Electrical Upgrade Costs
Depending on the service you are going with, costs can vary based on your property's size, the condition of your current system, and what needs to be replaced. Getting a complete house rewiring for an average 3 or 4-bedroom house in Melbourne would cost anywhere from $8.000 to $15,000. Commercial rewiring can cost more depending on your building's size and accessibility. Switchboard upgrades or replacements tend to cost $1,500-$3,000 by themselves. Installing additional circuits and powerpoints would range from $150-$400 per room, and lighting installations can cost anywhere from $100-$200 per fixture. These are all estimates in pricing, and getting your entire house rewired would mean the rest of the services are all included. During the assessment, our electrical contractors provide you with itemised quotes to show exactly what is included and give you the breakdown of costs. We don't pressure you to buy or purchase our services. However, our availability is not guaranteed, which is why we follow up with you for a week after a quote has been sent out. Once the quote has been accepted, we then decide on a start date for your job.

FAQs
How often should I have my home's electrical system inspected?
We recommend scheduling a professional electrical inspection at least every five years for residential properties. However, if you notice any unusual electrical behavior, such as flickering lights or tripped circuits, it's essential to have an inspection sooner. Regular inspections help identify potential issues before they become major problems, ensuring the safety and efficiency of your electrical system.
How do I know if I need a full house rewire or just a switchboard upgrade?
Generally, a switchboard upgrade is often necessary if you are adding high-power appliances or if your current board is outdated (e.g., still using ceramic fuses). However, if your home has older rubber or cotton-insulated wiring, a full house rewire is the only way to ensure the entire system can safely handle modern electrical loads. Regardless, know that we always provide a thorough safety inspection to determine which solution is right for your property, so you don't have to worry about making the wrong choice. Give us a call, and we can recommend the right solution forward.
How long does a typical house rewiring project take?
For a standard three-bedroom home, a full rewire generally takes between 3 to 7 days, depending on the accessibility of the wiring and the complexity of the layout. We aim to minimise disruption and will provide a specific timeline after our initial on-site assessment.
Can I add extra power points and new lighting while my house is being rewired?
Absolutely. In fact, a rewiring project is the most cost-effective time to upgrade your home’s functionality. Since we are already accessing the wall cavities and ceiling space, adding modern LED lighting or extra power points in more convenient locations is much simpler and more affordable than doing it as a standalone job by itself. With our service, you can opt for additional power points or lighting upgrades with the house rewire, or get it as its own service by itself.
Will there be a lot of damage to my walls during the rewiring process?
Our experienced electricians use specialised tools and techniques to "fish" wires through existing wall cavities and ceiling spaces whenever possible. This minimises the need for cutting into plaster. If access is restricted and a small opening is required, we will discuss this with you beforehand to ensure you are comfortable with the plan.
