    Frequently Asked Questions

    Do I need a licensed electrician in New Zealand?
    Yes. Prescribed electrical work must be carried out by a registered electrical worker who holds a current practising licence from the Electrical Workers Registration Board (EWRB). DIY electrical work is restricted and can create serious safety and compliance risks. GoFox electricians are appropriately registered and licensed to carry out the electrical work they undertake.

    How do I know if my home's switchboard needs upgrading?
    Common signs include frequently tripping breakers, old ceramic fuses instead of modern RCD-protected circuits, lights that flicker when appliances switch on, or a board that is more than 25 years old. An outdated switchboard may not meet current NZ safety standards and can struggle to handle modern loads like heat pumps, EV chargers, and home offices. A licensed electrician can assess your board and advise on the right upgrade.

    Can an electrician come out after hours or on weekends?
    Yes. GoFox electricians offering after-hours services can assist with urgent electrical issues outside normal business hours, including evenings and weekends. After-hours rates are typically higher than standard rates, so it’s worth confirming pricing when you call.

    How much does an electrician cost?
    Electrician costs vary depending on the type of work, location and complexity of the job. Most electricians charge an hourly rate and may also have a callout or service fee, with travel charges sometimes applying outside their usual service area. Larger or more complex jobs, such as switchboard upgrades or rewiring, may be quoted at a fixed price. Getting a written quote before work begins is recommended so you know what to expect.
