If you’re living in one of Tullamarine’s classic brick veneer homes, you know that nagging worry about outdated wiring all too well. Do your lights flicker when you turn on the air conditioner, or do you have an old ceramic fuse box that seems like a relic from another era? These aren’t just inconveniences, they’re genuine safety concerns for your family. As expert electricians Tullamarine residents trust, Day & Night Electrical understands these challenges intimately. We specialise in bringing peace of mind to families in post-war homes, making sure your electrical system is as safe and reliable as the solid brick walls that surround you.
With standalone houses making up 81.6% of dwellings in Tullamarine, most built during the post-war boom, we have wide-ranging experience with the specific wiring challenges of this era [Source: Australian Bureau of Statistics, 2021 Census]. Our team knows exactly what lurks behind those cream brick walls and how to modernise your home’s electrical system without compromising its character.
Living in a 1970s family home near Melrose Drive or anywhere across Tullamarine comes with its unique electrical challenges. The original switchboards and circuits in these properties were never designed for today’s power-hungry lifestyle. When you’re running the air conditioner, kettle, and oven simultaneously, those tripping circuit breakers aren’t just annoying – they’re your home telling you it needs help.
The flat terrain of Tullamarine, while perfect for family living, can lead to localised water pooling during heavy storms. This makes external power point and switchboard weatherproofing critical for your safety.
That visible ceramic fuse box in your hallway or garage isn’t just an eyesore – it’s a potential hazard. A significant portion of Tullamarine’s housing stock predates modern safety switches and circuit breakers, relying instead on outdated fuse technology that’s far less reliable than today’s standards.
[Give us a call 1300 138 332] to discuss upgrading your old fuse box to a modern, safe switchboard that protects your family.
The functional, modest floor plans of older Tullamarine homes included minimal power outlets, reflecting a very different era. Today’s families need power for home offices, kitchen gadgets, entertainment systems, and countless devices. We understand the frustration of juggling power boards and extension cords just to keep your household running.
At Day & Night Electrical, we don’t just fix problems – we provide complete peace of mind. Our specialisation in modern switchboard upgrades means we replace those outdated fuse boxes with systems that include safety switches, protecting your family from electrical hazards. We know the specific electrical architecture of Tullamarine’s post-war homes inside and out, having worked on hundreds of similar properties throughout the area.
Unlike generic electricians, we understand that your 1970s Tullamarine brick home has specific access points and wiring configurations that require knowledgeable handling. Our switchboard upgrades handle the demands of modern appliances while maintaining compliance with AS/NZS 3000 ‘Wiring Rules’ and all Victorian building codes.
The high demand placed on electrical systems during summer heatwaves puts enormous strain on old switchboards – they’re often the first point of failure when your air conditioning is working overtime. We make sure your upgraded system can handle whatever the Melbourne weather throws at it.
While preserving the character of your classic brick veneer home, we can integrate modern conveniences stress-free. From additional power points strategically placed throughout your home to smart switches that give you better control over your lighting and appliances, we bring your 1960s-80s home into the 21st century.

As Tullamarine has no widespread residential heritage overlays, upgrading your electrical system is straightforward. We manage all compliance requirements, whether your home falls under the City of Hume or Merri-bek City Council jurisdiction. Our wide-ranging experience in both council areas means we handle all the necessary paperwork and confirm full compliance, guaranteeing your upgrade meets all current safety standards.
We’re not just another electrical contractor – we’re specialists who understand the unique challenges of Tullamarine homes. From properties near Melbourne Airport to those along Moonee Ponds Creek, we’ve seen it all. Our team has years of hands-on experience with the specific electrical layouts of the single-storey brick homes that define Tullamarine’s residential streets.
Electrical emergencies don’t wait for business hours. When storm damage affects the power lines or your switchboard fails during a heatwave, you need help immediately. Our 24/7 emergency electricians can reach any Tullamarine address quickly, providing fast services when you need them most.

How do I know if my Tullamarine home needs a switchboard upgrade?
If your home has an old ceramic fuse box, experiences frequent circuit breaker trips, or struggles to power multiple appliances simultaneously, it’s time for an upgrade. Most Tullamarine homes built before the 1990s benefit significantly from modern switchboard installation.
Do you service both Hume and Merri-bek council areas?
Yes, we’re fully licensed to work in both council areas. We understand the specific requirements of each council and handle all compliance documentation, making sure your electrical work meets all local regulations regardless of which side of the council boundary you’re on.
What should I do in an electrical emergency?
First, make sure everyone’s safety by turning off the main power switch if it’s safe to do so. Then call our 24/7 emergency line at 1300 138 332. We’ll dispatch an electrician to your Tullamarine address immediately, any time of day or night.
How long does a typical switchboard upgrade take?
Most switchboard upgrades in Tullamarine’s single-storey brick homes can be completed in 4-6 hours. We’ll provide a specific timeframe during our assessment, based on your home’s particular configuration and requirements.
Why is professional installation important for electrical work?
Professional installation confirms compliance with Australian safety standards, prevents electrical fires, and protects your insurance coverage. DIY electrical work is not only dangerous but also illegal in Victoria. Our licensed electricians provide your family’s safety while maintaining your home’s value.
When it comes to protecting your family home in Tullamarine from electrical hazards, don’t leave anything to chance. Book your switchboard safety check before the summer heatwaves put your old system and air conditioner under dangerous strain. With Day & Night Electrical, you’re choosing electricians who understand exactly what your classic brick veneer home needs to keep your family safe and comfortable for years to come.
