New installations
Full installations for new builds, extensions, cottages and outbuildings — from the supply point to the last plug, planned before anything is chased into a wall.

Everything else on this site eventually lands at the board on the wall. New installations, rewires, additions and the fault that trips your earth leakage every second evening — tested under load and certified where the work calls for it.

Electrical work is the part of a property you never look at until it stops. It is also the part where doing it neatly and doing it correctly happen to be the same thing — a labelled board is a board somebody can safely work on later.
DB boards & rewires
New boards and board upgrades, with earth leakage protection, ways sized correctly and every circuit labelled for what it actually feeds — not for what it fed in 1998.

Repairs & fault finding
The breaker that trips at the same time every evening, the plug circuit that died, the earth leakage that will not stay in. We find the cause instead of resetting it and leaving.
- tripping
- dead circuits
- earth leakage
Additions
Extra plugs, lights, isolators, outside lighting and dedicated circuits for a geyser, pump, aircon or workshop — run properly rather than spurred off whatever was nearest.

Changeover & backup wiring
The board work behind an inverter or a generator: essential circuits separated onto their own supply and a changeover that switches without anybody flipping anything.

Certificate of Compliance
A COC covers the fixed electrical installation and is commonly required when a property is sold or transferred. We issue one for the work where the installation calls for it — ask us what your job needs.

helps · not requiredWhat we need to know
For a fault, the pattern matters more than the symptom. When it happens is usually what finds it.
- What is happening, and whenEvery evening, only when the geyser runs, only in the rain — the pattern is the clue.
- Which breaker tripsAnd whether it is the main, the earth leakage or one circuit.
- A photo of your boardOpen cover if it is safe to do so. It tells us a great deal in one image.
- Age of the propertyRoughly when it was built or last rewired, if you know.
- Whether you need a COCAnd why — a sale, a transfer, an insurance requirement, or after work has been done.
- What you are addingA geyser, pump, aircon, workshop or cottage — anything that needs its own circuit.
Do not have all of that? Message us anyway. The survey exists precisely so that you do not have to work any of this out yourself — it is free, and there is no obligation at the end of it.

Questions
A COC certifies that a fixed electrical installation meets the required standard. In South Africa one is commonly required when a property is sold or transferred, and it may also be asked for by an insurer or after electrical work has been done.
We issue a COC for work where the installation calls for one. If you are not sure whether your job needs one, ask us — it is a straightforward answer and it is better asked before the work than after.
Yes — that is a fault-finding job rather than a guessing one. We isolate circuits to narrow down where the leakage is coming from, then fix the cause. Resetting the switch and leaving is not a repair.
Yes. Board upgrades are common in older properties: earth leakage protection added, ways sized properly, spare ways for future circuits, and every circuit labelled for what it actually feeds.
Yes, and that is a good reason to have one contractor do both. The board work, the essential-circuit split and the changeover are electrical work, and they are where a badly done solar install shows up first.
Yes. Heavy loads belong on their own circuit with the right protection and an isolator, not spurred off the nearest plug point. We run it properly from the board.
It depends on the size of the installation and on what the inspection finds — if faults come up, they have to be repaired before a certificate can be issued. We will tell you what we found and what it will take before doing any of that work.
Yes — offices, shops, complexes and farms, as well as homes.
