How much does a home network audit actually cost, and is it worth it?

Pricing for a home network audit isn't published as a flat rate, since scope varies between a quick check and a full multi-device household review. It's worth asking directly for a quote based on your specific setup rather than assuming a fixed number.
What a network audit actually checks
Router security settings, firmware status, connected device count and any unfamiliar devices, and WiFi coverage gaps are all covered in more depth in our dedicated guide on what a home network audit actually checks.
Why the price varies by household
A small apartment with a handful of devices is a much quicker audit than a villa with a smart home system, multiple WiFi nodes, and dozens of connected devices. The scope genuinely differs.
Is it actually worth paying for one
It's worth it if you've never had one done, have noticed unexplained slowness or unfamiliar devices, or are about to add a significant number of new smart home devices and want a clean baseline first.
What you get out of it
A clear picture of your network's actual security posture and performance, along with specific fixes rather than vague general advice.
How we quote it
We quote based on your household's actual device count and complexity after a quick conversation, rather than a single flat number that wouldn't be honest across very different homes.
Frequently asked questions
Why isn't there a fixed price for a home network audit?
The scope depends heavily on device count and household complexity, which varies too much for one flat number to be accurate.
Is a home network audit worth paying for?
Often yes if you've never had one, notice unexplained issues, or want a clean baseline before adding more smart home devices.
What's the difference between an audit and just fixing a slow WiFi problem?
An audit reviews security and overall network health broadly, not just one specific complaint like slow speed in one room.
