About Kew East

Established homes, often renovated

Two in three occupied dwellings in Kew East are separate houses, and four in ten are owned outright (ABS 2021).

In established homes the electrical work usually comes with a renovation: new bathroom and kitchen circuits, lighting layouts and a switchboard that can carry the extra load.

What that means for electrical work

Bathroom electrical

Bathroom renovations need circuits for heating, exhaust, lighting and heated towel rails, planned before tiling. We rough in early and fit off once the room is finished.

FAQ

Common questions

Can you wire heated towel rails and bathroom fans?

Yes. We wire heated towel rails, exhaust fans and heat, fan and light units as part of bathroom upgrades and renovations.

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.

How do I know if my switchboard needs upgrading?

Common signs are old rewireable fuses, no safety switches (RCDs), circuits that trip often, or no room for new circuits. We inspect the board and quote the upgrade.

Can you replace old halogen downlights with LED?

Yes. We replace old halogen downlights and their transformers with LED fittings, which also removes a common source of heat in the ceiling.
