Home electrician for Northcote and Thornbury
Ten minutes from the workshop in Preston, and some of the north's best old houses to work on.
Northcote, Thornbury, Fairfield and Alphington. No travel charge.
Know the houses. Know the wiring.
Northcote and Thornbury are full of Victorian and Edwardian houses and Californian bungalows, plus plenty of renovations. Wiring in these homes has often been added to piece by piece over a hundred years, so we check what's behind the walls before quoting, and work carefully around original ceilings, cornices and floorboards.
Most jobs here are tied to renovations: lighting plans for new kitchens and living areas, extra powerpoints, switchboard upgrades so a new kitchen or heat pump doesn't overload an old board, and linked smoke alarms when a bedroom is added.
