    Alex is a pleasure to work with. He communicates very well, has fair prices, and is very methodical with his work. Wouldn't hesitate to reach out again.

    Alex was a pleasure to deal with. We had a new switchboard and sockets installed and he went over and above to find our circuit issue. Nothing was too much of a hassle and he was more than happy to accommodate my many questions. I would highly recommend him and his business for any electrical work. I had 2 other electricians come out to quote the work, both were more expensive and did little testing prior to giving me quotes. 5 stars and 2 thumbs up! David

    I can't recommend Alex from Alter Electrical highly enough! His electrical knowledge is outstanding, and his work is always neat and precise—so much so that you'd never even know he’s been in your home, as he thoroughly cleans up afterwards. Beyond his expertise, Alex is a genuinely kind and pleasant person to work with. He saved us an entire day of potential delays with other trades, demonstrating clever, out-of-the-box thinking. We will definitely be calling on him for any future electrical work. It's also wonderful to support a hardworking, family-oriented local business. 10/10—thank you, Alex!

    Alex from Alter electrical complete some electrical work at my home, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. Unlike other tradies I’ve dealt with in the past, Alex was quick, efficient, and exceptionally tidy. He took the time to assess the job and even spotted a few issues that previous electricians had overlooked or ignored—he was able to fix on the spot. Alex takes pride in his work and genuinely cares about his clients’ safety and satisfaction. Highly recommended!

    Alex was very friendly and excellent with communication. He installed 2 ceiling fans quickly and without any issues. I highly recommend him to anyone in need of electrical work.

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.
