Homes from the Whitford era

The suburb was gazetted in 1971 as part of the Whitford precinct development, and by the mid-1990s both its north-west and south-west were fully developed. Homes here range from early builds to houses finished in the 1990s. Older switchboards, ceramic fuses and wiring that predates modern safety switches are worth checking before a renovation, a kitchen upgrade or new air con. A switchboard inspection gives you a clear picture before the builder starts.

Owners staying for the long run

At the 2021 Census, 44.8% of homes were owned outright and only 13.5% were rented (the state figure was 27.3%). Long-term owners often put money into the house itself: solar panels and batteries, LED lighting throughout, ceiling fans, upgraded outdoor areas and a switchboard that can handle it all. We can plan the work in stages so it fits your timing, starting with whatever the board needs, then adding each upgrade as you're ready.

Outdoor fittings near the boat harbour

This is a northern coastal suburb, home to the boat harbour built in 1987, Sorrento Quay and the Aquarium of Western Australia. Close to the water, outdoor power points, lights and fans need to be rated weatherproof and well sealed. We fit outdoor gear suited to coastal conditions, and periodic checks catch corrosion on terminals before it causes faults. Homes here are roomy, with 67.8% offering four or more bedrooms, so lighting plans often take in a large outdoor area too.

Questions we get asked

Is it worth upgrading the switchboard in a 1970s or 1980s home?

Usually, yes. Homes from the early Whitford years may have boards with little spare room and no safety switch on some circuits. An upgrade adds RCD protection across the house and makes space for solar, air con or new circuits. We'll inspect yours first and tell you plainly whether it's needed.

Can we add a battery to our existing solar?

In many cases. We check the switchboard, the inverter and space for the battery, then advise whether a hybrid inverter or a separate battery inverter suits. Owners who plan to stay put, as many in Hillarys do, get the most use from stored solar over the years.
