Common questions
How does a kitchen electrical job usually work?
Kitchen jobs typically run across two site visits. On the first we disconnect all points in the kitchen or where cabinetry is to be installed and run any new or relocated wiring. On the second, once the cabinetry is in, we reconnect switches, power points, ovens and cooktops, install any new LED lighting and update or add safety switches where needed.
Do you work with cabinet makers and kitchen companies?
Yes — we have worked with kitchen companies and cabinet makers for years, so we are used to coordinating with them. We maintain close relationships with all the trades involved to get the job completed as promptly as possible and to a high standard, which keeps your kitchen project on track.
Can you relocate power points and switches for a new layout?
Yes. A new kitchen layout almost always means moving electrical points to new positions. On the first visit we disconnect the existing points and run wiring to where the new layout needs them, so everything lines up with the cabinetry and appliances once they go in.
Will you install the lighting for my new kitchen?
Yes. We install new LED lighting as part of kitchen work, including under-cabinet lighting that lifts both the look and the practicality of the space. We can talk through lighting options so the kitchen is well lit where it matters, such as over benches and the cooktop.
Can you be flexible with timing?
Yes. We are flexible with dates and times to suit your needs and the schedule of the other trades on the job. Kitchen projects depend on good timing between trades, so we coordinate closely and are punctual and efficient with the time we are on site.
Do you handle the oven and cooktop connections?
Yes. On the second visit we reconnect ovens, cooktops, switches and power points once the cabinetry is installed. These are fixed appliances that must be connected correctly and safely, and that is licensed electrical work we handle as part of the kitchen job.
