Mark Cave Electrical helped us with numerous jobs around the house; installation of solar, installation of fans, outdoor lighting, light switches and getting power to our shed. They were an absolute pleasure to work with. They turned up when they said they would, were respectful and clean when working around our home and took the time to talk through everything with us. I highly recommend them. Thank you to Mark and the team!

Mark and his team's work was extremely professional and of the highest quality. I felt looked after and valued by Mark and his team. There was transparency in all dealings and the quality of work couldn't have been better. We have had solar and battery installed, general maintenance and electrical board replaced by this Business. We have never had a problem with Mark and his team and all work has been of the highest standard. I couldn't recommend this business more. If you really want the job done and done well at a fair price, this is the way to go. Thank you Mark!

I've used the team here a few times now (powerpoint repair, smart smoke alarm installation, additional lighting installation, and ceiling fan replacements and additional installations) and will certainly use them again when I have the need. Prompt responses to both online and phone enquiries, proper discussions to understand my requirements and a timely quote and job booking. Each sparky that has attended has been on time, friendly, professional, thoughtful and knew exactly how to do what was required. Additionally, they were fast and tidy. Completely satisfied and no hesitation recommending them.

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.
