New Builds

New homes need wiring done right from the start. We handle full electrical wiring for new Canterbury homes from framing through to final inspection.

Electrical Faults

Tripping circuits and flickering lights are frustrating and unsafe. We diagnose and repair dead outlets and faults fast, often the same day.

Ventilation Systems

Damp, cold homes breed mould and condensation. We install home ventilation systems that keep air moving and reduce moisture year round.

Why Licensed Certification Matters for Every Job.

In New Zealand, electrical work beyond basic like-for-like replacement must be carried out and certified by a licensed electrical worker. This protects your safety and your insurance position, not just a compliance formality.

Uncertified work can fail a building inspection, delay a renovation or new build sign-off, and create problems when selling a property later.

Grounded Plus Electrical is a licensed electrician working directly with Canterbury homeowners and builders, meaning every job carries a paper trail of compliance from rough-in through to final certification.
