi-Fi 6 or 6E support, tri-band (dedicated backhaul), wired Ethernet backhaul option for best performance, and smart device prioritization (important for homes with 30+ connected devices). Professional installation with optimal node placement and network configuration costs $150–$400 — placement matters significantly, as nodes should be 30–50 feet apart with minimal walls between them. Mesh systems are especially important for smart homes, as Z-Wave/Zigbee hubs, cameras, and streaming devices all depend on reliable connectivity.
