Overview

Safe, Convenient Power Exactly Where You Need It

Modern homes have more electronics and appliances than ever before, but many older Auckland houses simply don't have enough power points to support them. Relying on multi-boards and extension cords is not only ugly and inconvenient, but it's also a major fire hazard due to overloading.

At Electromech, our licensed electricians make adding new power points easy. We can safely spur off existing circuits or run entirely new circuits back to your switchboard to ensure your home can handle the electrical load safely.

We offer a wide range of socket styles, including standard double plugs, modern glass-look faceplates, sockets with integrated USB-A and USB-C charging ports, and heavy-duty weatherproof outlets for your deck or garden.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to install a new power point?
The cost of power point installation in Auckland depends largely on access. If we can easily run a wire under the floor or through the ceiling cavity from an existing circuit, the cost is relatively low. If access is difficult or we need to run a completely new circuit to the switchboard, it will cost more. Contact us for a customized quote.
Can you change a single plug into a double plug?
Yes! This is one of our most common requests. In most cases, we can simply remove the old single faceplate and install a new double power point using the existing wiring, making it a very quick and affordable upgrade.
Can you install power outside?
Absolutely. We regularly install IP-rated, weatherproof outdoor power points. These are perfect for running electric lawnmowers, outdoor heaters, water features, or spa pools safely in New Zealand weather conditions.
Will you have to cut holes in my walls?
Our electricians are highly skilled at "fishing" wires through wall cavities to minimize damage. In most homes with a ceiling cavity or crawl space under the floor, we can install a new socket without making any extra holes. If small access holes are required, we will discuss this with you beforehand.
