High Street's antique dealers and bridal shops give Armadale its character, and the streets behind them hold some fine Victorian and Edwardian homes. A lot of what we do here supports careful renovations.
Armadale's residential streets are dominated by Victorian villas and terraces, Edwardian and Federation houses, and a good number of interwar homes, with some period flats and newer townhouses closer to Malvern Road and High Street. Many of these houses have been lovingly restored, and many streets sit under heritage overlays, so we keep visible external work discreet. Behind the period facades, renovations often add open-plan kitchens, extra bathrooms and modern living areas at the back. That usually exposes an old switchboard and wiring that cannot handle new appliances, air conditioning and heated floors all at once. We help owners plan the electrical side of a renovation early, so the new rooms get proper circuits and the original front rooms keep their character.
“Steve helped us out with some AC installs, a new switchboard and new circuits to enable a complete kitchen redo. He was able to start quickly and the work was done on time as promised. Would definitely hire again!”

Induction Cooktops
“Steve and Jason installed several new downlights and powerpoints in my apartment, as well as installing a bathroom fan and doing a general switchboard check. The work was done very fast and to high quality. Steve had great ideas on how to improve the lighting and ventilation in my apartment in a cost effective manner. Steve's input really improved the look of my bathroom in particular, it almost looks like a new room!”

Can you add new lighting to an Armadale period home without damaging original ceilings?
Yes, with care. We work from the roof space where we can and avoid cutting into decorative plaster or ceiling roses. Where ornate ceilings make downlights unsuitable, we suggest pendants, wall lights or lamps on switched outlets instead.
