About Balwyn

Houses, townhouses and long-term owners

Almost six in ten occupied dwellings in Balwyn are separate houses and a quarter are townhouses or semi-detached homes. More than four in ten are owned outright (ABS 2021).

Owners renovating or rebuilding often want lighting that works inside and out, with the switchboard and circuits to support it.

58.5% Separate houses
26.0% Townhouses, terraces & semi-detached
15.1% Flats & apartments
42.2% Owned outright

FAQ

FAQs

What outdoor lighting can you install?

Step lights, path lights, garden spikes, uplights and wall lights, wired on their own circuit with switching or timers.

Can you do the electrical for my renovation?

Yes. We handle renovation electrical from rough-in to fit-off, and because Task Trades also runs plumbing and construction, trades can be coordinated.

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.

Do you install EV chargers?

Yes. We install wall-mounted EV chargers on their own circuit with isolation, after checking the switchboard and supply can take the load.
