Questions we’re often asked
Can you work inside my apartment or unit?
Yes. We handle lighting, power, data and repairs inside the unit. Work on common property or shared switchboards usually needs owners corporation approval first.
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.
When should a switchboard be upgraded?
Before a renovation, when adding big appliances or air conditioning, or when the board has old fuses and no RCD protection. A photo of the board is a good starting point.
I’m renting. Can I book an electrician?
Yes. Most electrical work needs the owner’s approval, so we can quote to you or directly to your landlord or agent.
