Electrical Repairs and Maintenance in Auckland

House rewiring or Switchboard Upgrades

Most houses built before 1970 are likely to have the old style rewireable fuses, with deteriorating and unsafe rubber cabling and possibly even asbestos in the switchboard. Current NZ electrical regulations require these to be upgraded to a newer switchboard that meets the latest electrical standards. This ultimately means it’s safer for your home, and significantly reduces your fire risk..

Very pleased. Went the extra mile to make up a damper controller when it couldn't be sourced off the shelf. Great service.

If there is an electrical company that you can trust for quality of work, it's these guys. First communication from Natalie is on point. From Q/A's to payment options was a first relief, awesome Natalie. Then you have the sparky duos (Andrew & Tom) coming in to take care of the hard work that comes with this 1950s house wiring. They kept me informed of the problems and solutions. Even after the project, they came back straight away for a minor issue that was expected afterwards. Thank you gentlemen for your quality of work. Stress free from Livewire and results are 10/10. Keep it up guys.👏👏👏👍

We called this company for the first time last year with an urgent electrical problem and Kent was at our house within 20 minutes of my telephone call. He was efficient, and I could tell that he was working to get the job done asap. He was informative and made sure to thoroughly clean up when he had finished. A huge contrast to the bad experience we had with a different electrical company previously. So we didn’t hesitate to call Livewire a couple of days ago. Again they lived up to their excellent reputation. This time, I think it was Andrew who popped over. He was thorough, polite and made sure to get our permission before he went into the different parts of the house. Thanks also to Annette and Natalie who were very nice to deal with over the phone. We’ve decided that they are our go to company and will not hesitate to recommend their services to others.

I chose Livewire Electrical to complete all electrical work on our new rural house build recently, based on previous positive experiences. Kent and his team did a brilliant job! Friends ask who did the electrical work because it's impressive. They're skilled and they take pride in delivering a great result and it shows. Love your work Livewire!

What a great service. Very pleased. Who would have thought an upgrade would be so rewarding - no more replacing fuse wire! Thanks Livewire and Brendan. Look forward to seeing you again for my new kitchen install.
