Electrical work in Garkheda - what we actually see on site
Garkheda is an older established residential pocket - independent bungalows, plotted houses, small apartment buildings and a layer of shops along the main road. Many of the homes here were built 20-30 years ago, then expanded floor by floor as families grew, and the electrical work was patched at each stage rather than redesigned. The typical job in Garkheda is a careful, room-by-room upgrade - replacing aluminium with copper, adding dedicated AC and geyser circuits, refreshing earthing pits that were never re-tested, and installing inverter or generator changeover for the power-cut hours that older feeders still see.
Indicative pricing
Garkheda earthing pit installation ₹6,500-9,500 depending on pit type and depth. Inverter changeover panel ₹3,500-6,500. Visit charge ₹199 adjusted into final work bill.

Problems we see & how we fix them
Pulled from real visits in Garkheda. If any of these match what you are dealing with, message us with a photo - we will share an honest read before any technician moves.
- ⚡
Aluminium wiring in older bungalows that has reached end-of-life and warms up under modern AC + geyser loads.
- ⚡
Earthing pits installed when the house was first built that have dried out - current resistance well above 5Ω.
- ⚡
Floors added later with extension wiring run from the original DB, leaving the panel undersized and overloaded.
- ⚡
Inverter / UPS retrofits with no proper changeover - the inverter and mains both feeding the same load, blowing transformers on the inverter card.
- ⚡
Old switchboards with bakelite plates, no earthing, no MCB protection per circuit - replaced with modular boards with RCCB.
- ⚡
Ceiling fan capacitors and regulator failures clustered around peak summer.

Questions we get from Garkheda
Real questions from previous customers in this area. If yours is not here, just WhatsApp us.
Our bungalow is 25 years old. Should we rewire the whole house at once or do it floor by floor?
Floor by floor, in most cases. Full-house simultaneous rewiring means moving out for a week and managing dust and demolition. We usually plan it as ground floor first, then the first floor, then the kitchen and utility. The new DB is sized for the eventual full load on day one so each floor just plugs into its dedicated breaker as it comes online.
My earthing pit is from 1998 and has never been tested.
That is the most common Garkheda scenario. We test with a proper earth-resistance meter on the inspection visit. If the reading is healthy you only need a maintenance refresh (salt + charcoal top-up and the joint to the panel re-tightened). If it has drifted above 5Ω, we install a new GI-pipe or copper-strip pit aligned with IS 3043 - a half-day job for one house.
Can you install an inverter with proper changeover?
Yes. We install inverter and UPS systems with a proper manual or automatic changeover panel so that mains and inverter never feed the same load at the same time. We also segregate "essential" circuits (lights + fans + one or two sockets) from "non-essential" (AC, geyser, motor) so the inverter is sized realistically rather than fighting a 1.5-ton AC.
Do you handle all the small jobs together in one visit?
Yes. Most Garkheda visits cover multiple small items in one trip - ceiling fan replacement, regulator change, leaking switchboard, geyser point, doorbell, plug-point repair. We list everything before billing so you know exactly what was done.
