FAQ

FAQs

Can you rewire an old workers’ cottage?

Yes. We plan routes through roof and floor spaces, replace the old wiring and fit a new switchboard with safety switches.

Can shop electrical work be done around trading hours?

Where the job allows, we schedule noisy or disruptive work before opening or after close.

What electrical work can I do in a strata building?

Work inside your own apartment is usually straightforward. Anything on common property, risers or shared boards generally needs the owners corporation to agree first.
