Why is it necessary to rewire a home?

Assessing the condition of your home's electrical rewiring yourself is borderline impossible or extremely challenging since it's usually hidden in walls, floors, and ceilings. This can make it difficult to further determine if your wiring is safe and meets Australian standards. Faulty wiring not only damages your electrical appliances over time, but it also poses a significant safety hazard to your family and your home.

We tend to look for if your home has cotton or rubber insulated wiring as these types of cables were phased out in the 1970s because of their shorter lifespan compared to today's plastic insulated cables. As the wiring deteriorates, it becomes a risk and that is why it's imperative to have it rewired as soon as possible.

As a homeowner, you tend to be quite knowledgeable of your home, hence, we have made a list for you to qualify if you may need a rewire. If you answer yes to any of the following you should contact us to ensure your home's wiring is safe and meets current standards.

  • Your home has single-insulated wiring and steel conduits.
  • The safety switch trips frequently.
  • Your house was built in the 1980s or earlier.
  • There is only one circuit for all your power outlets.
  • Your home has rubber or cotton insulated wires.
  • Socket outlets are overheating.
  • You are renovating and observe the wiring deteriorating or not meeting regulations.

By having your wiring assessed by one of our experienced electricians, you can rest assure that your electrical system is safe and up to standard. Don't wait until it's too late, contact us today to schedule an appointment and keep your home and family safe from electrical hazards.

What is the process and pricing for your home electrical rewiring?

If you decide to upgrade your home electrical rewiring, we will replace all old wiring and renew any power points and switches that require it. During our inspections of the home's wiring, we often discover instances of incomplete or neglectful work, where previous electricians have ignored deteriorating wiring in difficult-to-reach areas. Our team takes pride in conducting thorough and comprehensive rewiring assessment, leaving no dangerous wiring behind. We want our customers to feel confident that their electrical systems are secure and meet Australian standards.

Usually, we will also upgrade the switchboard, replacing old fuses or circuit breakers with individual safety switches. If the switchboard has asbestos backing, we will safely remove and replace it with a new compliant, non-asbestos backing if the client chooses to. Additionally, the earthing may need to be upgraded at this point too which can be discussed. Find out more here about switchboard upgrades

As each home is unique, our electricians will conduct an assessment of your wiring and provide a personalised, obligation-free quote for the necessary repairs. We value your time, your home, and your budget and will provide prompt, reliable and up-front pricing services.

We guarantee a smooth, fast, and stress-free experience, and all of our work is completed to the highest standard. We are so confident in our work that we offer a 10-year workmanship warranty, so you can have absolute peace of mind that it's being done the right way. It's no wonder that over 80% of our work comes from repeat customers.

  • After all of the storms, I came home to find I had no power at all and a fridge/freezer full of food. I called Immediate Electrical and had them on my door step at 9.30 at night, reassuring me that they could help me. I had power on in no time and they came back the next morning to complete the works. Very professional, knowledgeable electricians and their rates are more than reasonable. Highly recommend this company and I will continue to use them.

  • I can’t recommend Immediate Electrical Services highly enough. Prompt, reliable, clean and extremely polite and courteous! I had a number of faults that needed to be resolved including replacing a transformer for a down light, replacing hob lights, replacing the light switch in the bathroom and checking the cabling for faulty data ports. All of the work was completed in a super-efficient and timely manner, and the areas were left clean and tidy. Nothing was too much trouble for the IES team and it was a pleasure to deal with them. Very lucky to have such reliable and trustworthy tradies right on my doorstep.
