Does My Home Need Rewiring?

If your home is older than 30 years and still has the original wiring, it might be time to consider a rewire.

Rewiring isn't just about keeping up with technology — it’s about keeping your family safe and your home compliant with today’s standards.

🧠 Signs You Might Need Rewiring:

• Constant power tripping or flickering lights

• Buzzing power points or switches

• Burn marks or a burning smell from outlets

• Old fuse boxes instead of modern circuit breakers

• Rubber or cloth wiring (common in pre-1980 homes)

• Lack of safety switches (RCDs)

⚠️ Why It Matters:

Old wiring can:

• Overheat and cause fires

• Be unsafe for modern appliances

• Void your home insurance if an incident occurs

💡 What a Rewire Involves:

We’ll:

• Remove and replace old cables and fittings

• Install new safety switches and circuit breakers

• Add extra outlets if needed

• Provide a Certificate of Electrical Safety for all work

All work is done to Australian Standards and with minimal disruption to your home.
