House rewiring
in St Kilda East.

Open the manhole in an older St Kilda East house and you may see cable of three different eras, tied together over a century of changes. Rubber insulation turns brittle. Early plastic is not much better with age. The front rooms may still run on original wiring, while the extension at the back has newer cable with a board crammed in the hallway. We take it as a whole picture, testing and inspecting before suggesting anything. If a rewire is the answer, we plan it in sections to suit your life, using the roof space and under-floor access to protect plaster and cornices. A rewire is also the time to give the kitchen proper circuits, fit safety switches throughout and replace the board. We give you a written scope so you know what is included.

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 St Kilda East.
