Electrical

Electricians first. That’s the whole point.

Solar is only as good as the team behind it. We’re licensed electricians who do solar, not a sales company outsourcing the real work.

Why it matters

Electrical experts.

Plenty of solar companies are sales operations that hire whoever’s available to do the install. We’re the opposite: an electrical team who specialised in solar.

Every install is done by our own licensed, registered electricians, certified and signed off to NZ standards. And we’re still here afterwards, because we’re your local sparkies too.

What we do

Energy-smart electrical work

Everything below cuts your power bill, readies your home for solar, or both.

Switchboard upgrades

Older boards can’t safely handle solar, EV charging or modern loads. Energy demands from the 70s were a lot lower than today! We upgrade and future-proof switchboards for the 21st century.

LED lighting

Whole-home LED conversions that cut lighting energy use dramatically is one of the quickest paybacks in the house.

Heat pump installation

Efficient heating and cooling, installed and wired properly. Which pairs well with rooftop solar.

EV charger installation

Dedicated home charging, safely wired and load-managed, ready to utilise your solar power if you have panels.

General electrical

Rewires, new circuits, extensions, fault-finding: the everyday work of a local Christchurch electrical firm.

Solar-ready preparation

Not ready for panels yet? We can prep your switchboard and cabling now to make adding solar later simpler and cheaper.
