Northern Beaches switchboard upgrades

Is your switchboard holding your home back? Upgrade it safely, once.

Old fuse boxes and overloaded switchboards are a common safety risk in older Northern Beaches homes. We replace them with modern switchboards and safety switches, sized for the air conditioning, induction cooking and appliances your family uses today.

Power tripping again? Your switchboard might be telling you something.

Constant tripping

Power cutting out when the oven, kettle and aircon are running at the same time.

Old fuses, no safety switches

Ceramic fuses and missing safety switches are common in older homes and offer little protection for your family.

No room to grow

Planning aircon, an induction cooktop or a renovation? An old board often can't take the extra load.

We inspect your existing board, wiring and supply, then give you clear, fixed-price options to choose from.

Questions

Good to know before you book.

Still unsure? Call or text 0468 000 950 and we'll talk it through.

How do I know if my switchboard needs upgrading?

Common signs are ceramic fuses, frequent tripping, no safety switches, scorch marks or a buzzing board, or plans to add aircon or major appliances. We'll check it at your inspection.

Will our power be off all day?

The power needs to be off while the board is changed. We'll tell you how long when we quote, and book a time that works around your family.

Do I need an upgrade before installing air conditioning?

Not always. We'll check whether your board and supply can handle the extra load, and include any upgrade needed in your options.

Do you provide a compliance certificate?

Yes. We provide a Certificate of Compliance for Electrical Work (CCEW) for all relevant work, as required in NSW.

Which suburbs do you cover?

All of the Northern Beaches from Manly to Palm Beach, plus Mosman, Cremorne, Neutral Bay, Frenchs Forest, Belrose, Davidson and Terrey Hills.
