Commercial electrical work, around your trading hours

We're the local commercial sparky. Around Ngatea, Paeroa, Thames and Te Kauwhata, the day to day is fit-outs, switchboards, lighting and three-phase for shops, offices, workshops and light-industrial sites.

We plan the work around your trading hours so the floor stays open, and every job is done to the New Zealand wiring standard, AS/NZS 3000, properly tested and certified. This page covers the commercial side. For dairy sheds, pumps and farm work, see our rural electrical page.

Maintenance that keeps you trading

Downtime costs a business more than the repair does. A flickering tube, a warm switchboard or an overloaded circuit is cheaper to sort on a planned visit than as a breakdown mid-trade. We run scheduled maintenance for businesses across the region: lighting checks, switchboard thermal scans, RCD testing and a tidy-up of whatever has been added over the years.

Most commercial sites have grown in stages until the board is full and nobody is quite sure what feeds what. We map it, label it and bring it up to standard so the next change is simple. If power bills are climbing, the commercial solar page covers daytime generation, and a battery is worth a look if an outage stops you trading.

Scheduled maintenance

Lighting, switchboard thermal scans and RCD testing on a schedule, so faults are found before they shut you down.

Switchboard, mapped and labelled

We sort boards that have grown in stages, label the circuits and bring them up to standard so the next change is simple.

Power bills biting?

Commercial solar paired with a battery cuts daytime costs and keeps essentials running through an outage.

Common questions about commercial electrical work

Straight answers. Anything not here, just give us a call.

Do you do commercial fit-outs in Thames or Te Kauwhata?
Yes. New premises, retail fit-outs and office refurbishments across Thames, Paeroa, Te Kauwhata, Te Aroha, Waihi and Ngatea. Switchboards, lighting, power, data and security wiring, coordinated with your builder and other trades to keep the project on schedule.
Do I need a registered electrician for commercial work?
Yes. All fixed electrical work in New Zealand must be done by a registered electrician under WorkSafe NZ rules. That covers fit-outs, switchboards, lighting and machine wiring. Using an unregistered person is illegal and can void your insurance.
Can you run three-phase for plant and machinery?
Yes. Three-phase for compressors, machinery and larger plant, including a supply-capacity check with the lines company first. We coordinate the supply side so you're not chasing two contractors.
Can you upgrade a commercial switchboard without shutting us down?
Mostly. We plan board upgrades around your trading hours, stage the work and keep essential circuits live where we can, so the floor stays open. We talk you through any short shutdown before it happens.
Do you offer scheduled maintenance for businesses?
Yes. Scheduled lighting checks, switchboard thermal scans, RCD testing and reactive call-out cover. Regular maintenance picks up problems before they cause downtime.
Can you wire data, security and EFTPOS points?
Yes. Structured data cabling, network points, security system power and dedicated supply for EFTPOS and POS terminals, set up as part of a fit-out or added to an existing site.
Do you cover the wider region for commercial work?
Yes. Across Ngatea, Paeroa, Thames, Te Aroha, Waihi, Te Kauwhata and the surrounding towns. See where we work for the full list.
Can you come out today if something has stopped us trading?
Yes. Faults that stop you trading get prioritised same-day where we can. Call 021 244 5757 or send a quote request. We're based in Ngatea, so it's usually a short drive to come and take a look.
