Residential Electrical Wiring Services
Longueville is a tightly-held peninsula suburb overlooking the Lane Cove River, its streets lined with large established homes that carry the character only decades of ownership produce — and the electrical challenges that come with it. Pre-war and post-war homes on long blocks frequently retain original wiring, undersized switchboards, and earthing arrangements that haven't been verified in years. Positive Vibes Electrical has 15+ years of rewiring experience across the Lower North Shore, with 100% guaranteed workmanship and upfront pricing.
Whether it's a period home on River Road with rubber-insulated cabling in walls that haven't been opened since the 1940s, a waterfront property where switchboard connections show signs of moisture damage, or a full renovation that needs new electrical infrastructure designed and installed from scratch — the job is assessed properly before work begins and completed to current Australian Standards.
Note: Properties backing onto the Lane Cove River and those in lower-lying parts of Longueville experience elevated humidity that can accelerate corrosion in switchboard enclosures and earthing systems. These components should be inspected as part of any rewiring assessment on waterfront and near-waterfront homes.
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
New Build & Extension Wiring
New homes, rear extensions, and dual occupancy builds in this area all need wiring systems designed for the local environment. We specify materials suited to coastal conditions and install complete systems built to last in salt-influenced air.
Older Property Rewiring
Homes near the coast age differently — salt air works on wiring insulation and cable terminations in ways that aren't visible until something fails. We strip out deteriorating systems and replace them with cable and fittings specified for the local environment.
Electrical System Upgrades
Undersized switchboards, circuits that trip under everyday load, and earthing systems that haven't been checked in years are all common in coastal properties. We assess the full picture and upgrade what needs it, signing off everything to current Australian Standards.
Wiring for Home Renovations
Renovations in coastal suburbs often reveal wiring that's been quietly failing behind the walls. We coordinate electrical work at every stage, including rough-in, fit-off, and the compliance certificate your builder needs before the build is complete.
Extra Power Points & Lighting
Additional power points in the kitchen or living areas, improved exterior lighting, or weatherproof fittings for a waterfront deck — installed to the correct specification for a coastal location and positioned where they're genuinely useful.
Data Cabling & Home Office
Reliable data connectivity in a coastal property needs to be properly wired — not dependent on a signal booster or an improvised cable run. We install structured ethernet and dedicated power circuits for home office setups that perform reliably.
