Have you just moved into a new home, or are you looking to sell? Perhaps a new family member, a new job, or a change in priorities has shifted your outlook
Maybe you’re looking to add a new room, extension or simply uplift existing parts of your house like everyone’s favourite room, the kitchen.
If your life has changed, you might need to update your home as well. If you’re looking to refresh your space, you’ll often need significant electrical work.
That’s where we come in.
As always, there’s a bunch of legal, financial, and stylistic considerations before you get started.

Whether you’re doing a DIY job or you’re planning to bring in the pros, if you’re in Sutherland, there are NSW laws and regulations you should be aware of.
First, you need to understand what approvals you might need. Depending on the scope of your renovations, this might require the nod from certain neighbours.
You should have a firm idea of your budget by this point.
Then, you’ll need to plan your build and put together a list of the builders and tradespeople you’ll need.
Depending on what you’re planning to do, you might also need to consider:
This will depend greatly on the size and scope of the job, including:
● How big is the job?
● How many rooms do you need uplifted?
● How complex is the job?
How many different contractors do you need to involve? The electrical part of the home renovation will usually range from $800 to $8,500, depending on the size and complexity of the job
The electrical work for renovating a new house might cost anywhere from $1,000 to $4,000, while rewiring an existing house might range from $3,500 to $8,000.
However, renovating an entire room (not just the electrical work) is obviously much more expensive. It could cost anywhere from $10,000 to $150,000 in total. If you’d like a quote for your home renovation
If it’s just small changes, like adding a few new outlets, some basic rewiring or installing LED lights, it should take less than a week.
For bigger projects, like redoing all the wiring or upgrading the entire electrical system, it can take several weeks or even months to complete.
The timeline might also depend on the progress of other tradespeople, like builders, who are involved in the renovation.
As always, this will depend on what exactly you’re hoping to achieve.
The kitchen is often considered the heart of any home so it tends to get special attention, and is the first room to be renovated.
Because kitchen’s usually contain more complex electrical systems than other rooms in the home, they can be trickier to renovate, which is why it’s so important to speak to a professional and make sure the work done in your home’s heart is top quality.
If you’re looking to have your home renovated in Sutherland, Cronulla, Miranda or any of the surrounding areas, you should be looking to use a leading and experienced electrical service provider.
You shouldn’t take chances with installing complex electrical systems, especially not with such an important project that has so many moving parts you want the installation work done by a master security technician the installer shouldn’t be an apprentice, cheap labour, or uncle Joe.
They should be fully licensed, qualified and insured.
