Residential Electrical Wiring Services
Lane Cove's housing stock spans post-war brick homes on established blocks in the original residential areas through to modern medium-density apartment buildings closer to the town centre. The older properties — many built through the 1950s and 1960s — frequently carry original wiring that's past its safe service life, and switchboards that can no longer handle current household loads. Positive Vibes Electrical has 15+ years of rewiring experience across the North Shore, with 100% guaranteed workmanship.
Whether it's a 1950s brick home off Burns Bay Road where the wiring hasn't been reviewed since it was built, a property with a fuse board that can't keep pace with modern load, or a renovation requiring new electrical circuits integrated cleanly with existing systems — each job is assessed properly, scoped honestly, and completed to current Australian Standards.
Note: Lane Cove's proximity to the Lane Cove River means some lower-lying and waterfront properties experience higher humidity that can accelerate corrosion in wiring connections and earthing terminals. A site-specific assessment is worth doing before standard inspection intervals suggest.
Done efficiently and perfectly. I'm very happy that the power is now back on during this awkward period of Christmas rush.

Our Electrical Wiring Services
Residential Wiring Installations
Building a new home, adding a granny flat, or extending an existing property all require electrical systems designed around the actual layout and intended use. We design and install complete wiring solutions — not a one-size approach applied regardless of the property.
Electrical Rewiring for Old Homes
Properties built in the 1950s to 1970s frequently carry original cabling that's now past its safe service life. We assess the full system, replace deteriorating cable and outdated fuse boards, and bring the property to current compliance standard throughout.
Home Electrical Upgrades
An overloaded switchboard or circuits that trip under everyday use aren't just inconvenient — they're a sign the electrical system isn't coping. We identify what's failing and upgrade it properly, without replacing what doesn't need replacing.
Home Renovation Wiring
Renovation projects regularly open up walls that haven't been touched in decades, exposing wiring that needs attention. We work alongside your builder at every stage — rough-in, fit-off, and compliance sign-off — to keep the project on schedule.
Additional Power Points & Lighting
Power points where you actually need them, proper task lighting, and exterior fittings that work for the property — all installed by a licensed electrician and signed off as part of the job rather than added as a separate afterthought.
Home Office & Data Networks
A properly wired home office needs dedicated power circuits and structured data cabling — not a multi-board run from a single domestic outlet. We install purpose-designed setups that perform reliably whether you're on a video call or running multiple screens.
