If you live in one of the thousands of family homes built in Taylors Hill in the late 1900 with the Overnewton Estate, you’re likely experiencing the growing pains of an electrical system that wasn’t designed for today’s power demands. As the trusted electricians in Taylors Hill, Day & Night Electrical understands the unique challenges facing local families – from circuit breakers that trip every summer to insufficient power points for modern family life.
With two thirds of households being families with children, well above the Victorian average, we know that family safety is the number one priority in Taylors Hill. That’s why we specialise in upgrading and maintaining the electrical systems in the brick veneer project homes that make up the vast majority of this vibrant community.
The original switchboards installed in early Taylors Hill homes were not designed for the heavy, continuous load of modern air conditioning units during a heatwave. This is why so many local families face frustrating power outages just when they need cooling the most. Our knowledgeable team has worked extensively on these specific housing types, from estates near Kororoit Creek to homes closer to Watervale Shopping Centre.
Your 20-year-old switchboard was built for a different era. Today’s family homes run multiple air conditioners, computers, tablets, gaming consoles, and kitchen appliances simultaneously – a load that original electrical infrastructure simply wasn’t designed to handle. We conduct extensive safety audits and switchboard upgrades, replacing outdated components with modern RCBO safety switches to protect your family from electrical shock and fire.
To keep costs down, project homes of this era were built with the minimum number of outlets, which is inadequate for a 2024 family’s device usage. Walking through any Taylors Hill home, you’ll likely see power boards daisy-chained together – a clear safety hazard that we can eliminate with strategically placed additional power points.

The basic electrical infrastructure from 15-25 years ago lacks the capacity and modern safety features required for renewable energy and high-load EV charging installations. As more Taylors Hill families look to solar panels and electric vehicles, upgrading your electrical system isn’t just about today’s needs – it’s about preparing for tomorrow.
Before installing solar panels on your Taylors Hill home, your switchboard needs the capacity to handle bi-directional power flow. We make sure that all upgrades meet City of Melton regulations and the latest Australian Standards (AS/NZS 3000), protecting both your investment and your insurance validity.
Electric vehicle ownership is rapidly growing in family-focused suburbs like Taylors Hill. However, charging an EV requires significant electrical capacity that your original home wiring likely can’t provide safely. Our team specialises in upgrading electrical systems to support high-load EV charging while maintaining household power stability.
Unlike generic electricians, we’ve worked extensively on Taylors Hill project homes. We know their common wiring layouts and specific failure points, allowing us to perform upgrades efficiently and cost-effectively. Whether you live near Taylors Hill Recreation Reserve or in the estates along Kororoit Creek, our team understands the exact electrical challenges your home faces.
All our electrical work in Taylors Hill is fully compliant with City of Melton regulations and the latest Australian Standards (AS/NZS 3000), making sure your home is safe and your insurance is valid. With over 20 years of experience and a team of fully licensed electricians (REC33579), we bring both in-field experience and local knowledge to every job.
The uniformity of the housing stock in Taylors Hill means we have developed a highly efficient process for upgrades, saving residents time and money. We understand that as a family-focused community, minimising disruption to your daily routine is crucial.

Our 24/7 availability means we’re here when you need us most – especially during those summer heatwaves when your ageing electrical system is under maximum stress. As specialists in future-proofing the exact type of home that makes up 96.7% of Taylors Hill’s housing stock, we offer:
Your home’s switchboard is its electrical heart. Upgrading from old ceramic fuses or basic circuit breakers to modern RCBOs provides individual circuit protection, dramatically improving your family’s safety. Book a pre-summer switchboard safety check before the first heatwave puts your home at risk.
Stop relying on dangerous power board arrangements. We install additional power points exactly where your family needs them – bedrooms for device charging, home offices for computers, and living areas for entertainment systems.
Make sure your smoke alarms meet current Australian safety standards. We install interconnected smoke alarms that provide whole-house protection, giving your family critical extra seconds in an emergency.
Modern families deserve modern services. We help Taylors Hill residents integrate smart switches, automated lighting, and energy monitoring systems that work stress-free with your upgraded electrical infrastructure.
