Our House Rewiring Services in Metford
Full Home Rewires
Complete rewiring replaces every circuit in the home, bringing ageing 1980s and 1990s wiring up to current AS/NZS 3000 safety standards throughout.
Partial Rewiring
Where only certain rooms or circuits need attention, we rewire those sections without disturbing the rest of the home unnecessarily.
Renovation Rewiring
Extensions and renovations get new circuits planned in from the start, adding capacity for new rooms, appliances, and outlets.
Additional Circuit Installs
Dedicated circuits for a home workshop, large oven, or other heavy appliance are added carefully without overloading the rest of the home's existing wiring.
Old Wiring Removal
Outdated cabling, including any remaining original 1980s wiring, is safely removed and replaced as part of the rewiring scope.
Switchboard Coordination
Rewiring is coordinated with a new or upgraded switchboard so the circuits and the board work together as one properly matched system.
Why Rewiring Choice Matters for Metford Homes
Deciding whether to rewire, and choosing the right licensed electrician for it, matters given Metford's stock of homes from the 1980s to 2000s subdivision boom around the railway station:
- Original wiring from the earliest subdivision era is approaching the end of its safe, rated service life
- Renovations expose walls and ceilings, making it the easiest time to rewire
- Adding a home workshop, solar, or extra circuits often requires updated wiring capacity
- Insurance and compliance to AS/NZS 3000 can hinge on wiring condition
- Workmanship and cable quality vary significantly between installers
- A planned rewire avoids the disruption of an unplanned failure later on
If your current wiring is already showing strain, that often shows up first as overloaded power points or a board needing switchboard upgrades.
Common Rewiring Problems We Fix Across Metford
Homes across Metford's 1980s to 2000s subdivision growth share a familiar set of wiring issues, and these are the ones our team encounters most often on site:
Original 1980s and 1990s wiring
Homes built through Metford's early subdivision boom around Tennyson Street and Bedford Street often still run original cabling that is due for replacement as it ages.
Undersized circuits for modern load
Circuits designed decades ago rarely support today's mix of appliances, a home workshop, or an EV charger without a proper upgrade.
Renovation and extension gaps
Homes extended without a matching wiring upgrade often end up with new rooms drawing on an already-stretched original circuit.
Deteriorating insulation on old cables
Ageing cable insulation can crack or degrade over time, raising the risk of a fault or a dangerous short circuit.
Insufficient circuits for growing households
Families adding appliances over the years often outgrow the original circuit design, leading to nuisance tripping.
Mixed old and new wiring
Homes rewired in stages over the years sometimes end up with mismatched cabling types, which we consolidate into one consistent, compliant system.

Common questions
House Rewiring FAQs
Here is what Metford homeowners most often ask us about full and partial house rewiring, timing, and cost.
How do I know if my Metford home needs rewiring?
Signs include frequent tripping, an old switchboard with ceramic fuses, discoloured switches, or wiring dating from the original 1980s to 1990s construction era.
How long does a full house rewire take?
A full rewire typically takes several days to a week depending on the home's size and access, and we plan the work to genuinely minimise disruption.
Do I need to move out during a rewire?
Most homeowners can stay during a partial rewire, though a full whole-home rewire may require power to be off for parts of each working day.
How much does house rewiring cost?
Every rewire gets a free, fixed upfront quote after an on-site assessment, since cost depends on the home's size and its existing wiring condition.
Can rewiring be done alongside a renovation?
Yes, renovations are the ideal time to rewire since walls and ceilings are already open, letting us add circuits and outlets with minimal extra disruption or cost.
Is house rewiring covered by a warranty?
Every rewire we complete is backed by our lifetime labour warranty, so the workmanship is covered for as long as you own the home, guaranteed.
