Hive Consultants | Pre-Electrical Consultations for New Home Builds

The Reality for Most Homeowners

You only get one chance to get your electrical plan right.

Whether building new or renovating, most homeowners attend their electrical appointment feeling overwhelmed and unsure of what they actually need — or what they’ll regret not asking for later.

💸

Costly Variations Later

Adding power points, better lighting, data cabling, or EV readiness after the walls are closed up is expensive and disruptive.

😰

Stress & Pressure

The electrical appointment is one of the most important decisions you’ll make — yet many people feel rushed and make compromises they later regret.

❓

Missed Opportunities

Solar readiness, smart home wiring, future-proof lighting layouts, and strategic power placement are rarely discussed properly in a standard appointment.

15+ Years in the Industry

Hi, I’m Leonie.

After more than 15 years working across residential electrical installations — both new builds and renovations — I’ve seen the same story too often: homeowners who didn’t know what questions to ask until it was too late.

That’s why I created the Pre-Electrical Consultation — to give you the knowledge, options, and confidence you need before you sit down with your builder or electrician.

Feel confident about your electrical decisions.

One conversation now can save you thousands of dollars and years of frustration later.
