    The boys at Smith & Freshwater just fitted a generator/change over switch to our house. Awesome friendly and professional service guys👌👌 well done. Temporary lead made up also so it can be used if needed before the lines are run over to the shed🙌🙌 Big thumbs up and highly recommend 😉. Will definitely be using these guys when we get batteries and diesel generators at the shed and run power back to the house. Awesome job

    Just had Nick and his team back to install more panels and a solar battery. As expected the quote was received very quickly and was very detailed. The work was carried out quickly and in a professional manner, hats off to Nick and Jack, couldn’t have been happier with your work. Engaged Nick Freshwater to design and install solar on my property. The quote was provided very promptly and the works were started shortly after the quote was accepted. The service provided by Nick and his solar team was exemplary, arriving promptly each day until the job was completed. Very happy with the service and standard of work provided and will definately use SAFE for future work.

    Couldn’t be happier with the service from the smith & freshwater team. We’ve had them out to our business for an SOS call when power went down at our business and installing specialist medical equipment. Both times the team has been great to deal with, super reliable and professional. Couldn’t recommend more highly.

    Nick and his team from Smith and Freshwater installed a 13.2kw solar system with a 10kw battery. The system was up and working quickly and is now generating up to 99% of our power needs. When there was a power outage recently and everyone else was without power for several hours, the battery kept our lights on. The solar edge app provides up to the minute intel on the production and consumption data including how much power is exported to the grid. If a minor issue was identified post installation, Nick sorted it out on a timely basis. I strongly recommend Smith and Freshwater for solar system installations.

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.
