Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about data and TV installations

How much does data cabling cost in NZ?

The cost of data cabling depends on the number of points, cable runs, and the complexity of the installation. A single data point in an existing home typically starts from around $150-$250 including the cable, wall plate, and termination. We provide free quotes so you know the exact cost before any work begins.

Can I get Ethernet installed in an older home?

Yes. Ethernet cabling can be installed in most older homes across Ngatea, Paeroa, and Thames. We run cables through roof spaces, under floors, or along skirting boards to minimise disruption. Hardwired Ethernet gives you a faster, more reliable connection than WiFi alone — ideal for home offices, streaming, and gaming.

What's better for my home - WiFi or hardwired Ethernet?

Both have their place. Hardwired Ethernet is faster, more stable, and ideal for devices that need a reliable connection — like smart TVs, desktops, gaming consoles, and home offices. WiFi is convenient for phones, tablets, and laptops. Many homes benefit from a combination of both, with Ethernet backbone cabling feeding WiFi access points for the best coverage throughout the house.

Do I need a special aerial for Freeview in the Ngatea region?

It depends on your location and distance from the nearest transmission tower. Some properties in Ngatea, Turua, and surrounding rural areas may need a high-gain UHF aerial or a signal booster to receive a clear Freeview signal. We can assess your property and recommend the right aerial setup to get the best reception in your area.
