Greystanes is a large, well-established family suburb, predominantly detached brick homes built through the 1950s and 60s. It's genuinely one of the bigger suburbs we cover, with Prospect Creek running through part of the area.
Older Greystanes homes commonly still run ceramic-fuse switchboards, and in some pre-1970s properties we find aluminium wiring, which needs monitoring and can require replacement depending on its condition. Pre-2004 properties can also have an asbestos meter backing board, which needs licensed removal before a switchboard upgrade. For lower-lying properties near Prospect Creek, it's also worth having subfloor wiring checked after heavy rain, since flooding in this pocket can affect switchboards and cabling underneath the house.

It's possible if your home was built before about 1970. Aluminium wiring isn't automatically dangerous, but it needs monitoring and can require partial replacement at connection points depending on its condition. We assess this properly rather than assuming it needs a full rewire.
Yes, if your property sits in a lower-lying part of Greystanes near the creek, flooding can affect subfloor wiring and switchboards even if the damage isn't obvious. It's worth having this checked before assuming everything's fine.
