We Build Awesome S…tuff
You bring the idea. We make it real.
Apps, smart homes, AI that actually helps, and the odd thing nobody has a name for yet. If you can describe it, we'll work out how to build it, and have a good time doing it.
Yes, the SH stands for something. Our clients know. Ask us nicely.

What we do
Things we build
We're not precious about what it is. We care that it's worth building and that it works when we hand it over.
-
Software and apps
Small, sharp tools that do one job properly. Web apps, internal systems, the thing that finally replaces that spreadsheet everyone's scared of.
-
Smart homes and spaces
Fully customised Home Assistant setups that pull all your kit into one place, with screens and controls designed around the people who actually live or work there.
-
AI and everyday tech
Practical help for people and businesses adopting AI and other tech. We find the bits that genuinely save you time, set them up, and skip the rest.
-
The random stuff
Some of our favourite projects started with an idea that didn't fit in any box. If it's interesting, we're interested. Try us.
How we work
From "what if" to "it works"
There is a proper process under the hood. We just don't think it has to feel like one.
-
Tell us the idea
Half-formed is fine. A sketch, a rant, a voice note from the car. We'll ask the questions that turn it into something we can build.
-
Can it be done?
We check it's feasible before anyone spends real money. You get a straight answer, including when the answer is "don't".
-
Pick a route
There's rarely one way to do it. We lay out the options, from quick and simple to all the bells, and what each one gets you.
-
Know the cost
Real numbers before you commit, so you can decide with your eyes open and nothing turns up later as a surprise.
-
We build it
You see it take shape as we go, not at a big reveal. Expect the occasional tangent. That's usually where the good bits come from.
-
It's yours
We hand it over working, show you how to drive it, and leave you with something you actually understand.
Home automation
A home that just gets on with it
We design and build fully customised Home Assistant setups: one system that ties together the kit you already own and the kit you haven't bought yet.
No off-the-shelf box, no lock-in to one manufacturer. It's built around how you live and work.
Where we've done it
- Many brands, one system
- We integrate providers and platforms that were never designed to talk to each other, so you stop juggling a different app for every gadget.
- Interfaces built for you
- Custom screens and dashboards designed around how you use the space, not whatever the manufacturer thought you wanted.
- Family planners
- A shared view of who's where, what's on and what needs doing, on the wall where everyone will actually see it.
- Smart controls
- Controls that make sense to whoever is in the room, including guests, kids and the person who never wanted a smart home.
Adopting AI
AI and tech, minus the hype
We help people and businesses bring in AI and other tech where it genuinely makes life easier, and we'll tell you where it won't.
Who it's for
- Platform agnostic
- We don't sell anyone's product and we don't have a favourite. You get whatever fits, even if that turns out to be something you already pay for.
- Solution focussed
- We start with the thing that's eating your time, not with the technology. Sometimes the fix is AI. Sometimes it's a much simpler tool.
- Set up properly
- We don't just recommend something and wander off. We get it working in your day-to-day and make sure you're comfortable using it.
