- Ceiling fans and exhaust fans
- Switchboard upgrades and safety switches
- Smoke alarm installation and compliance

All work is completed to current Australian Standards, with clear explanations so you understand what’s been done and why.
Switchboard Upgrades and Electrical Safety
Switchboards are a common concern in Oxley homes, particularly those that have undergone multiple renovations or still rely on older components. An outdated switchboard can increase the risk of electrical faults, nuisance tripping or unsafe operation.
We inspect and upgrade switchboards to:
- Improve protection against electrical faults
- Support increased power usage
- Install or upgrade safety switches (RCDs)
- Replace worn or outdated components
- Bring systems up to current compliance standards
Upgrading your switchboard is one of the most effective ways to improve safety and reliability throughout the entire home.
Electrical Inspections and Fault Finding in Oxley
If you’re experiencing flickering lights, tripping circuits or unexplained power issues, a professional inspection can identify the root cause before it becomes a bigger problem.
We carry out electrical inspections for:
- Ongoing or intermittent faults
- Pre-purchase peace of mind
- Post-storm or flood-related checks
- Renovation planning
- Insurance and compliance requirements
Our inspections focus on identifying hidden risks, such as deteriorated wiring or overloaded circuits, not just surface-level symptoms.
Outdoor Electrical and Older Properties
Many Oxley homes feature outdoor living areas, sheds and detached structures that require safe, weather-resistant electrical installations. Exposure to moisture and changing ground conditions can affect outdoor wiring over time.
We install and maintain:
- Outdoor lighting and garden lighting
- Weatherproof power points
- Security and sensor lighting
- Electrical supply to sheds and garages
- Wiring for outdoor entertaining areas
All outdoor electrical work is designed to suit Oxley’s conditions and meet strict safety requirements.
