    I’m extremely happy with the service I received from DQ Electrical. Nathan was my main contact, and he has been patient, knowledgeable, and always willing to answer my silly questions, never once pushy or trying to oversell anything (Not your typical Sales Rep). The system DQ installed has been excellent, and we’re so impressed that we will have a battery installed with them soon. A solid 10/10 experience

    I had a Tesla Powerwall 3 and a solar system installed by DQ Electrical. The whole process—from quotation to installation—was excellent and professional. A few days after installation, I experienced a Powerwall fault, but the team escalated it immediately and replaced the battery with a new one very quickly. Their after-sales service has been top-notch, and I’m totally satisfied with the system and their support. Highly recommend DQ Electrical.

    I stopped giving reviews many years ago due to websites, (admittedly accommodation ones), choosing which reviews to publish. After first contacting DQ 12 months ago, and having a panels plus battery installation completed in February 2025, I now wish to express my observations and experiences. From the very first contact, the office staff have always been polite and efficient in putting me onto the right person to answer my concerns. The process of getting information for systems and quotes is simple. I found Steve very informative and a good advisor on which way to proceed. The installation crew that came from Adelaide to Yorke Peninsula were efficient, polite and kept you up to date on the process and progress, they left the site spotless and even took all of the rubbish and old panels for disposal. DQ Electrical strongest point is in after installation service, they are still there to help you out, the owner, Don, will even go out of his way to ensure satisfaction. My view is that this company will be around for a long time to come. The whole crew is really at their prime, have learnt their business skills over a decade and a half or thereabouts and are primed to continue successfully for another 2 decades My advice to prospective customers is to commit to these guys, I doubt that you will have any regrets. I certainly do not, evidenced by this review by an old bugger that stopped giving reviews years ago.

    From the very first phone call for the quote until the end of installation, Steve and the team ( Ben, Michael,Callum,Caleb, and Patrick) did a fantastic job. They are skilled and explained all I needed to know and, more importantly, very friendly. System running as it should be with the battery. Though July is the lowest solar production month, I am still getting a decent output every day. Competitive price and local company doing business from 2009. Good mob 😀 , happy to recommend them.

    Nathan Birch of DQ Electrical designed a solar panel system with powerwall (Teslar batteries). The cost was very reasonable, but the performance is beyond my expectations. A power outage in the district did not affect us. The batteries kept the household running. Once the system settings were checked, I have drawn almost no power from the grid but exported enough to put me in credit. The advice from DQ Electical was excellent and the installation team was competent and fast, cleaning up before leaving. I can recommend them with confidence.

    I couldn’t be happier with the team at DQ Electrical! From start to finish, they made the whole process of installing my new solar system with battery and upgrading my old power board absolutely seamless. The communication was fantastic – they explained everything clearly, answered all my questions, and made sure I understood how to get the most out of my new setup. The workmanship was first-class: neat, efficient, and with great attention to detail. You can really tell they take pride in their work. Since the installation, my system has been running perfectly and it’s reassuring knowing I have a safe, modern power board and a reliable solar + battery setup. The crew were punctual, professional, and left everything spotless when they were done. I highly recommend DQ Electrical to anyone looking for solar, battery, or electrical upgrades – they are friendly, trustworthy, and deliver top-quality results.

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.
Does DQ Electrical have a verified ABN?
Yes. DQ Electrical has completed ABN verification on SureQuote.
