    I highly recommend Robbie and the team. I needed two fans replaced, which Robbie was able to do for me on short notice. Excellent service from start to finish and even took away the old fans for me. Great price too. Would definitely use again.

    Robbie McDonald Electrical was the electrical trade for our new build home in Buderim. Robbie and his team were very knowledgable on fan and lighting options and recommended feature and ambience lights that were accepted. Robbie also installed an expanded 13.2kW solar system. Robbie and his team were very professional and easy to work with. We have no hesitation in recommending Robbie to any client looking for an innovative solution to their electrical design and installation. Pam and David

    I was so impressed with Robbie's prompt reply to my call regarding an issue with my solar panels. Not only did he ring me back within minutes, he arrived on a Saturday morning, to do an inspection and to give me his advice. I would highly recommend Robbie as he was professional, genuine and very affordable.....no BS or inflated costs. Give him a go, you won't be sorry 👍

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.
