House rewiring
in Alphington.

Many of Alphington's older homes have an original core with later additions bolted on, such as a sunroom, a rear extension, a studio. Each addition was wired by whoever was available at the time, and the older cable often remains. We find rubber and cloth insulation, mixed cable types and circuits that nobody can trace. A rewire resets the lot: new cable, new circuits, a new board. Generous roof spaces and underfloor access are common in houses of this age, so we can usually run cable without chasing the walls. Larger blocks sometimes have outbuildings fed by old cable, which we'd check and replace if needed. If you're planning to extend or renovate, rewiring first avoids cutting into new work. We inspect before quoting, so you get a plan that fits the house rather than a one-size-fits-all answer.
