The first job is taking out the dated panel, often an old ceramic fuse setup, and replacing it with a current board fitted with circuit breakers and RCDs. Each circuit is then reconnected, individually tested and labelled before a compliance certificate is handed over.
Where a board predates safety switches and modern breakers entirely, it represents the older style of electrical protection that newer standards have moved well beyond. Such panels respond more slowly and offer less safeguarding. An inspection by a licensed electrician will show what is required.
The final cost reflects the condition and size of the existing board, the number of circuits, and the protective devices like surge protection you decide to include. Any rewiring or asbestos handling is part of the assessment. We charge no callout fee for the visit and give you a free written quote.
Licensing and insurance are non-negotiable for our business, so every electrician you deal with holds both. Work is carried out to Australian standards and certified on completion. A lifetime labour guarantee comes standard with every switchboard upgrade we do.
Adding safety switches to a board you already have is usually straightforward for a licensed electrician. We check which circuits need cover, install the units and confirm every one responds the way it should under test.
Most domestic upgrades are wrapped up in a few hours to around a day. Where the board and circuits are uncomplicated we frequently offer same-day service. The time your power is actually off is kept to a short, planned window.
Across the local area and the nearby suburbs, our team is out on switchboard jobs all the time. We also cover the wider region, so if your address is a bit further out, just ask and we will confirm whether we can get to you.
We have handled plenty of older boards built with asbestos backing material, and we know exactly how to manage them safely. The whole process is carried out by qualified people using the correct procedures, with no risk left for you to deal with.
We offer genuine 24/7 emergency cover for switchboard failures, including overnight and on public holidays. Sparks, smoke, a burning smell, and repeated tripping are clear signals to act fast. Isolate the power at the main switch if you safely can, then call us straight away.
We do not cut corners on compliance, so the finished board satisfies all current safety standards. A certificate of electrical compliance is provided, and our lifetime labour guarantee covers the workmanship for life.
