Switchboard Upgrades

Protect your heritage home with a modern, safe switchboard. Expert upgrades for Fremantle's character properties.

Switchboard Safety

Modern Protection for
Heritage Homes

Many of Fremantle's beautiful heritage homes still have original switchboards with ceramic fuses and no safety switches. While they may have served well for decades, they don't meet modern safety standards and can't handle today's electrical demands.

We specialise in upgrading switchboards in character homes, taking care to work around heritage features and ensuring the installation is neat and compliant.
