Our House Rewiring Services in Georgetown
Full Home Rewires
Complete rewires bring an older cottage's entire electrical system up to current AS/NZS 3000 standards, room by room and circuit by circuit, start to finish.
Partial Rewiring
Where only certain circuits or rooms need attention, we rewire just those sections without disturbing the rest of the home unnecessarily.
Renovation Rewiring
Kitchen, bathroom and extension renovations near Moate Street often expose old wiring that needs upgrading as part of the broader renovation works overall.
Fabric Wiring Replacement
Original fabric-insulated wiring still found in some pre-1940 cottages is replaced with modern, safely rated cable throughout the whole property.
Circuit Additions
Extra dedicated circuits are added for larger ovens, EV chargers, or a home workshop without overloading any of the existing wiring.
Switchboard Coordination
Rewiring is coordinated closely with any needed switchboard work, so the whole electrical system is upgraded to the one standard.
Insulation and Cable Upgrades
Where old cable insulation has degraded over time, we replace it with modern, properly rated cable sized for the circuit's actual load.
Why Rewiring Choice Matters for Georgetown Homes
Georgetown's mix of 1850s-era cottages and mid-century homes means wiring condition varies enormously from house to house, and getting the scope right the first time avoids costly surprises later, here is why the decision matters:
- Original fabric or early PVC wiring in pre-1940 cottages is well past its safe working life
- Cottage renovations regularly uncover wiring that was never meant to carry today's loads
- A partial rewire can address urgent circuits without the cost of a full rewire
- Degraded cable insulation on old circuits is a fire risk worth addressing early
- Compliance to AS/NZS 3000 may be required before a sale or lease
- Workmanship and cable quality vary significantly between electricians
If your home shows flickering lights or overloaded power points across multiple rooms, that is often a sign the wiring itself needs attention, not just the fittings.
Common Rewiring Problems We Fix Across Georgetown
Original wiring from the cottage era
Many of Georgetown's pre-1940 workers' cottages still carry original wiring, now well beyond its intended working life and due for replacement.
Renovation rewires exposing hidden faults
The wave of cottage renovations across the suburb regularly uncovers brittle old wiring behind walls that needs a full rewire, not a patch.
Overloaded circuits from added appliances
Original circuits were never designed for today's appliance mix, and overloaded power points are often the first sign wiring capacity has been outgrown.
Burnt or scorched wiring damage
Degraded insulation on old wiring can lead to a burnt outlet or scorch marks, a clear signal that section needs replacing.
Mixed old and new wiring in the same home
Homes rewired in stages over the years sometimes end up with a patchwork of old and new cable, which we consolidate into one single consistent standard.

Common questions
House Rewiring FAQs
Here is what Georgetown homeowners ask most often about house rewiring, from signs of old wiring through to cost and standards.
How do I know if my home needs a full rewire?
Signs include flickering lights, frequent tripping, fabric-insulated wiring, or a switchboard that still runs ceramic fuses, all common in Georgetown's older cottages.
How much does house rewiring cost?
Every rewire gets a free, fixed quote after an on-site assessment, so you know the full cost before any work begins.
How long does a whole-home rewire take?
A full rewire typically takes several days depending on the home's size and access, and we plan the work to minimise disruption.
Is house rewiring covered by a warranty?
Yes, every rewire we complete is backed by a genuine lifetime labour warranty on the workmanship.
Do I need a partial rewire or a full rewire?
It depends on the home's condition. Some properties only need specific circuits addressed, while others benefit from a complete rewire to current standards.
Why do so many Georgetown cottages need rewiring?
Georgetown's housing dates back to the 1850s workers' cottage era, so a large share of the suburb's original wiring is well past its safe working life.
