    Nik was very informative and friendly. Today he provided advice and has organised the correct procedure around hard wiring my new induction cook top and oven. He then noticed I had an aircon and vacuumed the filter. (no charge, just wanted to be sure it was done) I was also worried about the smoke alarms and he checked those, explained how the newer models work, provided details on the types currently recommended and then emailed that - as I would like to replace those in the new year. His knowledge, ability to clearly explain the requirements, safety facts and offer all levels of costings with alternatives, were very much appreciated here! Wouldn't hesitate to recommend!

    I am very grateful to Nik for fixing the issue with my bathroom exhaust fan. Throughout the entire process, he demonstrated excellent communication skills and patiently answered all my questions before starting the job. He worked hard to help me solve the problem and showed great professionalism from start to finish. After completing the work, he even vacuumed the area and left it spotless — unlike many other tradespeople who leave a mess behind. I highly recommend Nik — he definitely won’t let you down.

    Just engaged the services of 181 Electrical to help install and upgrade a new power switchboard and fix old and added new down lights for our home. Dario and his colleague did the initial checks and quotation, explained and discussed our requirements which was reasonable and agreed upon. The works was carried out the following morning by Jordan and Sam. They were punctual and completed the work within the assigned time. They did a proper job and passed the inspection after. Our thanks and recommendation to the 181 Electrical team!

    I called 181 Electrical as we were experiencing issues with our hardwired ‘ding dong’ doorbell which was not loud enough for our large home. Most times we would miss visitors at our front porch. After our initial inquiries, Dario came out and offered a product and advice that would suit our needs. I was given quote that day. I was impressed with customer service that I did not bother with a 2nd quote. The office made it easy to book a schedule and make payment. Without hesitation I would highly recommend 181 Electrical for all your electrical needs. Post installation we are very happy with our decision. Thank you Dario and Brook.

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.
