Everything your home's electrics need

Most of our work is residential — houses, townhouses, cluster homes and flats across Pretoria East. That ranges from a single dead plug point to rewiring an entire older property, and everything between.

Residential work we handle

  • Plug points and switches — new installations, relocations, replacements and repairs
  • Dedicated appliance circuits for stoves, ovens, tumble dryers, dishwashers and air conditioners
  • Full and partial rewiring of older homes with deteriorated or unsafe wiring
  • Renovation and extension wiring, including kitchens, bathrooms and new rooms
  • Outdoor plugs and garden circuits, correctly weather-rated
  • Cottage, flatlet and outbuilding supplies, including sub-boards
  • Pool pump, borehole and irrigation electrical connections
  • Gate motor, garage door and intercom electrical supply
  • Prepaid meter wiring and fault resolution
  • Surge protection for sensitive equipment

Older homes in Pretoria East

Many properties in the older parts of Pretoria East were wired to standards that were perfectly adequate at the time but don't match how a modern household actually uses electricity. A house built for a stove, a geyser, a fridge and a few lights is now running multiple air conditioners, a pool pump, computers, a borehole and an inverter.

The signs are usually visible: too few plug points, so extension leads and multi-plugs are doing permanent work they were never designed for; lights that dim when a heavy appliance starts; warm switches or plug points; and a distribution board that's been extended repeatedly over the decades.

A rewire doesn't always have to happen all at once. We often stage the work by area or circuit so the cost is spread and your home stays liveable throughout.

Planning a renovation? Bring an electrician in during the planning stage rather than after the walls are closed. Chasing cables into finished walls costs considerably more than laying them while the building work is open, and it's far easier to get plug positions right on a plan than to relocate them afterwards.

Landlords and rental properties

We work with a number of landlords and managing agents in Pretoria East on tenant-reported faults, inter-tenancy inspections and Certificates of Compliance. We can attend the property and report back directly to you where the tenant is present but you aren't.

How we work in your home

We arrive when we said we would, put down protection where we're working, and clean up before we leave. Where chasing or drilling is unavoidable we explain what's involved beforehand so you're not surprised by the mess. And we explain what we found in plain language rather than jargon — you should understand what you're paying for.

Small jobs are charged by time plus materials; larger work such as rewiring or renovation wiring is quoted per job after a site visit. Either way you'll know the price before we start.
Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

It depends heavily on the size and age of the property, how accessible the roof space and walls are, and how much of the existing installation can safely be retained. We inspect and provide a written quote rather than guessing over the phone — rewiring costs vary too widely for a phone estimate to be worth anything to you.

Yes. Depending on what the existing circuit is already carrying, we either extend it or run a new dedicated circuit. We check the existing load first — adding points to an already loaded circuit just moves the problem rather than solving it.

For a straightforward like-for-like swap, many homeowners handle it themselves. Anything involving new wiring, new switching arrangements, bathroom zones, or ceiling access should be done by a qualified electrician. Bear in mind too that new fixed wiring affects your Certificate of Compliance — DIY work is a common reason COCs fail.

Yes, regularly. Many estates and complexes in Pretoria East require contractors to sign in at the gate or provide documentation in advance. Let us know when you book and we'll make sure it's arranged so there's no delay on the day.
