05 / BEFORE WE GET STARTED
A few local questions.
Clear answers.
Do you service my part of Altona North?
Yes. We work right across Altona North (VIC 3025), up to the borders with Altona, Newport and Spotswood. Include your street in the enquiry so we can confirm the booking details.
I rent out a property in Altona North. What electrical checks does it need?
Victorian rental providers must arrange an electrical safety check at least every two years, and smoke alarms need to be tested every year. About 31% of Altona North's households rent (about 1,440 homes at the 2021 Census), so we can work with you or your agent on access and provide the written report.
Can I have an EV charger installed at my Altona North home?
Usually, yes. 69% of homes in Altona North are separate houses and 50% of households run two or more cars, so a wall charger in a garage, carport or driveway is common. We check the switchboard, supply and cable route before confirming the installation.
My Altona North home is older. Should the switchboard be checked?
It is worth checking before adding major load such as air conditioning, an induction cooktop or an EV charger. Older boards can have rewireable fuses or circuits without safety-switch protection. We assess the board and explain what, if anything, needs to change.
What should I send for a quote?
Tell us what you want changed, your street in Altona North and any access details. If you have chosen a fitting or appliance, include the model. Photos are optional; there is no need to remove electrical covers.
