Safe, Compliant Residential Electrical Rewiring in Knysna
Many classic homes in Knysna, Leisure Isle, and Belvidere still rely on aging rubber-insulated wiring, outdated ceramic fuses, or ungrounded circuits that pose severe fire and shock risks.
The Restorers specializes in safely rewiring existing homes with zero or minimal damage to your interior plaster and timber finishes. We replace brittle, hazardous cables with SABS-approved, PVC-insulated copper conductors, install modern earth-leakage units, and modernize your entire distribution board.
Built for High Modern Power Demands & Coastal Safety
Modern homes with induction hobs, air conditioning, pool heat pumps, and inverter/solar systems demand safe, balanced circuits. We rewire heritage homes, timber houses, and coastal villas across Leisure Isle, The Heads, Belvidere, Old Place, Simola, and Pezula, providing clean channel conduits and full SANS 10142 compliance certification.
Complete Wire Upgrades: We replace old, deteriorated rubber-insulated wires with safe, modern SABS PVC-coated copper cables.
Conduit & DB Rebuilding: We route cables through protective PVC wall conduits and install clean, modern DB boards with safety breakers.
Certified COC Compliance: All rewiring jobs are fully tested and certified with an official electrical Certificate of Compliance.
Our Rewiring Process
We coordinate rewiring room-by-room, minimizing disruption to your home while ensuring all work meets SANS 10142 codes.
System Audit & Plan
We inspect your home's current wiring, map circuit loads, plan layout positions for new plugs/switches, and isolate power.
Cable Draw & Conduit Route
We remove old wiring, lay down fire-rated PVC conduits inside walls and roofs, and feed through new copper cables.
DB Board & Outlet Fit
We wire the distribution board with circuit breakers, earth leakage relays, and mount new plug sockets and switches.
Testing & Certification
We run polarity, earth loop impedance, and insulation tests before restoring power and issuing the electrical COC.
