Emergency callout FAQs
What counts as an electrical emergency?
Burning smells, smoke, sparking outlets, exposed live wiring, a switchboard that won't reset, water contact with electrics, or total loss of power to your home or business.
How fast can you get here?
We aim to be on site within 60–90 minutes for urban Auckland emergencies, and we give you a realistic ETA when you call — never a vague promise.
What does an after-hours callout cost?
After-hours work carries a callout fee plus an hourly rate, both quoted to you on the phone before we dispatch. You approve the price before we leave the depot.
Should I turn the power off myself?
If it is safe to reach your switchboard, switch off the affected circuit or the main switch, keep everyone clear of the area, and call us. Never touch damaged wiring.
