Houses, units and plenty of renovations
Glen Iris spans two council areas, Boroondara and Stonnington. More than half of its occupied dwellings are separate houses and more than a quarter are apartments or units (ABS 2021).
Extensions and renovations to established houses usually need extra circuits, which is often when an older switchboard gets upgraded.

Answers before you call
Can you wire a new extension to an older house?
Yes. We check the existing switchboard can take the new circuits, then rough in and fit off the extension to your plans.
Do you install garden and entertaining-area lighting?
Yes. Deck, path and garden lighting with outdoor-rated fittings, switched from inside or on a timer.
Can my home charge an electric car?
Most homes can. We check the switchboard and supply, then recommend the charger circuit that suits.
