What we do in Wooloowin
Timber character homes around Wooloowin often mix original wiring with later additions, each done to a different standard. Circuits are tested and insulation condition checked before new points are added, with rewiring recommended where it is needed. High ceilings and VJ walls need care when running new cable, so routes are planned to keep the timber finish intact.
Houses built in Wooloowin after the war usually started with a small switchboard and a handful of circuits. A board upgrade with safety switches on every circuit usually comes before any bigger electrical change.

Electrical questions from Wooloowin
Can you install an EV charger at my Wooloowin home?
Yes. We check your switchboard and supply capacity, run a dedicated circuit and mount the charger where it suits your parking.
Do you install ceiling fans in Wooloowin?
Yes. We fix fans to solid framing, check ceiling height for blade clearance and wire them to a suitable switch or controller.
Is it safe to add circuits to an older Wooloowin house?
Usually, once the existing wiring and protection have been checked. If a circuit isn’t suitable, we explain what needs to change first.
Is my Wooloowin 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.
