Jesse was happy with their Electricians job
“I couldn’t be happier with the work Brenden did at my place. From the start he was very responsive, communicated well and followed through on promises. I was able to talk though what I was trying to achieve and he was able to help provide options and make recommendations on better ways to achieve the desired outcome. I received a quote the next day that was itemized and easy to understand making the decision easy. As far as the quality of the work and flexibility with change goes, I can’t see it getting any better. Any requests I had to add or change things were all handled with no problems and I was very impressed with the runs that he was able to do with such minimal cutting into the walls.“

Find a electrician the easy way
What do electrician services include?
If you thought that electricians only deal in powerpoints and downlights, you might be surprised by the different electrical services available. From more common repairs to 24/7 emergencies, smart homes and whole home rewiring projects, let’s take a look at our most popular local electrician jobs.
Renovations
Electricians are crucial to any renovation project, especially if you’re doing structural work that involves installing new wiring, powerpoints and lighting. The most common home renovations that need an electrician include kitchens and bathrooms.
In a bathroom renovation or remodel you will need powerpoints as well as lighting, and other fixtures that need power to function, like a heated towel rail. In a kitchen reno, you will need enough powerpoints for all your appliances, including a dishwasher, fridge and freezer.
New home installations
If you are building a new home an electrician will be an essential tradie to budget for. Besides wiring each room for powerpoints, switches and lighting they will also need to install a switchboard.
The first step is roughing in all the lines, and connecting your new home to service wiring - typically after the plumbing rough-in. Wiring is then connected to switches. The entire process can take up to 10 days depending on the number of electricians working, and the size of your job.
24/7 emergencies
24/7 emergency electricians are there to come to the rescue when you have an after-hours electrical problem. Common problems in the home include fuses blowing due to a faulty appliance, flickering lights and sparking coming from a faulty powerpoint - hopefully never a fire.
Needless to say you should never try to resolve any of these issues yourself, but call a local licensed electrician. They have the training and tools to resolve the issue so you, your family and home are safe. Not all electricians offer a 24/7 emergency service, so it’s best to confirm this beforehand when you contact them.
Lighting
Lighting is essential to modern life, which means an electrician is crucial to any lighting project you have in the home. Firstly, in Australia any electrical work needs to be carried out by a licensed sparkie, secondly you can put yourself in danger by trying to install or repair your own lighting.
The most common lighting jobs are for lighting installation, especially for renovations and new builds. Other popular lighting jobs include installing LED lighting, security lighting around the exterior of a home or outdoor lighting in a decked area or around a swimming pool.
Electrical repairs & rewiring
Definitely one of the most common call outs for electricians, electrical repairs can sometimes be serious and even mean you calling a 24/7 emergency electrician after-hours.
Some of the most common electrical problems include tripped circuit breakers, fuses blowing due to a faulty appliance, flickering lights and sparking coming from a faulty powerpoint.
After investigating your electrician may even recommend rewiring as the only safe way to fix your problem, especially in older homes with outdated wiring and switchboards.
Safety switches, powerpoints and switchboards
Electricians can also help you with solving problems involving safety switches, powerpoints and switchboards.
Safety switches - or RCDs (Residual Current Device) - are one of the most important electrical components in your home as it reduces the risk of electric shock by switching the electricity current off immediately if there is a leakage from the circuit. These are housed on your switchboard, which distributes power to different parts of your home.
Fuses or circuit breakers on a switchboard protect your electrical circuits from spikes or overloading, including appliances plugged into powerpoints.
Home automation
If, like almost two-thirds of Australian households you’re looking to make the move to a smart home, you’ll need an electrician to help make this a reality. Integrated security systems, HVAC climate control, blind and curtain control and remote access are all jobs that an electrician can help with. All this can be managed via a central controller, app or device for maximum convenience and efficiency.
Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS)
If you’re worried about surges in power damaging your devices and appliances, then speak to a sparkie about installing a UPS or Uninterruptible Power Supply. This is a backup battery that serves two main functions, it helps to protect against electrical surges that occur from lightning strikes, or if the power goes out in your home or local area. The other useful function is that it allows you to keep power to your modem and computer, or even charge your phone.
Rewiring
If you have an older property chances are it could need rewiring, and the only person who can help is a licensed electrician. Older heritage homes like worker’s cottages, terraces and Queensander homes also often have outdated wiring which can not cope with the amount of current being drawn by all the appliances and devices that are part of modern life.
Your electrician may also recommend you upgrade your switchboard or electrical panel, which will have all the necessary safety switches, RCD’s, and circuit breakers.
