What we do

Property Systems
Done Properly

Most tradies focus on one thing. Powerhorse looks at how electrical, security, connectivity, and backup power all work together — and what actually needs attention on your property.

Pillar 01

Electrical

Qualified electrical work for homes and rural properties — properly scoped, compliant, and built to last.

  • EV charger supply and installation
  • Smoke alarm upgrades and full-home coverage
  • Switchboard assessment and upgrades
  • Lighting — indoor, outdoor, security
  • Power and general electrical work
Pillar 02

Security

A well-secured property is usually left alone. We identify the weak points and fix what matters — without overselling gear you don't need.

  • Security cameras and CCTV
  • Driveway, shed and yard coverage
  • Motion-sensor security lighting
  • Rural property monitoring
  • Practical security planning
Pillar 03

Connectivity

Whether it's Starlink, rural Wi-Fi, or patchy cell signal — we make the connection actually work.

  • Starlink installation and setup
  • Wi-Fi troubleshooting and extension
  • Rural internet and networking
  • Data cabling
  • Cell signal boosting
Pillar 04

Resilience

Cyclone Gabrielle reminded Hawke's Bay property owners how important it is to keep essential systems working when things go wrong. We help you plan for that properly.

  • Backup power planning and installation
  • Generator inlet and critical circuits
  • UPS for security, networking and Starlink
  • Outage readiness assessment
  • Rural pump and septic continuity

About Powerhorse

Not Just
an Electrician

Hi, I'm Jon.

Powerhorse is an owner-operated property systems business based in rural Hawke's Bay. As a qualified NZ electrician with hands-on experience in electrical, security, Starlink, and connectivity work, I look at the whole property — not just one job.

I built Powerhorse because most tradies focus on one service and sell you more of it. My approach is different: give you clear, honest advice first. Tell you what's worth doing and what isn't. Then do the work properly if you want to move forward.

Serving Napier, Hastings, Havelock North, and wider Hawke's Bay — including rural and lifestyle properties.

Jon, qualified electrician and owner of Powerhorse, based in rural Hawke's Bay
Whole-property thinking
Power, security, internet, and backup all affect each other. Powerhorse looks at how they connect — not just one in isolation.
Paid advice, not free quotes
A Property Check means you pay for proper assessment — not a rushed free visit designed to lock in a sale.
Rural and lifestyle aware
Living rurally in Hawke's Bay means understanding the real challenges — outages, connectivity, long driveways, and spread-out systems.
Honest recommendations
If something isn't worth doing yet, we'll say so. Trust is more valuable than one extra job.

Know What's Worth
Fixing First.

Book a $99* Property Check and know exactly what your property needs — before you spend money on the wrong things.
