House rewiring
in Chadstone.

Wiring from the post-war years does not last forever. In a Chadstone house that has seen decades of use, we sometimes find old wiring with cracked insulation, joints made by earlier owners and circuits that nobody can trace. A rewire replaces the old cable throughout, usually with a new switchboard, safety switches and more outlets than before. The best time is when walls or ceilings are already open for other work, and Chadstone's brick veneer and weatherboard homes are often easier to rewire than people fear, since the roof space and sub-floor give good access. If you are buying a house that looks original, an electrician's inspection can tell you what you are dealing with. We will explain what is worth replacing now and what can wait, so you can plan the work in stages if that suits your budget and your renovation.

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 Chadstone.
