The new board is the centrepiece of the upgrade. Once the old panel is stripped out and the modern unit with circuit breakers and RCDs is mounted, the wiring is reconnected, each circuit is tested and labelled, and a compliance certificate completes the job.
Any burning or scorched smell near the board is a serious warning that demands immediate attention. That odour can signal overheating behind the panel where you cannot see it. Having a licensed electrician inspect it without delay is essential.
Pricing reflects the genuine scope of the upgrade, taking in board condition, circuit numbers, and the safety switches or surge protection involved. Any rewiring or asbestos handling is part of the figure. Our inspection comes with no callout fee and the quote we give you is free.
Our electricians are fully licensed professionals carrying the insurance needed to protect your property throughout the job. Each installation is brought up to current Australian standards and documented with a certificate of compliance. We also back our labour for life.
A common misunderstanding is that a tripping breaker already keeps you safe from shock, but the two devices do different jobs. A safety switch specifically targets the leakage that puts people at risk. We install both so the wiring and the people are properly protected.
A common home switchboard upgrade is usually a few hours to about a day. Where the work permits we deliver same-day service for your convenience. The actual power-off period is only a small part of the total time.
Our service area is generous, spanning the local area, the surrounding suburbs and a good portion of the wider region. If you want to be sure about your spot, just get in touch and we will confirm it for you without any fuss.
The safest outcome with an old asbestos board comes from proper removal procedures carried out by qualified people. We manage the entire process for you and replace the panel with a modern compliant switchboard.
Our after-hours and weekend cover is part of a full 24/7 emergency service for urgent electrical faults. Should you notice sparking, smoke, or a switchboard that will not reset, ring us without delay. If you can safely reach the main switch, turn it off, and our licensed team will handle the rest.
Our installations are completed to the latest safety standards and certified once testing confirms they are sound. The certificate of compliance is yours, and the workmanship is covered by a lifetime labour guarantee.
