Upper Hutt Switchboards

The result is a neat, clearly labelled board you can actually read. Getting there means removing the old panel, installing a modern unit with circuit breakers and safety switches, reconnecting and testing every circuit, and issuing a certificate of compliance.

Households using far more power than they did years ago often outgrow their original board. As demand climbs, an undersized panel becomes a bottleneck and a hazard. An inspection measures the gap between what you need and what the board provides.

Each quote is tailored to the property, so factors such as board size, circuit numbers, and the addition of safety switches or surge protection set the price. Older installations may need rewiring or asbestos handling, which we include in the estimate. There is no callout fee for our visit and the upfront written quote costs you nothing.

You can be confident that the trades who arrive at your home are licensed, insured and trained to Australian standards. Each completed upgrade comes with a certificate of compliance for your records. We also include a lifetime labour guarantee, so the quality is protected for as long as you own the property.

Wet areas, outdoor power and ageing wiring all raise the chance of a fault that could give someone a shock. Safety switches are designed precisely for those moments, cutting the supply before injury occurs. We make sure these higher-risk circuits are covered when we upgrade a board.

A normal residential switchboard generally takes a few hours through to a day. When the scope allows we offer same-day service to finish in one go. The outage period is planned to be as short as possible.

Around your neighbourhood and beyond, we cover the local area and the adjoining suburbs as standard, with the broader region within reach for bigger jobs. A quick check by phone or online tells you whether you are covered.

New compliant boards replace these old panels cleanly once any asbestos backing has been dealt with safely. We carry out the removal using the recognised procedures, install the modern unit, and test every circuit. You move from an outdated panel to a properly protected one.

Switchboard emergencies are handled around the clock, day or night, because faults like burning smells, sparking, or persistent tripping cannot wait. The safest first step is to turn off the main switch if you can reach it safely and then call us. We will respond quickly and sort the fault out properly.

Compliance with current standards is guaranteed on every job, and each circuit is tested for safety. We issue the certificate of compliance and stand behind the labour with a lifetime guarantee.
