Building a new house?
When to call us for electrical
Most electrical work in a new house happens before the walls are plastered. We work alongside your foreman or contractor, and we quote from your plans.
Before plastering
Conduits and boxes go into the walls before they're plastered. We agree the layout with you first.
Plan every outlet
Aircon, fridge, stove and outlets placed where you'll actually use them.
Panel and grounding
Panel location and grounding planned from the start.
Fit-out at the end
Switches, outlets and lights go on after painting, then every circuit is tested.
Fixing or replacing?
The electrical problems we see most
Breakers that keep tripping
A circuit is overloaded, or there's a fault in the wiring.
Hot or burnt outlets
Loose connections and undersized wire heat up.
Extension cords everywhere
Too few outlets, so the house runs on cords.
No grounding
Many older houses have no ground wire, so appliances can shock.
How we do it right
Our electrical checklist
Find the cause first
Before replacing anything, we find out why it's failing.
Right wire for the load
Wire sized for what the circuit actually runs.
Own circuit for big loads
Aircon and heavy appliances on their own circuits.
Grounded
A proper ground, so a fault trips the breaker instead of shocking someone.
Labelled panel
Every breaker labelled so you know what it controls.
Tested
Every circuit tested before we leave.
Before you hire anyone
Four questions to ask any electrician
Ask whoever you're thinking of hiring, us included. A good answer is specific. "Don't worry, boss" isn't an answer.
- Who does the work, and are they licensed?
- What wire size are you using?
- Will the aircon have its own circuit?
- Is the house grounded?

Questions
Electrical: what people ask
My breaker keeps tripping. Is that dangerous?
The breaker is doing its job: something is overloaded or faulty. Don't tape it on or swap in a bigger breaker. Have it checked.
Can you add more outlets?
Yes, on circuits that can handle the load, so you can retire the extension cords.
Do you handle permits?
Ask us when you message. It depends on the job.
