Common jobs in an older Mona Vale house
Switchboard upgrades, when the board still has fuses or only one safety switch. NSW Fair Trading recommends a safety switch on every circuit.
An inspection before selling or renovating. A licensed electrician's check finds tired cable, overloaded circuits and missing safety switches before a buyer or builder does.
Going all-electric. Swapping a gas cooktop for induction, or a gas heater for a heat pump, usually means a new circuit and sometimes a bigger board.
