Fit-offs for homes in new estates

By 2025, housing estates had taken up much of the northern and southern parts of the suburb, and 97.6% of occupied homes counted in 2021 were separate houses. If you're building, the fit-off stage is when to settle where power points, data, outdoor lights and switches go, before the walls are closed up. It also pays to leave spare room on the switchboard and a clear cable path to the roof, so solar panels or a home battery can be added later without opening finished ceilings. ASTEC is based in Alkimos, so these jobs are close to home for us.

Air con and car charging for bigger houses

Just over half of occupied dwellings (55.3%) had at least four bedrooms at the 2021 Census, with an average of 3.6. Cooling a house that size usually means a ducted system or split systems in several rooms, and each one needs a suitably sized circuit. Getting around has changed too: the Mitchell Freeway reached Romeo Road in 2023, and the local station on the Yanchep line opened in July 2024. If an electric car is part of your plans, a dedicated charger circuit from the board to the garage lets it charge overnight without competing with the air con.

Rentals and outdoor fittings near the beach

Around 28.3% of homes were rented at the 2021 Census, so plenty of landlords and property managers look after houses here. Between tenancies we can test smoke alarms, confirm that safety switches trip as they should, and replace cracked power points or failed outdoor lights. Because this is a coastal suburb, choose outdoor fittings that are weatherproof and well sealed, and have them looked at now and then. A short written report after each visit gives the agency a record for its files.

Questions we get asked

Can a house being built now be set up for a battery later?

Yes. During the fit-off we can leave spare positions on the switchboard and run conduit from the board to the roof space or an outside wall. With estates filling much of the north and south of the suburb, many owners are at that stage right now, and planning early is far simpler than cutting into finished ceilings later.

I rent out a house near Alkimos station. What should be checked between tenants?

A sensible changeover check covers smoke alarm testing, a safety switch (RCD) test, and a look at power points, light switches and outdoor fittings for damage. Roughly 28% of homes here were rented in 2021, and a written summary with photos helps property managers keep their records in order.
