WE ARE A LOCALLY OWNED & OPERATED MASTER ELECTRICIAN!

In the case of commercial or industrial buildings, only a licensed electrician can perform the work.
As for residential, you technically can carry out some DIY jobs at your own home or your close family member’s property. We wouldn’t advise it. Due to the risk, you or the person whose home your working on must actually own that property.

We obviously do not recommend anyone undertaking electrical work on their own properties unless that person has some qualifications in that department. You should only attempt work that is considered low-risk work, if at all. Keep in mind that the likelihood of accidents and fatalities can increase dramatically if an installation is not done correctly. Health and Safety should always come first, and in these cases, there is nothing like the knowledge, experience and skills of our Master Electricians in Greerton.

There is no specific set time to rewire a house. Still, suppose your home is older than twenty-five years, and somebody else has previously occupied it. In that case, a rewiring service is likely to be recommended by the qualified Electricians Greerton.

There can be other warning signs that indicate a rewire is due. These include circuit breakers that trip regularly, switches and outlets shocks, frequently burnt light bulbs. A good tip of advice would be to book an electrical safety check every ten years, on average, to make sure everything is working and running smoothly and prevent further damage and fatal accidents.

Nevertheless, if you have concerns over your wiring safety, get in touch today with our team to know how we can help you.

Replacing electrical wiring will not necessarily increase the market value of your home. Still, it will undoubtedly be a plus when selling it and keep up to the same standard level and price as other houses in the market. In other words, not having it replaced can translate into a lower selling price than your house’s full potential.

Aside from the market value, replacing outdated wiring can improve the performance of your electrical appliances at home, giving you peace of mind that there won’t be any unpleasant surprises. Not to even mention the safety aspect, of course.

The first thing we would recommend to save energy is to replace all your old lighting – like fluorescents, for example – with LED lamps, as they are a great source of light while providing a sound reduction in energy usage. They can seem a bit costly at first, compared to traditional bulbs, but they are a lot more effective and efficient in the long run, providing a good quality/price ratio over time.

Secondly, if you are using a heat pump, we advise setting the temperature at twenty-four degrees celsius to help save on your power bill. And if on top of that, it is installed in the shadow, it could save up to ten per cent in power usage! This same tip can be used on other appliances that handle temperature, like a fridge, for instance. It can also be set up at a more energy-efficient level by diminishing the set temperature to one that is not so low so that the energy consumption to achieve such a temperature is not too high.

If you have recently purchased a property that has previously been occupied by somebody else, then it would be a good idea to get a safety check. It will help you know the general condition of the wiring and prevent any future problems with your appliances, as old wiring can pose a risk to anyone living or visiting the property.

If your property is older than twenty or twenty-five years, it is also appropriate to carry out a safety check. The reason behind this is that technology and artefacts keep upgrading over the years, and they usually require more power to work, leaving those old wires overloaded to provide energy to all currently working machines or appliances. In these cases, burnout could happen, and most likely, the damage and injuries could follow. So, better prevent than regret.

Although these are two of the most common situations our customers request an electrical safety check, you don’t necessarily need to leave it until then. If you have any concerns about your property’s electrical condition, it is indeed an excellent time to call us for one.

Different occasions could be a good reason to call an electrician. This could be the case of emergencies, like a power outage caused by old wiring or overload/overheating of extension cords, as well as receiving shocks at the slightest touch of a switch or flickering lights. It is a great idea to perform maintenance checks with an electrician in Greerton from time to time to ensure your property’s electrical system works perfectly. This will help prevent accidents in future while updating any electrical equipment that may be faulty, as part of the maintenance tasks.

Last but not least, Master Electricians are fundamental for new builds, as they are the ones who know exactly how to lay a safe electrical installation and are authorised by law.

Our electricians in Greerton at Electrical NZ, provide services to many industries including, but not limited to, agricultural businesses, factories, commercial centres, schools and other educational builds, Council buildings, industrial facilities, hospitals and other medical buildings, as well as hospitality businesses.

If your commercial building is not listed here, it doesn’t necessarily mean it is not part of our work. So, please feel free to contact us to clarify any questions you may have or get a quote that adjusts better to your commercial building.

In summary, and opposite to overhead ones, underground electrical works are those that connect your building to the utility or service supplier, like the internet or power provider. An electrician designs and engineers the system that will be placed under the building’s floor and into the ground, with pipes that will connect your home or business to the external point of connection and source of your service.

Installing underground systems allows you to keep your cables and connections invisible while protecting them from severe weather damage.
