Renovations & electrical fitouts
Renovating? Let’s get the electrical right.
From kitchen and bathroom renovations to complete home transformations, we work alongside homeowners and builders to bring the electrical side of your plans together.
Renovations
Good renovations start behind the walls.
The best electrical work is planned early. Power point locations, lighting layouts, appliance circuits and future needs all make a difference to how your finished space works.
Whether you’re updating one room or renovating your entire home, we’ll help plan the electrical work around your layout, your lifestyle and the wider renovation schedule.

Planning
A little planning makes a big difference.
Once walls are closed and cabinetry is installed, changing the electrical layout can be harder and more disruptive. Bringing an electrician in early gives you more flexibility, and a better finished result.
Here’s what we’ll talk through with you:
- Lighting placement and switching
- Power point locations
- Kitchen appliance circuits
- Bathroom lighting and ventilation
- Feature lighting and LED strips
- Future electrical requirements
- Switchboard capacity
- Cable routes and access
