Rivas Technology Group in Sumner
Sumner is a small city with a distinct character — a charming downtown, established residential neighborhoods, and a tight-knit community that values quality over novelty. Sumner homeowners who invest in smart home technology aren't chasing trends; they're looking for systems that reliably improve how they live. That aligns perfectly with how we approach every project: designed together as one architecture, installed to last, and backed by ongoing support.
Sumner sits at the intersection of the Bonney Lake new construction corridor and Pierce County's established residential market. We're active in both — coordinating with builders on new construction projects to the east and upgrading existing Sumner homes with wireless Control4 retrofits, Ajax security, and enterprise-grade networking. Our Kent base puts us in Sumner in under 30 minutes.
Sumner's Sounder commuter station and its position between Puyallup and Bonney Lake makes it home to a growing number of professionals who work in Seattle but want a quieter lifestyle — and who have high expectations for their home technology. We've installed systems ranging from focused security and networking upgrades to full Control4 whole-home automation.
Every system we install is designed together from the first conversation. Lighting scenes that dim when the security system arms. Shades that drop when the projector turns on. A network built to handle everything we're putting on it. One architecture, one team, one call when something needs attention.

Sumner Smart Home: Old Town & New Builds

We serve all of Sumner — established neighborhoods, downtown adjacent areas, and new construction on the east side toward Bonney Lake. Retrofits in existing homes are one of our specialties, and we design every system as one architecture regardless of whether the home is new or established.
Security upgrades are consistently the top request — replacing older alarm systems with Ajax Systems professional wireless, adding cameras, and integrating everything with Control4 so your security is part of your smart home, not a separate app. Enterprise networking upgrades (replacing consumer mesh with enterprise WiFi) are a close second.
A focused install — security + networking, or smart lighting — typically takes one to two days on-site. A full Control4 whole-home system with lighting, security, shades, audio, and networking designed together ranges from three to five days. We provide a detailed project timeline with your proposal.
In most cases we recommend replacing legacy alarm systems rather than integrating them. Older alarm hardware uses unencrypted wireless protocols and lacks the monitoring quality, cellular backup, and AI capabilities of Ajax Systems. The cost difference is typically modest, and the result is a system designed to work as part of your smart home — not alongside it. We can assess your existing system during a free consultation.
