Rewiring Works Across Wollongong & the Illawarra
Old wiring is one of the most common causes of electrical faults and house fires. We assess thoroughly, quote upfront, and get the job done properly.
When Your Wiring Needs More Than a Patch
A lot of Illawarra homes were built in the 1960s through 1980s — and many still have the original wiring. That wiring was fine for its time, but it wasn’t designed for today’s power loads, appliances, or safety standards. Whether you’re renovating, buying an older home, or you’ve noticed flickering lights and tripping breakers, a rewire might be exactly what’s needed. We do partial rewires — targeting specific areas or circuits — and full house rewires where the whole system needs replacing. We’ll tell you honestly which one applies to your situation.
What You Get With LHN Electrical
Upfront Pricing
Rewiring jobs vary in scope, so we assess thoroughly before quoting. You get a fixed price before any work starts — no open-ended hourly billing.
Aluminium Wiring Experience
Many older Illawarra homes have aluminium wiring, which poses real risks if it's deteriorated or joined incorrectly. We know how to handle it safely and bring your system up to current standards.
Switchboard Upgrades Handled Together
A rewire often goes hand-in-hand with a switchboard replacement. We handle both, so you're not coordinating multiple tradies or leaving part of the job incomplete.
Fully Licensed and Insured
All rewiring work is carried out by a licensed NSW electrician. Compliance certificates are issued where required, and all work meets Australian standards.
How a Rewiring Job Works
Assessment
We inspect your existing wiring — checking the switchboard, circuits, visible cabling, and any known problem areas. We identify what needs replacing and what can stay.
Fixed Quote
You receive a clear, written quote covering all the work scoped. No hourly rate surprises once the walls are open.
Scheduled Works
We book the job at a time that suits you. For larger rewires in occupied homes, we work in stages where possible to minimise disruption and time without power.
Compliance and Sign-Off
Once complete, we issue the required compliance certificates, test and label all circuits, and walk you through what was done.
