From Consultation to Complete ControlHow the Smart Yard Process Works

Smart Yard by Roark is designed to simplify every aspect of outdoor automation. From your first consultation to the moment you control your backyard from your phone, the process is handled entirely by Roark’s experienced technicians.

1. Evaluate

Roark begins with an on-site evaluation of your current systems. We identify which components — pool equipment, lighting, misting, irrigation, or other devices — can be integrated and recommend upgrades where needed for full compatibility.

2. Integrate

Once your plan is approved, our technicians install and configure the smart control hardware, linking all selected systems into a single, secure network.

3. Activate

Finally, we install the app on your preferred device and walk you through every feature — from scheduling and scene setup to remote monitoring — so you can manage your outdoor environment with confidence.
