Plenty of homes around Corio still run ceramic fuses or a board with no safety switches. Upgrading is one of the most worthwhile electrical jobs you can do.
An upgrade is not just a new box on the wall. We test the circuits, fix what the old board was hiding, label everything properly and certify the work.
Most Corio switchboard upgrades are done in a day, with the power off for part of it. We give you the window up front so you can plan around it.
Replacing old fuses with RCDs and circuit breakers so a fault cuts the power instead of going through someone.
Overloaded circuits, shared neutrals and undersized boards are the usual causes. We find it rather than just reset it.
Adding capacity for air conditioning, an EV charger, a granny flat or a renovation at your Corio property.
We replace the old board with a modern enclosure, fit RCDs and breakers, label every circuit and test the lot. You get a certificate of electrical safety when we are finished, which matters if you ever sell or insure the place.
Sometimes the board is the symptom, not the problem. If the wiring behind it is perished or the earthing is not up to scratch, we will tell you honestly rather than bolting a shiny new board onto old faults.
