FAQs
How do I know if my Mascot home needs a full electrical rewire?
Typical indicators include frequently tripping circuit-breakers, flickering lights, warm or discoloured power points, the presence of old VIR or cotton-insulated wiring, a switchboard without safety switches, and renovations that expose outdated cabling. Homes built before the mid-1980s in Mascot may still contain wiring that no longer meets current Australian Standards (AS/NZS 3000). A licensed electrician can perform an inspection and insulation resistance test to confirm whether a complete rewire is the safest option.
What is involved in a whole-home rewire and how long does it take?
A rewire replaces every circuit in your property—lighting, power, appliance, and earthing—back to the switchboard. The process generally follows these steps: (1) site assessment and detailed quote; (2) isolation of the existing supply; (3) removal of old cables, sockets, and fittings; (4) installation of new TPS cabling, safety-switch-protected circuits, and upgraded earthing; (5) fitting of new switches, GPOs, and lighting points; (6) switchboard upgrade and meter reconnection; and (7) electrical safety certificate and compliance lodgement. For an average three-bedroom Mascot house, work typically takes 3–5 days, but larger or double-storey homes may require up to two weeks.
Can I stay in my house during the rewire?
Yes, many Mascot residents choose to stay on-site. We schedule the work so that at least one lighting and power circuit is available after hours, and we can provide temporary power boards for essential appliances. However, expect daytime outages, some ceiling or wall access panels, and limited use of specific rooms while wiring is installed. If you work from home or have medical equipment, we recommend arranging alternative accommodation or off-site workspace for the main cutting-in days to minimise disruption.
How much does a full rewire cost in Mascot?
Pricing depends on house size, accessibility (roof space, wall type), number of circuits, and switchboard upgrades. As a guide, a small two-bedroom unit starts from around $6,000–$8,000, while a four-bedroom freestanding home may range from $12,000–$20,000. Heritage properties with lath-and-plaster walls or limited roof cavity access can be higher. We provide a fixed-price written quote after a free on-site assessment, so you know the exact investment before work begins.
Will the new wiring comply with current Australian standards and council requirements?
Absolutely. All work is carried out by our fully licensed and insured Level 2 electricians, using AS/NZS 5000.2-compliant TPS cable, RCD-protected circuits, and MEN earthing. We lodge a Certificate of Compliance for Electrical Work (CCEW) with NSW Fair Trading and supply you with a copy for your records. If your rewire forms part of a development application or council inspection, we coordinate directly with Building Certifiers and Ausgrid to ensure every stage is signed off.
Do you offer any warranty or after-sales support on rewiring projects?
Yes. We stand behind our workmanship with a lifetime labour warranty and a 25-year manufacturer’s warranty on cable and switchgear components. After completion, we perform a complimentary 12-month safety check to confirm all terminations remain tight and RCDs trip within the required 300 ms. Should you experience any issue, our Mascot-based emergency team is on call 24/7 and will prioritise warranty calls at no cost to you.
