West Leederville
Electrician

West Leederville is Buetec's second home area. Nuno does a lot of work here, and it is about 30 minutes from our Clarkson base outside peak hour. We know the streets and the kind of homes here well, and we plan every job around the fact that a house this old rarely has wiring that matches what you can see.

What we see in West Leederville homes

West Leederville was mostly subdivided before 1903 and was well built up by 1925. That makes it one of the oldest suburbs we work in, and many of the Federation and 1920s homes are still standing, most of them renovated at some point.

The renovation often stopped at the plaster. Behind a modern kitchen there can be rubber insulated cable, wiring that has been added to by different people over a century, and a board with ceramic fuses and no safety switches.

That is why rewires come up often in homes this old. Replacing old cable while a renovation has the walls and ceilings open is far easier and cheaper than doing it later. We also upgrade switchboards so every power and lighting circuit is protected by safety switches, which WA requires before a home is sold or leased.

Close to the city, many owners are adding home offices, air conditioning and EV chargers to houses never designed for them, so we check supply capacity and consumer mains before adding big loads.

If you are buying here, an electrical inspection before settlement is worth it. It tells you whether the house needs a board upgrade or a full rewire, so it goes into your budget rather than coming as a surprise.
