Specialist switchboard electricians for apartments, units and high rise living. Safe, compliant work with minimal disruption to you or your neighbours.
Apartments come with their own set of challenges. Boards are often tucked into a hallway cupboard, the meter room is shared, and any power isolation needs to be planned around the people living either side of you. We handle all of it. Our electricians work in everything from 1970s walk ups to modern high rise towers, and we sort out access, timing and compliance before we touch a single circuit.

Apartment electrical work needs a bit more planning than a standard house call. We take care of the access, the paperwork and the neighbours so your upgrade is done properly the first time, without the back and forth.
All switchboard upgrades are completed by fully licensed technicians, meeting Victorian installation standards for safety and compliance.
We inspect your board and quote before any work starts. What we quote is what you pay, with no call out fee when you go ahead and no surprise costs.
We know Melbourne’s apartments and we plan each job around your building’s layout, meter room setup and access rules.
All of our workmanship is backed by a lifetime warranty, so your board keeps protecting your apartment long after we’ve packed up and gone home.
Whether it’s a single unit or the main board serving the whole building, we deliver compliant switchboard solutions designed for apartment wiring, shared infrastructure and modern power demands.
Most apartment boards were installed for a very different era of power use. If yours still runs ceramic fuses or has no safety switches at all, an upgrade brings it up to current standards and gives you the capacity for induction cooktops, reverse cycle heating, dryers and everything else you’re actually plugging in. We fit compact modern boards that sit neatly in existing cupboard spaces, so there’s no need to open up walls.
We work directly with body corporates, owners corporations and building managers on shared switchboards, meter room upgrades and common area circuits. That includes site inspections, written quotes suitable for committee approval, staged works to limit outages and clear communication with residents about when the power will be off.
Safety switches cut the power the instant they detect a fault, which is what protects you from electric shock and electrical fires. Current standards require them across power and lighting circuits, and they’re often a condition of renovation approval. If your apartment board doesn’t have them fitted, we can add them or upgrade the board entirely.
Burning smells, buzzing boards, scorch marks or breakers that won’t stay on are not things to sit on in a building full of people. Our electricians respond quickly across Melbourne, make the board safe and explain exactly what’s needed next, whether that’s a repair on the spot or a full replacement.
