Home Rewiring Hamilton FAQs
How do I know if my home needs rewiring?
Common signs include flickering lights, blown fuses, outdated fuse boxes, rubber cabling, or frequent power issues. If your home is more than 30 years old and hasn’t been rewired, it’s worth getting a professional inspection.
How much does it cost to rewire a house in Hamilton?
Costs vary based on the size and condition of the home, but typical rewiring projects start from $4,000 to $15,000. We provide free, no-obligation quotes tailored to your property and needs.
Pricing may vary depending on condition and complexity, but we’ll always discuss it upfront.
Do I need to rewire my house when renovating?
Not always, but renovations often reveal outdated or non-compliant wiring. Rewiring during a renovation can reduce costs and avoid future disruption, especially if walls or ceilings are being opened.
Should I upgrade my switchboard during a renovation?
In many cases, yes. Modern appliances and layouts often require RCD protection and increased capacity, which may involve a switchboard upgrade.
Do you handle electrical work for home renovations?
Yes, we specialise in renovation electrical work, including rewiring, switchboard upgrades, lighting, power outlet installation, and more - seamlessly integrated with your builders and timelines.
Is rewiring worth the investment?
Rewiring improves safety, reduces fire risk, increases the value of your home, and allows for modern appliances and technology. It’s often necessary before adding features like solar panels or EV chargers.
