Servicing Fairfield & surrounding areas

Darebin’s heritage study records that Federation-style housing spread through Northcote, Fairfield and parts of Thornbury before the First World War, and Fairfield Station on the Heidelberg line dates from 1888. The Fairfield Village activity centre takes in parts of Station Street, Wingrove Street and Railway Place, and is covered by a Heritage Overlay.

Older homes like these can still have original wiring or switchboards without safety switches. We check what’s there before quoting upgrades, rewires or new circuits.

FAQ

Common questions

Can you upgrade the switchboard in an older Fairfield home?

Yes. We replace older switchboards, add safety switches (RCDs) and check the existing circuits before quoting.

Will a rewire damage period features?

We plan cable routes to limit disturbance to ceilings, cornices and walls, and discuss any patching needed before we start.

Do you work on shops in Fairfield Village?

Yes. We handle lighting, power, emergency and exit lighting and maintenance for shops and offices, and can plan around trading hours.
