We take all the stress out of finding qualified tradespeople and master electricians. With one of our Renovation Consultants in charge, your project will be managed, stress-free, from start to finish.

We make it easy for homeowners to get quality work done by trusted contractors using premium materials, all within their budgets and time constraints.

What are the current trends in electrical renovations?

Electrical work isn’t usually counted as a frontrunner for trendy and exciting home renovation projects. But it can be. With intuitive refrigerators and touch-reactive benchtops, the continual advancement in technology provides endless options for improving your home’s functionality and appearance.
It wasn’t so long ago that “smart homes” were a futuristic dream. Now, they’re becoming the norm rather than the exception. But, if you’re not ready to compete with your home on an IQ test, start slowly. Upgrade elements throughout your property. Think smart irrigation, smart sound systems, or smart thermostats. They’re all connected to WiFi and can be managed from your phone. 
Another trend across many industries is a sustainable one. What this means for electrical work is changes such as installing eco-friendly LED lighting or solar panels - or both!
To discuss these smart and sustainable options, get in touch with your local Marlborough Renovation Consultant today and arrange a free consultation.

How much do electrical upgrades cost?

Electrical work is often a component of a larger project, so let’s take a look at some examples of electrical work in a range of home renovations. 
- Accommodating larger, power-consuming appliances in a kitchen renovation requires converting to a three-phase power system, costing around $5,000*.
- A new switchboard, rewiring, and LED lighting throughout an average-sized three-bed home will cost somewhere between $8,000 and $10,000*. 
- Converting to a fully smart wired home with a home theatre, two-zone surround sound audio, and a home security system — all controlled from a smartphone — will cost around $27,000*.
*Costs are rough estimates and are subject to change. For a fixed-quote accurate to your specific project, please consult your local Renovation Consultant.
