From minor repairs to major installations, our team handles the full range of residential and commercial electrical work across the Fitzroy North area.
Replace outdated fuse boards with modern safety switch panels. Many Fitzroy North homes built in the 1870s through 1910s still run old wiring that can't handle today's electrical demands. We bring everything up to current Australian standards.
Tripping circuits, flickering lights, and dead power points need proper diagnosis. We use advanced testing equipment to trace electrical faults quickly and get your power back to normal, often in a single visit.
LED downlights, outdoor security lighting, pendant lights, garden lighting, and smart systems. We design and install lighting that suits your space, cuts energy costs, and improves visibility around your property.
Complete and partial rewires for older Fitzroy North properties. If your home has original wiring from when the suburb was developed, it may not be rated for modern appliances. We rewire safely with minimal disruption.
Pre-purchase inspections, landlord compliance checks, and routine safety audits. We test your switchboard, wiring, smoke alarms, and safety switches, then provide a detailed report with recommended actions.
Level 2 home charging stations installed by qualified electricians. We assess your switchboard capacity, run a dedicated circuit, and mount the unit. Compatible with Tesla, BYD, MG, and all other EV brands.
Victorian law requires interconnected photoelectric smoke alarms in all bedrooms and hallways. We install, test, and certify compliant systems for homeowners, landlords, and property managers in Fitzroy North.
