    Steve was recommended to me by a family member, as he's done quality work for them for a number of years. I was just in the middle of a house reno and needed a good sparky - Steve is brilliant. Honest, fast and thorough. The work is quality and I'm very happy! He did a lot of work for me: from replacing many light fittings and subsequent old/dangerous wiring and switches, installing outdoor fixed path lighting, installing a Tesla charger into my garage as well as upgrading my mains board. Cost was very reasonable in my opinion considering the amount of time spent. I thoroughly recommend Steve, for even the smallest jobs - hard to find a decent tradie!

    Steve is the most competent and trustworthy tradesmen I’ve ever worked with. His perseverance with a sticky problem is impressive and his knowledge, experience, and application, are second to none. The methodical way he tracks down the nature of a problem means he figures out the right solution. He believes in getting to the root of the problem, rather than doing the band-aid solution that would be easy (and often expensive) so the problem gets genuinely sorted. He’s good at explaining as he works it through, which makes it easy to understand what he is doing, and to trust his insights and solutions. He has a strong commitment to safety. Beyond his work as a Sparky, Steve's experience, knowledge and generosity in other areas relevant to my home repair and improvement needs are strong. He has generously shared his insights into non-electrical problems I’ve asked him about - without ever stepping beyond his qualifications- and this has been very helpful to me. He has been very patient in his desire to assist me toward the best solutions. Just the kind of tradie you’d want. A final bonus. Steve has an easy-going but ‘no- bull’ personality, that makes him a pleasure to work with.

    Highly recommend. Steve has done a proper and thorough service at checking the safety of the electrical wiring and upgrading our lighting of a 4 bedroom house. He also gave recommendations of what needed to be done to make it safer eg. pest control, good insulation and upgrading cables. We asked to have down lights, fans and smoke alarms installed and he did well with these also. He was honest in his recommendations and practiced within his scope. Very reliable, highly recommend

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.
