Rewiring a stripped-back period home during renovation

House rewiring
in Ashwood.

Some Ashwood houses still carry their original wiring behind the plaster. House rewiring makes sense when a renovation opens up walls and ceilings in a 1950s home.

House Rewires for
Ashwood homes.

A weatherboard or brick veneer from the 1950s or 1960s is now more than sixty years old, and the wiring in it has been working all that time. In some Ashwood houses we find old wiring with brittle insulation, plus extra circuits added over the years by whoever was handy. A rewire removes all that and starts again. New cable runs from a new switchboard to every room, with more outlets, safety switches and proper circuits for heavy appliances. It makes the most sense during a renovation, when ceilings or walls are already open, and many post-war homes have roof space and sub-floor access that make the job more straightforward than people expect. If you are not sure the wiring needs replacing, ask us for an inspection. We would rather tell you the truth than sell a job you do not need.

What the job involves, warning signs and what's included are on our main house rewires page. For everything else we do locally, see electrician Ashwood.

Good work. Happy locals.

Can an Ashwood weatherboard house be rewired while we live in it?

Often it can, working room by room, though it depends on the extent of the work and how the family copes without power in some areas. We plan the stages with you, so the kitchen and bathrooms are not out of action for long.
