If your home’s wiring is more than a few decades old, chances are it’s not keeping up with the demands of modern life. Old, outdated electrical systems aren’t just frustrating — they can be dangerous. At Bucks Electrical, we specialise in house rewiring for homes across Sydney’s Eastern Suburbs, upgrading systems with care, precision, and minimal disruption.
Whether you’re renovating, experiencing ongoing electrical issues, or just want to future-proof your home, a full or partial rewire is one of the smartest investments you can make.
Older homes — and there are plenty of them in areas like Randwick, Paddington, Coogee and beyond — were wired for a very different world. A couple of lights, a fridge, maybe a TV. Fast forward to now, and your average home is powering smart devices, air conditioning, entertainment systems, EV chargers and much more — all of which put far more strain on the system.
Worn or outdated wiring can become brittle, overloaded, or poorly connected, increasing the risk of electrical fires, shocks, and power outages. Rewiring replaces unsafe or inefficient cabling with new, compliant materials and gives your entire electrical system a fresh, safe start.
We start with a full assessment of your current system. That includes looking at your switchboard, the condition of your existing wiring, how your home is laid out, and how power is used in each space. From there, we design a plan that meets today’s standards — and more importantly, suits your lifestyle.
Every job is carefully planned to minimise disruption. We understand that rewiring sounds like a big job (and sometimes it is), but with the right team, it doesn’t need to be stressful. We work room by room, protect your furniture and flooring, and always communicate clearly about timelines, costs, and what to expect each day.
Whether it’s a full rewire or just a few high-risk areas that need attention, we’ll give you honest advice and deliver quality workmanship you can count on.
There’s no single “right” time to rewire, but there are some clear warning signs that it’s needed. If you’re experiencing flickering lights, warm switches or power points, tripping circuits, or you’ve noticed old cotton or rubber-insulated cables behind the walls — it’s time to act. Even if things seem fine on the surface, outdated systems often hide risks you can’t see.
Rewiring is also a smart move if you’re doing major renovations, adding air conditioning, or increasing your home’s energy load. It’s far easier (and more cost-effective) to rewire during building works than after the plaster goes back on.
Every rewire is different depending on the home, but generally we replace all electrical wiring throughout the property, upgrade the switchboard, and install new power points, light switches, and safety switches where needed. We also take the opportunity to improve placement — so you’re not stuck with a single power point behind the fridge or old switches in awkward spots.
If you’ve got plans for future upgrades — like solar panels, battery storage, or an EV charger — we can prepare your wiring now to support those systems later on.
We’ve rewired everything from century-old terraces to post-war brick homes and sleek architect-designed builds. We know the unique challenges that come with Eastern Suburbs properties, and we come prepared to handle them with care and confidence.
Our team works cleanly, respectfully, and efficiently. We treat your home like it’s our own, and we never cut corners — because your safety, comfort, and peace of mind are what matter most.
Whether you’re looking for a full overhaul or just want an expert opinion on your existing system, we’re here to help. Bucks Electrical offers honest, reliable house rewiring services for homes across Sydney’s Eastern Suburbs — with fair pricing, quality materials, and a team that genuinely cares about getting it right.
