Upgrade Your Powerpoints: Add Safety, Style & Convenience to Your Home
Powerpoints are something we all use every day — but most of us don’t give them a second thought until they stop working or become a safety hazard. If your home has outdated, cracked, or overloaded outlets, it might be time for an upgrade. At Small Spark Contracting, we help Rutherford homeowners modernise their homes with safe, stylish, and more functional powerpoint solutions.
Why Replacing Old Powerpoints Matters
Old or damaged powerpoints aren’t just inconvenient — they can be dangerous. Loose fittings, discolouration, or sparks when plugging in devices are all signs of wear and potential fire risk. Over time, powerpoints can deteriorate from constant use or poor installation, and the risk increases with the number of high-powered devices used in the average home today. Upgrading your powerpoints is a simple yet crucial step in protecting your family and property.
Modern Features for Today’s Lifestyle
Today’s powerpoint options go far beyond the standard double socket. You can now install USB powerpoints for charging phones and tablets directly, eliminating the need for bulky adapters. Some models even include USB-C ports to keep up with the latest devices. Smart powerpoints can be integrated with home automation systems, allowing you to control power via voice commands or smartphone apps. These upgrades add both convenience and functionality to your everyday life.
Improved Safety with New Technology
Upgraded powerpoints come with built-in safety features that help prevent electrical shocks and fires. Modern outlets are designed with better insulation, child-safety shutters, and surge protection. In wet areas like bathrooms and kitchens, we can install weatherproof or splash-proof outlets that comply with Australian safety standards. At Small Spark Contracting, we take safety seriously — and we ensure every outlet we install meets the latest codes and regulations.
Stylish Finishes to Match Your Décor
Powerpoints no longer have to be plain white plastic. There are now a range of modern finishes available — from brushed metal and matte black to glass and timber-look styles — to match your home’s interior design. Whether you're renovating your kitchen, updating your living room, or building new, we can help you choose the right look for each space. It’s the small details that make a big difference in your home’s overall aesthetic.
Add More Outlets Where You Need Them
Running out of outlets is a common frustration in older homes. Extension cords and power boards may seem like a quick fix, but they can become a fire hazard if overloaded. We can safely install additional powerpoints in convenient locations — behind your TV, beside your bed, or in your home office — so you’re never left searching for a place to plug in. More outlets mean fewer cords, less clutter, and better power distribution.
Professional Installation You Can Trust
Installing or upgrading powerpoints is a job for licensed electricians. DIY electrical work is not only illegal in NSW — it’s also extremely dangerous. Our team at Small Spark Contracting is fully qualified, insured, and experienced in all types of residential electrical work. We ensure every powerpoint is installed safely, cleanly, and to the highest standards. No shortcuts — just reliable, honest service from a team you can trust.
Tailored Solutions for Every Room
Different rooms have different needs. Kitchens may benefit from pop-up bench outlets, while bedrooms can have USB charging ports built into bedside outlets. Home offices might require surge-protected powerpoints to protect sensitive electronics. We offer tailored advice and custom solutions for every part of your home. Our goal is to make your spaces not only safer, but smarter and more efficient.
