Electrical work for a town of established homes
Benoni earned its "City of Lakes" name honestly, and the homes and businesses that ring Homestead Lake, the Korsman Bird Sanctuary and Willowmoore Park have the electrical history to match. A lot of the town was wired decades ago, so the everyday problems we get called out for here are rarely dramatic — a DB board that trips once the kettle and geyser run together, a plug circuit that has quietly been overloaded for years, or a wiring layout that no longer suits how a family actually lives.
That is the work Electromech does best. We are a registered, wireman-licensed electrical contractor with around twelve years on the East Rand, and Benoni sits right in our regular round. Whether you are in Rynfield, Farrarmere, Northmead, Lakefield or out on a plot in Brentwood Park, you get the same thing: a proper diagnosis, honest advice, a tidy job, and paperwork that stands up — everything signed off to SANS 10142, with a Certificate of Compliance issued where the work calls for one.
Why Benoni homeowners keep our number
Careful, compliant work — and none of the guesswork.
Licensed and accountable
Registered and wireman-licensed, with every job done to SANS 10142. You get compliant work and a COC when one is needed — not a quick reset and a shrug.
We fix the cause
A tripping board or a dead circuit has a reason. We trace it properly with real fault-finding rather than swapping parts and hoping.
Local, not passing through
We know Benoni's older suburbs and the quirks that come with them — from perished rubber wiring to undersized boards. That local read saves you time and money.
Free, honest quotes
We assess the job, explain it in plain language and price it up front — no obligation, no surprises added on later.

Generators & backup →Rynfield, Farrarmere and the ageing-DB-board problem
Walk through the leafy streets of Rynfield or Farrarmere and you will find beautiful, solid houses — many of them still carrying the wiring and distribution boards they were built with. Over the years, extra plugs, a pool pump, a second geyser and now an inverter or generator all get hung off a board that was never designed for the load. That is when breakers start nuisance-tripping, or worse.
We take the whole picture into account. Sometimes the fix is a clean DB board upgrade with the circuits properly split; sometimes it is targeted fault finding and a partial rewire. Either way you get work that is safe, compliant and documented — and an electrician who will tell you plainly what needs doing now versus what can wait.

Two sides of Benoni, one electrician
Around the lakes and the suburbs
Most of our Benoni work is residential — the bread-and-butter jobs that keep a family home safe and running. That means geyser and element faults, plug and lighting circuits, outdoor and security lighting for lake-side and larger stands, garden and pool-pump supply, and DB boards brought up to standard. In Lakefield and Crystal Park we see a lot of moisture-related faults, and out in Brentwood Park it is often three-phase supply and borehole or pump wiring on the smallholdings. Whatever the job, our residential electrical work is neat, safe and properly certified.
Northmead, the CBD and small business
Benoni's small-business base keeps us busy too. Along the Northmead commercial strip, around Lakeside Mall and through Benoni CBD we handle shopfitting, lighting layouts, sub-distribution boards, maintenance and the compliance certificates a landlord or tenant needs. If you run a shop, office, salon or workshop, our commercial and industrial team keeps the lights on and the paperwork in order — with minimal disruption to trading hours.
