    After having extensive work done on my boat in New Zealand for months, I had to carry the worst tradesman experience mistakes all the way back to Australia via the south Pacific calling into The Boat Works which I found Fantastic and The Boat Works are very competent electricians from On board electrics That fixed everything from my anchor camera to my window instruments to my Alternator all being fitted wrongly by so-called tradesmen overseas. I’m so happy to be back here with great tradesmen Mark and his crew here at On Board Elextrical have my highest Recommendation not forgetting Tony in the office programming my new Navionics charts with satellite overlays far too difficult for me to do I will be back for sure :)))))

    I have been working with Onboard Electrical for close to 4 years now across a wide variety of projects, from simple, minor component replacements to large vessel voltage conversions and complete re-design and re-wires. I have found their skills across the board to be some of the best I have worked with in 25 years in the industry. In my experience, a marine electrician who is strong in all areas is a very rare thing indeed. In the past I been forced to use several different contractors to get the results my clients demand, so finding Onboard has been a breath of fresh air. They continue to impress me with their methodical and effective fault finding, innovative solutions and always have a sharp focus on keeping costs down without compromising quality. Their office runs like clockwork, they always return calls and emails promptly. I wish all my marine contractors were this good, it would make my job so much easier!

    As a business that specializes in commercial electrical surveying services we collaborate with many marine electrical contractors throughout Australia. We have had the pleasure of collaborating with the On-Board Electrical team on numerous projects to-date and enjoy working with them. Not only are their team skilled marine electricians but they're also responsive and easy to work with. Their attention to detail and to customer service ensures that every project we have worked on together runs smoothly. What sets On-Board Electrical apart is their in-depth knowledge of the marine standards for both commercial and recreational vessels. Furthermore, their ability to collaborate effectively has made it easy for us to ensure that the vessel owner gets their vessel in-survey on-time and on-budget. The feedback we’ve received from our shared clients reinforces our belief that On-Board Electrical are a great choice as a marine electrical contractor.

    I was lucky enough to have met the team a few years ago and since then OBE has done everything for us from a major refit, to a new boat commissioning, plus ongoing upgrades. All have gone faultlessly which can't be said for some others. If you're looking for someone who can actually deliver what they say, with a relaxed can-do attitude, then look no further. Highly recommended!

    Mark was fantastic to deal with. He helped me choose the perfect Simrad setup for the game fishing I’m into. I get heaps of comments about how well my sounder picks up sign even at 1000m! He wasn’t pushy at all and made sure I didn’t overspend. Highly recommend Onboard Electrical.

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.
