Our Services

Here’s a look at some of the most popular services our residential electricians provide in Auckland

Indoor Lighting

One of the most important parts of a residential electrical project is to create the perfect indoor lighting system for your home. We use our many years of experience, and our qualified lighting designers to create the perfect solution tailored to your requirements.

Outdoor Lighting

There’s nothing better than an evening spent outside with family and friends. The perfect outdoor lighting can help create the perfect ambience for your outdoor get-togethers!

Add-On Lighting

Whether you just need additional lighting in the living room, or you’re looking to create a lighting scheme for your newly added outdoor space, our electricians in Auckland will work with you to design a lighting setup that meets your needs, budget, and timeframe.

Additional Power Outlets

Several older homes are not suited for the modern lifestyle. Our registered electricians in Auckland can install additional power outlets at strategic points in your home to help cope with the additional gadgets and electrical devices.

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.

Hot Water

Whether you need an upgrade, urgent repairs or a complete system replacement, our electricians can carry out an on-site assessment to identify your requirements and provide a solution for all kinds of hot water issues.

EV Chargers

With electric vehicles becoming popular by the day, it only makes sense to install a charging station on your property. Get in touch with us to discuss your requirements.

Smart & Energy Efficient Solutions

Technology has come a long way in the last 10years, and so have our electricians! We can walk you through bluetooth lighting and alarm systems you can control via an app on your phone. Or perhaps an energy efficient hot water system that reduces your power bill by up to $700 per year! Indoor air quality and reducing condensation is also a game changer for those working from home more often. We can tailor the perfect solution to suit your lifestyle.

Electrical Repairs and Maintenance in Auckland

We realise that even one malfunctioning appliance can wreak havoc on the entire household. That’s why we make it our goal to deliver prompt and quick service to all our clients.

Ceiling Fan Repairs & Installation

When considering a ceiling fan installation, understanding the costs involved is essential for homeowners across Auckland. The ceiling fan installation cost can vary based on several factors, such as the type of fan, the complexity of the installation, and whether high ceiling fan installation is required.

Extractor Fan Installation

At Livewire Electrical, we recognise that effective ventilation is essential for maintaining a healthy home, especially in areas like bathrooms and kitchens. A properly installed bathroom extractor fan is crucial for reducing mould and ensuring that your bathroom and nearby spaces stay dryer and healthier.

Outdoor Lighting FAQs

How much does outdoor lighting installation cost in Auckland?

Outdoor lighting installation in Auckland typically costs between $200 and $600 per fitting installed, depending on cable run, fitting type and trenching required.

Can you install garden and landscape lighting?

Yes. We design and install garden, path, deck, pool and feature lighting using IP-rated low voltage and 230V fittings.

Do outdoor lights need to be weatherproof?

Yes. All outdoor fittings must be IP-rated for the location they are mounted in. We choose the right rating for each spot, from sheltered eaves to fully exposed.

Can motion sensor security lighting be installed?

Yes. Motion sensor lights at entries, garages and side access points are a low-cost security upgrade. We can connect them to alarms and smart home systems.

Is outdoor lighting safe around pools?

Yes. We install IP68-rated low-voltage pool and pond lighting that meets NZ standards for use in and around water.

Can outdoor lighting connect to smart systems?

Yes. We install outdoor lighting that links to Philips Hue, Lutron, smart switches and home automation systems for app and voice control.

Do you trench for underground cabling?

Yes. We dig and lay protected underground cabling for garden lighting, power to outbuildings and EV charger feeds.

Can existing outdoor lights be upgraded to LED?

Yes. Replacing halogen and incandescent outdoor fittings with LED reduces power use by up to 80 percent and lasts much longer in Auckland weather.

Do I need council consent for outdoor lighting?

For most residential outdoor lighting, no consent is required. Larger commercial or signage installs may need consent. We let you know during the quote.
