Upgrading Boondall homes for modern living
Boondall is a settled northside suburb, bordered by the Boondall Wetlands and home to the Brisbane Entertainment Centre. Most of its homes are brick and timber family houses built from the 1970s and 1980s, many with pools, patios and sheds added over the years.
These homes are solid, but their electrical systems are now forty or more years old. We regularly find original switchboards with limited safety switch protection, halogen downlights, too few power points and outdoor circuits affected by moisture. Families are also adding air conditioning, solar, batteries and electric vehicles, which puts extra demand on an ageing installation.
We look at the whole house, explain what needs doing now and what can wait, and give you a fixed price before starting. Many Boondall homes are rentals too, and we help landlords stay compliant.

Boondall electrician FAQs
Is my 1970s Boondall switchboard safe?
It may still work, but boards of that age often lack full safety switch protection and spare capacity. We will inspect it and tell you whether an upgrade is needed.
My garden lights trip the power when it rains. Can you fix it?
Yes. Water is usually getting into an outdoor fitting, junction or cable. We find the fault and repair it so the circuit stays on.
Can you run power to my shed?
Yes. We install a properly sized cable and, where needed, a small sub-board with safety switch protection in the shed.
Can I add solar and a battery to my current board?
Many older boards need upgrading first. We will check yours and give you a fixed price for anything required.
Will I get a fixed price?
Yes. We confirm the price before starting.
Is your work guaranteed?
Yes. All of our workmanship carries a lifetime guarantee, and every job is tested and certified before we leave.
