Time to Rewire Your Property in Newcastle?

Flickering lights? Buzzing outlets? If your home still runs on outdated wiring or has an old fuse box, it’s not just inefficient, it’s unsafe. Kitson Electricians Newcastle provide full or partial rewiring that improves safety, performance, and peace of mind.

What we do

Our Switchboard Services in Newcastle

Whether you’re renovating, upgrading for compliance, or adding high-load appliances, here’s how we make your electrical system safer, smarter, and up to standard:

Full House Rewiring

Older homes often have wiring that no longer meets safety codes. We replace all existing circuits with new, compliant cabling, ideal for homes built before the 1980s or those with signs of wear or electrical faults.

Partial Rewiring

Only need certain areas upgraded? We offer localised rewiring for kitchens, bathrooms, extensions, or where faults have occurred, fast, clean, and minimally invasive.

Renovation Rewiring

If you smell smoke, see scorch marks, or your power keeps cutting out, call us. We offer 24/7 emergency repairs across Newcastle for overheated, damaged, or unsafe boards.

Switchboard Upgrades

Rewiring often includes upgrading your switchboard to safely manage modern appliances and power use. We integrate safety switches, surge protection, and 3-phase capacity if needed.

Compliance Rewiring

Selling or leasing? We rewire to meet Australian electrical standards and provide full documentation for compliance, real estate listings, or tenancy handovers.

Replace Wiring

Types of Wiring We Replace

Not all wiring is safe. Here’s what we often find (and replace) in Newcastle homes:

VIR Cabling

Vulcanised Indian Rubber wiring was common until the 1950s. It breaks down over time, creating fire hazards and insulation issues.

Cloth-Insulated Wiring

Used in homes up to the early 70s, this wiring degrades easily and poses significant fire risks when exposed to heat or moisture.

Earth-Free Lighting

Older lighting circuits without an earth wire increase shock risk and make it impossible to install compliant fittings.

DIY or Unlicensed Wiring

Non-compliant wiring from past owners or unlicensed work is both dangerous and illegal. We bring it up to code the right way.

  • Frequent tripping breakers
  • Two-prong (non-earthed) sockets
  • House built before 1970
