Just completed an additional 8.8kw solar upgrade & 40kw Sigenergy Battery install with the team from Col Grove. This system is also connected to the 8kva generator if no sun & no grid supply.

I have used Col Grove Electrical for a number of issues with properties I manage. They have always provided timely, efficient and provide quality service. My most recent job required them to return three times as the product (sensor light) which I purchased proved faulty as did the next two replacements. They turned up each time and did a great job helping me.

Joel and Harry did a fair amount of installation work for us. Very pleasant guys who had endless patience with my constant mind changes! They worked cheerfully and efficiently with results that exceeded my expectations. There's yet more to be done. I await a quotation for repair work to the solar system, which has now exceeded its used-by date. Many thanks to all concerned as I realise schedule planning by the office staff plays an important roll in the efficiency of an organisation. Thanks to everyone. Annette Watson and Mark Baumert

Not enough stars! Kaitlyn designed a system and fine tuned things to match our tricky roof. We maximised the number of panels (over 18KW) and she found the inverter for this. Bottom line my back period if just over 2 years. Amazing! The installation was seamless with Dean completing the work which is extremely neat. No mess no fuss and very professional. Thank you so much to Col Groves and the team.

Frequently asked questions

How much do electricians typically charge?

Costs vary depending on the job type, how much fault-finding is needed, and whether switchboard or circuit work is involved. Electricians typically charge a call-out fee plus an hourly labour rate, and after-hours attendance usually attracts higher rates. Check the live pricing on this page to compare local quotes.

Do electricians charge call-out fees?

Call-out fees are common and are usually charged separately to labour and materials to cover travel and the initial assessment. Some providers may also have a minimum charge for small jobs, so it's worth confirming any call-out or minimum fees when requesting quotes.

Do electricians need a licence in Australia?

Yes — electrical work must be carried out by a licensed electrician in every Australian state and territory, and in NSW licensing is through NSW Fair Trading. Electricians should display a valid state electrical licence number on quotes and advertising and will usually issue a Certificate of Electrical Safety on completion of work.
