House Rewires for
Balwyn homes.

Not every older home needs a full rewire. We start by testing what is there. In Balwyn's brick bungalows, we regularly see mixed vintages: some rubber or cloth wiring in the roof, a few rooms updated in the sixties, and newer circuits in the kitchen. A test of insulation resistance tells us what is sound and what is not. If it is not, we plan a rewire that suits your timeline, whole house at once if you are moving out for a renovation, or in stages if you are not. Brick homes allow clean cable runs through the roof and subfloor. If you are about to demolish for a rebuild, a rewire is unnecessary, and we will tell you so. We also fit a new board, because new wiring behind an old fuse box makes little sense.

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 Balwyn.

Good work. Happy locals.

FAQ

House Rewires in Balwyn: FAQs

Can't see your question? Call Steve on 0450 347 495.

We might knock down and rebuild in a couple of years. Is a rewire worth doing now?

Probably not unless something is unsafe. If we find damaged wiring or a hazard, we can fix it. Otherwise, you may be better off waiting for the rebuild. We will test and give you an honest view before you spend money you will not get value from.
