New Build & Construction Electrical
Complete residential electrical for new homes, granny flats, duplexes and knock-down rebuilds — from temporary builder's supply and rough-in through to fit-off, energisation and handover documentation.
- Builder's Supply Arranged
- On Programme, Not Ahead of It
- Full Handover Pack
Rough-In StageThe Three Things That Blow a Build Budget
Electrical rarely blows out because of cable. It blows out because of decisions made too late.
Layout Decided After Rough-In
Moving a point once the linings are on means opening a wall that has been plastered and painted. Every point settled at rough-in costs a fraction of the same point settled at fit-off.
Supply Capacity Left Too Late
An all-electric home with induction, a heat pump and an EV charger can exceed what the existing service can carry. Finding that out at energisation means a network application on the critical path instead of months earlier.
No Provision for What Comes Next
A conduit to the garage and spare ways in the board cost almost nothing during construction. Retrofitting the same EV circuit through a finished slab and a lined wall is a different job at a different price.
From Slab to Handover
One contractor across the whole programme, so nothing falls between stages.
Take-Off From Plans
A fixed price built from the drawings and the electrical layout, with the provisional items named as provisional rather than buried in a lump sum.
Temporary Builder's Supply
Site supply arranged and installed so the other trades have power from day one, and removed cleanly at handover.
Rough-In and Fit-Off
Cabling, conduits and points set out at frame stage, then fittings, switches and the board completed after linings — coordinated to the builder's programme.
Energisation and Handover
Network application, meter coordination, full testing to AS/NZS 3000, CCEW lodged, and a circuit schedule the owner can actually read.
New Build Questions
