Electrical planning decisions

Projects we can help with.

The best time to discuss the electrics is while your layout is still taking shape. Room plans and appliance choices help us agree socket positions, lighting and any changes needed to the existing supply before wiring begins.

  • Home extensions
  • Kitchen renovations
  • Whole-property refurbishments
  • Major room alterations

Project stages

The electrical work in stages.

  • Review the plans

    Discuss the layout and building schedule with you and your builder.

  • Check the existing electrics

    Assess the available capacity and identify any upgrades before work starts.

  • Install in stages

    First fix installs the wiring; second fix adds switches, sockets and lights. Visits are coordinated with the other trades.

  • Test and hand over

    Complete the final checks, explain the controls and supply your electrical certificate.

Helpful to know

Questions about extension and renovation electrics.

When should I contact the electrician?

While room layouts and appliances are still being chosen, before wiring begins. Early planning helps avoid expensive late changes.

Can you work with my builder and kitchen installer?

Yes. The electrical stages can be coordinated with the wider project when responsibilities and dates are confirmed.

Can the quote change if I alter the design?

Yes. Changes to layouts, fittings or equipment after quotation may affect materials, labour and the building schedule. Any change will be discussed before the extra work proceeds.
