Finite Solutions is ten

by Mark Rowe

A UK home automation specialist has announced a healthy forward order book and a projected growth in annual turnover by 15pc to £2m in 2014. Finite Solutions reports a new private client contract valued at nearly £500,000.

Recessionary conditions and ‘cut backs’ in home improvements are contrary to the experience of the team at Finite. Director Simon Mathieson says: “Whilst there is a definite change in the market, we have maintained a strong focus on solutions that deliver ‘state of the art’ entertainment but also security and energy efficiency. Certainly we operate in a high end market but when a client is investing in complete home automation technology, they want expert installers that will add value. We have been able to assist clients with integrated solutions that can easily control audio-visual, lighting and security systems whilst also facilitating considerable energy savings all of which can be monitored around the world via mobile or tablet.”

Finite Solutions was established by three former university students often living on £3 a week. The company turned over £70,000 in its first year but went on to double its turnover year on year for the first five years, with no outside investment. It now operates from offices in London, Yorkshire, and Cheshire but competes on an international scale as a UK custom installation company.

In the first quarter of 2014 Finite Solutions has its 10th anniversary with plans to launch a separate lighting retail and design business after demand for energy efficient, architectural lighting solutions for residential and commercial clients. The business is also increasing its presence on the contract market working with architects and designers and is promoting its expertise through high street retail. It has successfully partnered with Bo Concept to enhance its showroom at Clive Christian in London, Redbrick Mill in Yorkshire, and Hart-Woods showroom in Bowden, Cheshire.

Mathieson adds: “Showcasing what we can do is absolutely essential to securing clients and we are investing significantly back into the business to overhaul our award winning Show House. It’s a place where we can seriously impress our clients and incorporates the very latest in whole house smart technology and energy efficient lighting. 2014 is going to be a very exciting year for Finite Solutions and our biggest contract to date, re-launching our Show House and celebrating our 10th anniversary is a great start.”
