More about electrical work in Heathcote
Heathcote's bush setting means longer outages after storms are more likely. Once the network is restored, we can check your installation for damage.
Older cottages may have original wiring in some circuits, and we test before advising on upgrades.
Larger bush blocks often have outbuildings, water pumps and long cable runs. Tree roots, wildlife and moisture can damage underground cables, causing intermittent tripping that's hard to trace. We test each circuit methodically to find the fault.
Many homes rely on electric water pumps or tanks, so a power fault can also mean no water. If your pump circuit trips, we'll find out why.
After a long outage, appliances such as freezers, pumps and air conditioners can all start at once when the power returns. If this trips your main switch, it may be a sign the board needs upgrading.
If you're planning a granny flat or studio on a large block, we can check whether your supply and switchboard can handle it before plans are finalised.
