Most homes and workplaces have measurable elevated electromagnetic radiation (EMR) levels somewhere, usually around the switchboard, behind bedheads, near old appliances, or running through walls where the original wiring was done without much thought to field cancellation. We test, measure, locate the sources, and rectify the ones that matter. Calm, evidence-based, no scare tactics.
What Is Electromagnetic Radiation (EMR) & Why Does It Matter? Electromagnetic radiation (EMR) and electromagnetic fields (EMFs) are invisible energy waves generated by everyday devices such as power lines, Wi-Fi routers, mobile phones, smart devices and household appliances. It can also exist in your home thanks to sub-standard wiring practices. While EMR is essential for modern living, prolonged exposure can lead to health concerns like: Physical Symptoms: Fatigue, headaches, tingly sensations and disrupted sleep patterns. Mental Challenges: Increased stress levels and difficulty concentrating. Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity (EHS): Severe reactions for individuals who are highly sensitive to EMR exposure. EMF Mitigation is key to creating a safer, healthier environment for your home or workplace.
We've been doing EMR work on the Northern Beaches for years, for families with small children, for people experiencing EHS symptoms, and for clients who simply want their home built or renovated with EMR mitigation as the default. This is rare positioning and we take it seriously without taking it to extremes.

When to call us
- Persistent headaches, sleep issues or fatigue with no clear medical cause
- Household member with diagnosed with unexpected illness
- Bedrooms adjacent to switchboards, meter boxes, solar, battery or major appliance walls
- Children with disturbed sleep or you notice they are always facing the other end of the bed in the morning (Children are known to be more sensitive)
- Older home with two-wire wiring suspected of generating elevated fields
- New build or renovation where you want EMR mitigation designed in from the start
- Workplace assessment for staff wellbeing in offices with high device density
Our process
- On-site Assessment: We use industry-leading electromagnetic radiation meters to detect and measure EMF exposure in homes, offices, and new builds across Sydney and surrounds. This first stage of inspection will take 2-4 hours and will cost between $300-$600.
- Honest Quote: After testing, we provide a detailed EMR report with findings, a customised EMF rectification plan and a detailed quote outlining costs to reduce EMR to an acceptable level.
- The Fix: EMR issues often require multiple classes of trades to address electrical currents entering your home or building. On approval of the quote, we handle the entire process for you. After work is completed, the site is retested.
- Aftercare: We guide you on how to maintain low EMR exposure, providing expert advice for continued health benefits. We are also always available to discuss any concerns you have.
Why choose Electrix all Blew
We're a family-run electrical business based in Bilgola Plateau. Over 38+ years on the Northern Beaches means we know the housing stock - weatherboard home, 1980s solid bricks, strata buildings - and what tends to fail in each.
We're licensed for electrical and air conditioning. We carry full public liability and contractor insurance. We turn up when we say we will, we call ahead when we're 20 minutes out, and we hold to 1-hour appointment windows.
Our 113 Google reviews sit at a 5.0 average. That's the result of doing the work properly the first time, not chasing reviews.
Frequently asked
What causes EMR?
EMR is produced in different ways. Some are due to unbalanced electrical currents, which in turn create Electromagnetic Fields, or these fields can come from power lines, appliances, communication devices, and even poor wiring practices from unknowing electricians.
What are the common sources of EMR in homes and offices?
EMR is typically generated by sub-standard electrical wiring practices, but can also come from Wi-Fi routers, mobile devices, computers, other appliances and power lines.
Am I crazy to worry about EMR?
Not at all. Concern for EMR exposure is valid, especially for those experiencing symptoms. Addressing EMR issues can lead to better sleep, improved focus, and overall well-being. Like allergies, some people are affected by it, others aren't, but if you have any concerns, reach out. Better to be safe than sorry.
How does EMR affect human health?
Prolonged exposure can lead to headaches, fatigue, disrupted sleep, and stress/anxiety symptoms. Individuals with electromagnetic hypersensitivity (EHS) may experience more severe effects.
Are EMR issues easily fixed?
Yes, many EMR issues can be resolved with proper assessments and adjustments to electrical wiring, grounding, and pipework rectification.
