House Rewires for
Kooyong homes.

Large period homes are rarely wired all at once. We often find a modern kitchen and bathrooms sitting alongside original wiring in the older rooms, with the cables in the roof space telling the real story. A partial rewire is a common, sensible answer. We replace the old sections, leave good wiring alone and bring the whole house to a consistent standard. Plaster ceilings, ornate cornices and timber panelling all need patience. We use the roof space and underfloor wherever we can, and open walls only where there's no alternative. Heritage overlays mean we keep any visible changes discreet. The best moment for a rewire is when a renovation or restoration is already planned, since decorators and builders are on site anyway. We'll give you a clear picture of what's old and what isn't.

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 Kooyong.

Good work. Happy locals.

My Kooyong Federation house was partly rewired years ago. Do I still need a full rewire?

Not necessarily. We inspect the roof space, board and older rooms, and test the circuits. If the original wiring is still in the walls, we can replace only those sections. We'll show you what we find.
