Why choose Avenir Renovations?
Our electrical renovation services in Brussels
We operate in all types of buildings (single-family homes, apartments, buildings, offices) for partial or total renovations, always in compliance with current Belgian standards.
Electrical compliance
A requirement in case of sale or rental:
- replacement of the electrical panel,
- correct grounding,
- differential protection,
- verification of cable and socket sizes.
We strictly comply with the RGIE (General Regulation on Electrical Installations) and prepare your installation for the final inspection.
Complete renovation of the electrical installation
Ideal during a global renovation:
- creation of separate circuits (lighting, sockets, appliances…),
- installation of recessed or discreet surface wiring,
- installation of modern switches, sockets, and light points,
- adaptation to today's uses (home automation, multimedia…).
Each circuit is identified, labeled, and secured according to current standards.
Adding sockets or specific circuits
To meet new needs:
- equipped kitchen, home cinema, charging station, office,
- controlled or two-way circuits,
- integration into the structure without significant degradation.
This is a common solution in Brussels apartments with concrete walls or low ceilings.
Installation of modern electrical panels
- modular circuit breaker boxes,
- protection against surges and insulation faults,
- integration of home automation (lighting control, shutters, heating…).
We replace old panels that are sometimes dangerous or overloaded.
The 5 steps of an electrical renovation with Avenir Rénovations
Avenir Rénovations inspects, designs, and plans your electrical renovation. Our electricians carry out the work neatly, ensure compliance, and assist you in obtaining the mandatory final certificate.
Why renovate your electrical installation in Brussels?
Renovating the electricity in Brussels ensures safety, legal compliance, adaptation to modern needs (multimedia, appliances) and increases your property's value for resale with a better energy performance certificate.
Old installations can cause short circuits, fires, or electric shocks. A renovation ensures the safety of the occupants.
Any property sold in Brussels must be accompanied by a electrical inspection report less than 25 years old, otherwise the buyer will have to carry out the work.
Homes designed in the 50s to 80s do not accommodate the current power needs (multimedia, appliances, charging stations…). An update is necessary.
A compliant and recent installation is a strong selling point and improves the energy performance rating.

Available grants?
In Brussels, there is no specific grant for electrical renovation. However:

- some municipalities offer occasional local grants,
- modernizing the electrical network is eligible for the PEB (Energy Performance of Buildings).
We assist you in checking the eligibility of your project.

Who controls electrical compliance in Brussels?
The compliance of your electrical installation must be verified by an accredited control body by the Federal Public Service (FPS Economy). This inspection is mandatory after any renovation, compliance adjustment, or new electrical installation.
Among the most well-known organizations in Brussels, we find:
- Vinçotte (now integrated into Kiwa Belgium),
- OCB (Belgian Control Body),
- BTV (Belgian Technical Verification),
- SGS Belgium.
These private companies are authorized to inspect domestic electrical installations and issue a compliance certificate, essential for being compliant during a sale, rental, or inspection.
Avenir Rénovations assists you in preparing for this inspection: we create the mandatory diagrams (single-line plan, position plan), correct regulatory deviations, and plan, if you wish, the visit of the accredited body. You freely choose the provider, but we can also recommend one that will respond most quickly in your municipality.
FAQ – Electrical renovation in Brussels
Do I need to completely cut off the power during the work?
Not necessarily. Our electricians organize interventions by area or circuit to limit outages. In case of complete replacement of the panel, a temporary outage will be planned.
How long does a complete renovation take?
Between 3 and 7 days depending on the area, number of circuits, and accessibility. Small apartments are often completed in 2 to 3 days.
Do I need to redo the walls after the work?
We perform careful work. If the wiring is embedded, grooves are neatly filled. We offer a finishing service (plastering, painting) if you wish.
Can I install home automation?
Yes. We integrate compatible modules (shutters, lighting, heating, alarm…) from the design of the new panel.
Is it mandatory to go through a control?
Yes, any new installation or electrical renovation must be inspected by an accredited body (AIB-Vinçotte, OCB, BTV…) which will issue a compliance certificate.
