Mt Wellington Splits Between Homes and Light Commercial
Mt Wellington work divides fairly evenly between residential and commercial, and the jobs we get called for cluster around installation rather than repair: heat pump installation, security camera installation, and power and data installs.
We’ve also done isolator installation for infinity systems and warranty work on recently built homes in the suburb.
Mt Wellington’s housing stock is largely mid-century with significant townhouse infill, and there’s a substantial light-industrial and retail base around Sylvia Park and the Mt Wellington Highway. Both generate the same core need, adding capacity to switchboards that were sized for a different era.
