About MillerCo

Electrical That Keeps Your Build Moving

Renovation electrical happens in two stages. The rough-in goes in while the walls are open, and the fit-off happens near the end once linings, cabinetry and finishes are done. Get the first stage wrong and moving a circuit later means opening up finished plaster.

We have been doing this alongside builders across Melbourne’s eastern suburbs for over 15 years. Kitchens, bathrooms, lighting, powerpoints, switchboards, data and new circuits, all run to your plans and sequenced around the other trades.

Getting Your Renovation Wired the Way You Want It

A renovation is the one chance to have the electrical exactly how you want it, and we like being involved early enough to make that happen. Over 15 years working alongside builders and homeowners across Melbourne's east, from a single room through to a whole house.

We work to your programme, we turn up when the frame is ready, and we come back on time for the fit-off. Small, family-run and licensed. Get in touch today for a free quote.

    We had Sam fit out an ensuite and bedroom renovation for us. His suggestions helped to elevate our renovation with LED strip lighting and premium products. His team were very professional, tidy and respectful of the place and communicated well. Will definitely use them again for future jobs.

Asked Questions

Renovation Electrical Questions

  • Twice, usually. The rough-in goes in once the frame is up and before the plaster, and the fit-off happens near the end once cabinetry and linings are done. We work to your builder’s programme.

  • Either. A lot of our work comes through builders directly, and we also deal straight with homeowners who are managing their own renovation. Whichever suits, we will coordinate around the other trades.

  • Often, yes. Adding circuits for a new kitchen, bathroom or extension frequently needs board capacity that is not there. We check at quoting so it is in the price rather than a surprise halfway through. See switchboard upgrades.

  • We can talk through downlight layouts, pendants, and where feature or strip lighting will actually work, and we will flag anything that needs to be decided before the cabinetry is built.

  • We run data wiring, antenna and camera cabling as part of the same rough-in. It is far cheaper to do it while the walls are open than to retrofit afterwards.

  • Yes. Extensions mean new circuits and often a new sub-board, plus tying the new work into the existing wiring. Where that existing wiring needs attention we tell you at quoting.

Renovation and Extension Electrical Across Melbourne’s East

The Rough-In

This is the stage that decides what the finished house can do. Every circuit, switch drop, light point, powerpoint and data run gets cabled while the frame is open.

It is worth spending time on the plan here. Walking the open frame and marking where the bed goes, which side the fridge opens, and where you will actually want a switch takes an hour and saves a lot of regret.

The Fit-Off

Once the plaster, cabinetry and finishes are in, we come back and fit the switches, outlets, fittings and the board, then test and commission everything.

This stage is quick when the rough-in was done properly, which is the whole argument for getting the first stage right.

Kitchens and Bathrooms

These two rooms carry most of the electrical load in a renovation. Kitchens need dedicated circuits for the oven and cooktop, plenty of bench outlets, under-cabinet lighting and often an induction upgrade the old board cannot carry.

Bathrooms need proper separation, exhaust that actually clears moisture, heating, and mirror or vanity lighting that is placed to be useful rather than decorative.

Custom and Feature Work

The details that make a renovation look finished are usually electrical. Strip lighting under a benchtop, backlighting behind a panel, lit shelving in a trophy cabinet or display joinery.

All of it has to be cabled before the joinery is installed, with somewhere accessible for drivers to live.
