Work we usually do
- Rewiring for renovations and extensions
- Switchboard upgrades to handle the added load
- Power point, data and lighting layouts
- LED downlights, pendants and outdoor lighting
- Oven, cooktop and rangehood connections
- Ducted, split and multi head systems planned with the layout
- Ductwork design and zoning
- EV charger and heat pump hot water provisions
Where it goes wrong with the wrong contractor
- Air conditioning left until the end
- If nobody plans where the ducts, pipework and outdoor unit go, you end up with visible pipe runs or a system that doesn't suit the new rooms. It's better planned at the drawings stage.
- The old board can't take the new load
- A new kitchen, a ducted system and an EV charger can add a lot of load. Checking the switchboard and supply early avoids a surprise upgrade at the end.
- Holding up the next trade
- If the rough in is late, the plasterer waits and the whole schedule slips. We book our stages with your builder so the next trade can start on time.
How it works
- 1
Look at the plans
Send us the drawings or walk us through the space. We work out where power, lighting and heating and cooling should go.
- 2
Upfront quote by stage
You get a fixed price that covers rough in, fit off and any system supply, so you know the cost before work starts.
- 3
Rough in with the frame open
Cables, ducts and pipework go in while walls and ceilings are open, coordinated with your builder.
- 4
Fit off and hand over
We install fittings and systems, test everything, show you how the controls work and leave the site clean.

Common questions
As early as possible, ideally before the plans are final. That leaves room to place ducts, outdoor units and power where they suit the finished rooms.
Yes. We can work to your builder's schedule or directly with you as the owner if you're managing the project yourself.
Yes. We can run a spare circuit or conduit during the rough in, so adding an EV charger or a heat pump hot water system later doesn't mean opening walls again.
It depends on the board and what you're adding. We check it at the start so there are no surprises at the end.
