Homes in Mount Eden
Villas and bungalows around the maunga
Mount Eden is built around its volcanic cone, with streets of character villas and bungalows running down towards Eden Park. It is about 28km from our base via the Northwestern motorway.
Plenty of these homes still have original wiring in some rooms and newer cable in others, from renovations done over the years. Fault-finding, switchboard work and renovation wiring make up most of what we do here.
Faults that come and go
Older wiring tends to throw up faults that appear, disappear and come back, which makes them hard to pin down. In one Mount Eden home, power and lighting circuits kept tripping on and off over several days.
Rather than reset the board and hope it held, we traced the fault back to its source and repaired it there. If the wiring is past it, we will say so and quote a rewire.

Renovations and commercial circuits
Renovations mean working in with other trades and fitting around their timing. We safely disconnected a heat pump before the builders started and reconnected it once the renovation was ready.
A local business also needed its fire alarm on its own correctly rated circuit instead of sharing one with other equipment, so we installed a dedicated circuit breaker for it. Alarm systems on a shared circuit can lose power when another appliance trips.
