DM Electrical works Beacon Hill constantly. We are five minutes down the hill at Brookvale and most of our renovation clients up here are dealing with the same 1960s switchboard and wiring story. We have the Level 2 ASP licence in-house so a single team can handle the whole job from the pole to the powerpoint.
Beacon Hill's post-war housing stock is the reason we run so much residential electrician work here. Full and partial rewires, switchboard upgrades with proper RCBO protection, and the safety switch retrofits that any 1960s home should have done by now. Major renovations and second-storey additions almost always trigger a Level 2 ASP mains upgrade, which we handle without subcontracting. As the suburb's families increasingly go electric, EV charger installation has become one of our most-booked services. And we always assess whether the existing supply can actually carry the new load before committing to a charger model.
A textbook 1950s-60s red-brick family suburb on elevated streets and short no-through roads, with original 550-800sqm blocks now seeing significant renovations, second-storey additions and the occasional knockdown-rebuild.

They are not necessarily dangerous if maintained, but they almost never have RCDs and rarely meet current standards, which means a real shock or fire risk if a fault occurs. An upgrade is one of the highest-value safety jobs you can do.
Most full board upgrades land between $1,800 and $3,500 depending on the number of circuits, whether the mains need replacing and whether Ausgrid metering work is required. We provide fixed quotes after a site visit.
Yes. We are accredited Level 2 ASPs so the same team handles the service mains, the meter and the internal switchboard. No waiting on a separate contractor.
Yes. We install dedicated circuits, isolators and switchboard capacity for ducted and split systems, and coordinate directly with your aircon installer.
Yes. 7KW single-phase chargers are the most common in Beacon Hill, but where three-phase is available we install 22kW chargers as well, with proper load management.

Many insurers are tightening on this. Claims can be reduced or denied if the wiring or board is found to be non-compliant. An upgrade with a CCEW is the cleanest fix.
