ELECTRICAL SERVICES
From diagnosing switchboard faults to installing the latest smart lighting, Build NZ covers every common household electrical need. If you’re plagued by circuits that constantly trip, breakers that feel warm, or the tell‑tale smell of overheated insulation, our team will test and repair the board, replace fuses or breakers, upgrade earthing, and fit modern RCD protection to keep your family safe. We also handle all lighting work—whether you’re replacing a single pendant, adding energy‑saving LED downlights, or fitting motion‑sensor floodlights for security—and we certify every installation for complete peace of mind.
Need more power? We can add extra sockets and USB outlets exactly where you want them, banishing extension‑cord clutter in bedrooms, garages, and outdoor areas. When it comes to heavy‑duty wiring—such as new ovens, hot‑water units, or spa‑pool feeds—we ensure every appliance is correctly cabled, tested, and compliant with New Zealand safety standards.

When you’re planning a new build or renovating a kitchen, bathroom, or entire home, involving Build NZ early in the design phase prevents costly rewiring and keeps every trade on schedule.
