What we do in Kingston

Post-war highsets in Kingston were wired for a few lights and power points, not for today’s kitchens, air conditioners and home offices. Built-in lower levels need their own lighting, power points and interconnected smoke alarms. Upgrading the switchboard with RCD safety switches is often the first step before adding new circuits.

Not every Kingston street is the same. 1970s and 80s brick homes in Kingston often have a switchboard with rewireable fuses or only one safety switch. Boards are upgraded to modern breakers and RCDs, then power points are added where the household needs them.

Common electrical work jobs in Kingston

• Electrical safety inspections for homes and rentals

Electrical questions from Kingston

Can my Kingston switchboard handle an EV charger?

Often it can, but we check the supply and board first. The charger then goes on its own circuit with suitable protection.

What are Queensland’s smoke alarm rules?

Queensland requires interconnected photoelectric smoke alarms in every bedroom, in hallways connecting bedrooms to the rest of the home, and on every storey. All homes must comply by 1 January 2027.

Are your electricians licensed?

Yes. Electrical work is done under Queensland Electrical Contractor Licence 91748, and the company also holds QBCC licence 15409163.

Is my Kingston switchboard safe?

If there are ceramic fuses, no RCDs or regular tripping, it is worth having it checked. We test the board and explain any upgrade before work starts.
