House Rewiring Grafton
Cloth-insulated, VIR or aluminium wiring hiding behind the walls? We rewire older homes across Grafton and South Grafton - from full house rewires to targeted room-by-room jobs - done to AS/NZS 3000 with minimal damage to your walls and ceilings.
Six ways we handle your rewire.
From full house rewires to targeted room-by-room jobs, with low-damage access.
VIR & Cloth-Insulated Cable Replacement
Many pre-1960s Grafton homes still have Vulcanised India Rubber or cloth-insulated cable behind the walls. This insulation cracks and crumbles with age, exposing bare wire, and needs replacing rather than patching.
Aluminium Wiring Replacement
Aluminium wiring suffers from a phenomenon called 'creep', where the metal slowly deforms under the pressure of terminals over time, loosening connections and causing overheating. We replace it with modern copper wiring.
Full House Rewires
A full rewire of a standard 3-bedroom home typically takes around 5 to 10 working days, depending on the house's construction and access. We plan the job to keep your home as liveable as possible throughout.
Partial & Room-by-Room Rewires
Not every home needs a full rewire straight away. Where it makes sense, we can rewire room by room or target the specific circuits that are actually causing problems.
Low-Damage Ceiling & Wall Access
For Queenslanders and older timber homes especially, we use low-damage access techniques to run new cabling with as little cutting into walls and ceilings as possible.
Rewire Compliance Certificates & Insurance Support
Insurers often apply higher premiums or exclusions on homes with old VIR or aluminium wiring. A completed rewire comes with full compliance certification, which can help when discussing cover with your insurer.

House rewiring, straight answers.
Warning signs, timeframes, and what to expect during the job.
The clearest signs are visible cloth or rubber-insulated cable in the roof space, frequent tripped circuits, warm power points or switches, or knowing your home has aluminium wiring from the 1960s-70s. If you're unsure, we can inspect and give you a straight answer.
