Living in a solid brick veneer home near Eastland or along Heatherdale Road comes with unique electrical challenges. Your post-war Ringwood home was built to last, but its original wiring wasn’t designed for modern families with multiple devices, home offices, and high-draw appliances. At Day & Night Electrical, we specialise in making Ringwood’s classic homes safe and functional for 21st-century living.
With over half of Ringwood’s private dwellings being separate houses, many built in the post-war era, we have extensive experience addressing the specific electrical challenges of this ageing housing stock. Whether you’re dealing with flickering lights when the air conditioner starts, constant power trips, or concerns about outdated fuse boxes, our licensed electricians understand exactly what your home needs.
Ringwood’s established neighbourhoods showcase beautiful examples of 1960s weatherboard houses and 1970s brick homes. While these properties offer solid construction and leafy surroundings near Ringwood Lake Park, their electrical systems often struggle with modern demands. Our electricians regularly encounter these specific issues in homes throughout the area:
All our work in Ringwood homes strictly adheres to the Maroondah Planning Scheme and AS/NZS 3000 wiring rules, making sure of full compliance and safety. [Give us a call 1300 138 332] to discuss how we can address your home’s specific electrical challenges.
The ceramic fuse boxes common in Ringwood’s 1970s brick homes pose real safety risks. Without modern RCD safety switches, these outdated systems can’t protect your family from electric shock. We frequently find original wiring showing signs of deterioration.
Modern switchboards aren’t just about meeting today’s power demands – they’re about protecting your family and valuable electronics. Our switchboard upgrade service is specifically designed for Ringwood’s housing stock, addressing the unique challenges of retrofitting modern electrical safety into established homes.
A new switchboard with RCD safety switches provides:
Our industry experts handle every aspect of the upgrade, from initial assessment to final testing. We understand the specific load issues and wiring configurations common in Ringwood’s older homes, providing your upgrade is custom to your property’s needs, not just a generic service.
Ringwood’s beautiful tree-lined streets create a unique electrical challenge. During summer storms, branches can hit power lines, causing dangerous surges that damage expensive electronics. We install whole-home surge protection systems that safeguard your devices against these common local hazards.
