Kitchens and bathrooms are where most renovation electrical work happens, and where it most often goes wrong — usually because the electrical was decided after the cabinetry rather than before it.
On the older South Auckland housing there is a second problem waiting behind the wall. Open up a 1960s kitchen in Papakura or Manurewa and you may find a circuit already at its limit, no earth on the lighting, or a board that cannot take another circuit. That is not a disaster, but it is much cheaper to know before the gib comes off than after the bench is in.
Renovation Electricians, South Auckland & Franklin
BW Henderson has been wiring houses in this part of Auckland since 1952, which means we have usually seen the era of house you are renovating before. We work with homeowners directly and alongside builders and kitchen firms across Papakura, Takanini, Manurewa, Karaka, Drury, Pukekohe and Franklin.
We price the electrical as part of the job rather than as a series of surprises: what the board needs, what has to be rewired, and what can stay.
- Electrical layout design and consultation
- Wiring and rewiring
- Switchboard upgrades
- Lighting installation and upgrades
- Fixture installation
- Electrical safety inspections and testing
Home Renovations
Renovating your home is a great way to update your property and potentially increase its value. However, home renovations can be complex, requiring careful planning and coordination, especially when it comes to electrical work. That’s where we come in.
Our home renovation electricians work closely with you to ensure that the electrical aspects of your renovation are seamlessly integrated into the overall design. We provide expert advice on the placement of electrical outlets, lighting fixtures, and more to optimise functionality, aesthetics, and energy efficiency.
No matter the scale of your renovation, we have the skills and experience to handle all your electrical needs. We are committed to delivering high-quality workmanship, using only the best materials and the latest techniques to ensure that your renovated home is safe, comfortable, and built to last.
Kitchen Renovations
Kitchens want planning before cabinetry: where appliances land, how many dedicated circuits the oven, hob and dishwasher need, task lighting under the cupboards, and enough outlets on the bench that you are not unplugging the kettle to use the toaster. Getting the layout right on paper costs nothing; moving a circuit after the cabinets are in costs a great deal.
Bathroom Renovations
Bathrooms are governed by zones — how close a fitting, switch or outlet may sit to a bath or shower, and what rating it must have in each zone. Extract ventilation to the outside is a requirement rather than a nicety, and on a rental it is part of the Healthy Homes Standards. We wire bathrooms to those rules, not around them.
- Heated towel rails
- Exhaust fans and ventilation systems
- Lighting fixtures
