Epping mixes Federation and interwar homes on its older streets with a fast-growing cluster of apartments around the station. Those two housing types need very different electrical work, and we handle both.

Many of the Federation and interwar houses through Epping still run wiring installed decades ago, often with ceramic fuses rather than a modern switchboard and no residual current devices fitted. The common signs are fuses that blow when a couple of appliances run together, powerpoints that are scarce enough that extension leads are doing permanent work, and light switches that feel warm. A switchboard upgrade with safety switches is usually the first job, followed by rewiring where the original cabling has gone brittle.
The high-density development around Epping station means a large share of local jobs are in apartments, where the work is as much about access and approvals as the wiring itself. Common property, building rules and switchboard access all shape how a job runs. Typical requests are LED downlight upgrades, appliance installation for new kitchens, and data cabling for people working from home.
Epping’s older housing stock sees steady renovation work, and electrical is one of the first trades in and one of the last out. Rewiring during a renovation is far cheaper than retrofitting afterwards, and it is the right moment to add circuits, plan lighting and get the switchboard sized for what the house will actually draw once the work is finished.
Do I need a switchboard upgrade before I renovate?
Usually yes. If the board still uses ceramic fuses or has no safety switches, upgrading first means the new circuits have somewhere compliant to land.
Can you work in an apartment without strata approval?
Work inside your own lot is generally fine. Anything touching common property or the building’s main switchboard normally needs strata sign-off, and we will tell you which category your job falls into before we start.
