House Rewiring PerthOld Homes, Modern Wiring

If your house was built before 2000, there's a decent chance the original wiring is past its use-by date. Cloth-sheathed cable, no earth on some circuits, black rubber insulation that crumbles when you touch it, aluminium wiring in a run of 70s homes that tripped a national recall.

Every one of those is a live insurance problem and a slow-burning fire risk.

Signs You Need Rewiring

Cloth-sheathed cable visible in roof or under house
Black rubber insulation that crumbles when touched
Warm power outlets or switches
RCD trips for no apparent reason
Buzzing or humming from switches
Ceramic fuses in the switchboard
Aluminium wiring (1965-72 homes)

House Rewiring FAQs

How do I know if my house needs rewiring?
Warning signs include cloth-sheathed cable, crumbly black rubber insulation, warm outlets, mystery RCD trips, buzzing switches, ceramic fuses, or aluminium wiring (common in 1965-72 homes). If your house was built before 2000, it's worth an inspection.
How do I get a rewiring quote?
Free on-site inspection required — too much variance to price blind. We assess the existing wiring, identify problem areas, and provide a written quote. We can stage the work to spread the cost over time.
Will I be without power for weeks?
No. We do staged work that keeps most of the house live while we work section by section. You might lose power to one area for a day, but we plan around your needs.
Do I get compliance paperwork?
Yes - Certificate of Electrical Compliance issued at completion. Essential for insurance, sale, and peace of mind.
Can I stage the cost over time?
Yes - we often do wet circuits first (kitchen, laundry, bathrooms), then living areas, then bedrooms. Each stage gets its own compliance documentation.
