About PashaK
Who We Are
PashaK grew from a lifetime of tinkering. The kind of curiosity that starts with pulling apart old radios just to understand how they work, and never really stops. Over 20+ years in IT — networking, system administration, corporate infrastructure deployments — that curiosity turned into a career. But the work that always felt most rewarding wasn't the day job. It was helping people. Being the go-to for family and friends whenever something wouldn't connect, something needed setting up, or someone just wanted to know what was actually worth buying.
That role grew over the years. Researching the best TVs, setting up home servers, running cables for security cameras, deep-diving into solar systems before anyone went near a panel. The level of care and preparation that goes into every recommendation has always been the same — whether it's for a client or a friend.
The real turning point came with Home Assistant — an open-source smart home platform built on local control, broad device compatibility, and no lock-in to a single brand or ecosystem. After years of experimenting with systems that always fell short in some way, Home Assistant was the one that delivered. It was deployed at home first: cameras, smart lighting, Zigbee devices, garage openers, blinds, thermostats — automations built around how the household actually lived. Then at family members' homes. Then at friends' places. Each one different — different layouts, different priorities, different budgets — but all of them discovering what was possible for the first time.
For years, the same message kept coming back from different people: "You should be doing this for others." PashaK is the answer to that. A business built on genuine hands-on experience — not just with the technology, but with helping real people in real homes figure out what smart technology can actually do for them, without the jargon and without the overwhelm.
We're not here to sell you a product. We're here to understand your home and build something that fits it.

Experience
with Technology
Integrator, Not Installer
Our role is the technology layer — designing the system, selecting the right devices, configuring everything, and making it all work together. That's where the real complexity lives, and it's what we focus on.
When a project needs physical cabling, electrical work, or equipment mounting, we coordinate with licensed tradespeople so you don't have to manage multiple contractors. You deal with us from start to finish — we handle the rest.
Custom Solutions When It Matters
Not everything comes in the right shape or size. We 3D print custom enclosures, brackets, and mounting solutions for hardware that needs a tidy, purpose-built home — whether that's a Home Assistant controller, a UniFi access point in an awkward location, or a sensor that needs to sit just right.
It's a small detail that makes a noticeable difference to how a finished install looks and feels.
What We Believe
Technology should make your life easier, not more complicated. A home that works for you — where the routine stuff happens automatically and you don't have to think about it.
How We Work
No jargon, no overwhelm. We listen to what you actually want, explain things in plain English, and build solutions that fit your home, your lifestyle, and your budget.
