Electrical work for Thornbury’s mix of homes
Thornbury has a real mix of housing. At the 2021 Census, just over half of its occupied dwellings were separate houses. The rest were split fairly evenly between townhouses, terraces and semi-detached homes, and flats and apartments.
Darebin’s heritage study records that much of Thornbury was subdivided during the 1880s land boom and built up through the early 1900s and the 1920s. Shops, cafés and services line High Street and St Georges Road, and both centres are now part of the Victorian Government’s Activity Centres Program.
What that means for electrical work
Older houses being renovated: switchboard upgrades, safety switches and new circuits before kitchens and bathrooms go in
Townhouses and apartments: LED lighting, extra power and data points, and EV chargers where the building allows
Shops and cafés on High Street and St Georges Road: fit-outs, lighting upgrades and ongoing maintenance

Common questions
Do you work on older houses in Thornbury?
Yes. Many Thornbury houses date from the early 1900s and the 1920s. We upgrade older switchboards, add safety switches (RCDs), add new circuits and rewire as part of renovations.
