Mains power arrived in 1954
Mains electricity reached the 16 Mile Peg on Wanneroo Road on 23 June 1954, and the government townsite was gazetted back in 1907 under the spelling Wanneru. In an area with that much history, it's worth knowing when your own wiring was last updated before you renovate. We inspect the switchboard, test the circuits and look for older cabling, then explain whether a board upgrade or a partial rewire is the right step.

Townhouses and smaller households
Not all homes here are large family houses: 10.2% were semi-detached houses or townhouses in 2021, and households averaged 2.5 people. Smaller homes still benefit from good electrical planning, such as efficient LED lighting, well-placed power points, a split system in the main living area and safety switches on every circuit. Boards in attached homes are sometimes tucked into tight spaces, so we confirm there's room before adding anything new.
Long-held homes and practical upgrades
At the 2021 Census, 30.1% of homes were owned outright, and residents had a median age of 41. Owners who've been in place a while often turn to solar, batteries and lighting upgrades, along with tidying up old outdoor wiring around sheds and patios. Homes averaged 3.5 bedrooms, and 51.5% had four or more. Doing the switchboard first gives every later job a solid base and avoids pulling apart recent work. We'll map the order out with you before starting.

Questions we get asked
My house is older. How do I know if the wiring needs replacing?
Warning signs include frequent trips, warm or discoloured power points, flickering lights and an old fuse board. Mains power reached the 16 Mile Peg back in 1954, so wiring in the area can vary a lot in age. An inspection with insulation testing gives you a clear answer.
Can a townhouse get solar and a battery?
Often, if there's suitable roof space and room near the switchboard. With 10.2% of Wanneroo homes being townhouses or semi-detached in 2021, layouts vary. We check roof access, board capacity and any shared arrangements first, then explain what will fit.
