About Us

Auckland based.
Servicing new Zealand wide.

We're an Auckland based electrical and technology company that's been working on Auckland's homes since 2004 — across architectural new builds, major renovations, lighting design, home automation, and theatre rooms.

We're registered electricians, but we're also AV and IT specialists. Everything that runs on a wire or a network in your home can be designed, installed, and supported by the same team. No handing off between trades.

If you're building, renovating, or upgrading, we'd love to talk.

Our Services

What we do for
residential clients

01New Builds & Renovations
+

Get the wiring and infrastructure right at build stage and everything else becomes easier for the life of the home.

A new build or major renovation is the best opportunity to properly plan the home's electrical and technology infrastructure including wiring, switchboards, structured cabling, Wi-Fi coverage, lighting circuits, EV charging, surveillance, automation, and future technology requirements.

We work alongside your architect, builder, and project manager from the design stage through to completion, delivering electrical and technology systems to a high standard, on programme, and with the documentation needed for future upgrades and servicing.

What we cover

  • Full residential electrical fit-out for new builds
  • Major renovation rewiring and switchboard upgrades
  • EV charging installation
  • Structured data cabling and network infrastructure
  • Alarm and surveillance pre-wiring
  • Coordination with architects and builders
  • Wi-Fi and smart home pre-wiring
  • Conduit pathways for AV, networking, and automation
02Smart Home Automation
+

Integrated control of lighting, climate, security, audio, blinds, and home technology from a single platform.

We design automation systems around the way the home will actually be used, then integrate the control, cabling, networking, and electrical infrastructure into the build from day one. The result is a reliable and intuitive system that works seamlessly across the entire home.

Because we've been specifying automation platforms for Auckland homes since 2004, we understand which systems suit different styles of homes, budgets, and levels of integration.

Common applications

  • Whole-home automation (lighting, climate, AV, security)
  • Integrated control via touch panels, mobile devices, and voice control
  • Smart lighting and automated blind control
  • Integrated security, cameras, and access
  • Multi-room audio and video distribution
  • Retrofit automation for existing homes
  • New build automation planned at design stage
03Home AV & Theatre Rooms
+

Home theatres, multi-room audio, and feature AV systems designed for the room, not the brochure.

A great home theatre isn't about the most expensive equipment. It's about selecting the right technology, designing the room properly, and integrating the system cleanly into the home's wider electrical and automation infrastructure.

We design and install dedicated theatre rooms, discreet multi-room audio systems, outdoor entertainment areas, and integrated home AV environments tailored to how the space will actually be used.

What we deliver

  • Dedicated home theatre design and installation
  • Multi-room and whole-home audio systems
  • Outdoor speakers and entertainment areas
  • Discreet in-ceiling and in-wall speaker systems
  • Architectural and hidden AV integration
  • Streaming and media distribution systems
  • Acoustic and equipment recommendations
  • Integration with smart home and lighting systems
04Lighting Design
+

Well-designed lighting improves how a home looks, feels, and functions every day.

Good lighting design considers how each space is used, how natural light changes throughout the day, and how brightness, colour temperature, beam angle, and control work together within the home.

From subtle architectural lighting through to feature lighting and smart control systems, we design lighting solutions that balance aesthetics, functionality, and long-term efficiency.

What we cover

  • New build and renovation lighting design
  • Architectural and feature lighting
  • Layered lighting schemes (ambient, task, accent)
  • Smart lighting and dimming controls
  • LED specification and energy-efficient design
  • Coordination with architects and interior designers
  • Outdoor and landscape lighting
05Multiroom Audio
+

Seamless audio throughout the home with centralised control across indoor and outdoor living spaces.

Multiroom audio systems allow music, entertainment, and audio content to be distributed consistently throughout the home while giving simple and reliable control by room or zone.

We design and install residential audio systems with discreet speaker integration, properly designed zone control, and infrastructure that integrates cleanly with the home's networking, AV, and automation systems.

Common Applications

  • Whole-home and multi-zone audio
  • Indoor and outdoor entertainment areas
  • Discreet in-ceiling and architectural speaker systems
  • Centralised audio control and streaming
  • Integration with smart home platforms
  • Background audio and entertainment systems

Why Evolve Tech

Electricians, AV specialists, and IT technicians under one roof.

Most residential electricians stop at the wiring. Most home AV companies don't touch the electrical. We do both, and we've been doing it since 2004.

That means your project has one accountable team across electrical, smart home, AV, lighting, and networking. Fewer trades to coordinate. One set of plans. One point of contact.

  • Fewer trades to coordinate
  • One set of plans, one point of contact
  • A finished home where everything works together
  • Designed to work as one system from the start
