Norwood is one of Adelaide’s liveliest eastern suburbs, centred around the iconic Parade shopping and dining precinct. The suburb features a wonderful mix of heritage stone homes, renovated character properties, and modern infill developments, each with distinct electrical requirements — from careful rewiring of period homes to complete electrical fit-outs for new builds.
Jake services both residential and commercial clients throughout Norwood. Whether you’re a homeowner needing a switchboard upgrade in a character cottage on Beulah Road, a landlord requiring safety compliance for a rental property, or a business owner on The Parade needing lighting or data cabling, First Class Electrical & Data delivers reliable, quality work.
Heritage home rewiring is a core part of my work in Norwood, where so many properties date from the Federation and Edwardian eras. These beautiful old homes deserve an electrician who understands how to run new wiring sympathetically — tracing existing ceiling voids, avoiding damage to original cornices and plaster, and leaving the home looking like we were never there.
Shop fit-out electrical work on and around The Parade is something I get called to regularly. Whether it’s a new cafe opening, a retail refurbishment, or a heritage shopfront being converted to a modern tenancy, I handle the full electrical scope: new switchboards, circuit installation, LED lighting to match the fit-out brief, data cabling for POS systems, and all safety compliance for the handover.
Switchboard upgrades for character homes are in constant demand across Norwood. Many of the ornate workers’ cottages and larger villas between The Parade and the Kensington border are running on switchboards that simply weren’t designed for reverse-cycle air conditioning, induction cooktops, and multiple circuits. I upgrade these properly — new board, safety switches, and a correct circuit layout going forward.
Outdoor entertaining lighting is a popular upgrade for Norwood homeowners who’ve renovated their rear yards. From low-voltage LED strip lighting along pergola beams, to waterproof downlights in alfresco areas, to feature lighting in garden beds — I design and install outdoor lighting that makes Norwood backyards usable and welcoming well into the evening. Kensington clients just over the border can access the same service.
