Electrician Services in Stafford Heights
From fault finding and safety switches to lighting, power points and switchboard upgrades, our licensed Stafford Heights electricians do it all.
Stafford Heights is a north-western suburb of post-war and former Housing Commission homes on quarter-acre blocks, so ageing switchboard upgrades, safety switches and rewiring make up most of our work. We explain the work and the price before we start, so there are no surprises, and we back our workmanship for life.
Common Electrical Problems in Stafford Heights
Stafford Heights’ post-war and former Housing Commission homes were wired in the 1950s and 60s, so old switchboards, ceramic fuses, undersized supply and brittle wiring are common.
Many homes have never had proper safety switches fitted, and some older boards still sit behind an asbestos panel that must be handled carefully.
Our licensed electricians know Stafford Heights’ post-war homes, upgrading old boards safely, fitting safety switches and rewiring to current standards.
Switchboard Upgrades in Stafford Heights
If your Stafford Heights switchboard still has rewireable ceramic fuses or no safety switches, it is both a fire and a shock risk. Older boards also lack the capacity for modern household loads.
Our licensed electricians assess the board, explain exactly what it needs, and install a modern switchboard sized for your home, fully tested and certified.

Safety Switches and RCDs in Stafford Heights
If your switchboard has no test buttons, you probably have circuit breakers, not safety switches, and breakers do not protect against shock. Many older Stafford Heights homes are in exactly this position.
We install safety switches on power, lighting and appliance circuits, test them on site, and show you how to test them yourself every few months.

Power Points and GPOs in Stafford Heights
Not enough power points, double adaptors everywhere, or a scorched outlet are everyday problems in Stafford Heights homes. Overloaded and damaged power points are a real fire risk.
We install extra power points and USB outlets, replace worn or damaged GPOs, and add dedicated circuits for heavy appliances, all safely and tidily.

House Rewiring in Stafford Heights
If your Stafford Heights home still runs decades-old wiring, struggles with modern appliances, or has had patchy electrical work over the years, a rewire may be the safest long-term fix.
We assess the existing wiring, plan the rewire around how you live, and renew circuits, outlets and the switchboard so everything is safe and compliant.

Old Switchboard Upgrades and Safety Switches
Many Stafford Heights homes still run 1950s-60s boards with ceramic fuses, undersized supply and no safety switches, which is unsafe for modern loads.
We upgrade switchboards, fit safety switches on every circuit, handle any asbestos backing safely, and certify the work.
Rewiring Post-War Homes
Stafford Heights’ post-war homes often run brittle wiring from the original build, well past its service life. Rewiring removes the risk.
We carry out full and partial rewires and fit a modern board with safety switches at the same time.
Power Points, Lighting and Fans
Older Stafford Heights homes often have too few power points and dated lighting for how families live now.
We add power points, LED lighting and ceiling fans, planned around the home.

From Clipsal and HPM to Schneider Electric, Hager, NHP and Legrand switchgear, plus quality LED lighting and ceiling-fan brands, we install trusted electrical products across Stafford Heights.
