Residential Electrical Services
From switchboard upgrades to full rewires, our A-Grade licensed electricians deliver safe, compliant electrical work across Melbourne. Fully insured with a workmanship warranty on every job.
Residential electrical work across metropolitan Melbourne: switchboard upgrades, rewiring, lighting, power points, new builds and renovations. A full rewire of a three-bedroom home typically runs $8,000-$15,000 depending on access and the age of the property. If your switchboard still has ceramic fuses or no safety switches, it needs replacing before you add solar, EV charging or air conditioning. Every job comes with a Certificate of Electrical Safety lodged with Energy Safe Victoria.
