Byrd Electrical Electrician

I used Byrd Electrical for a residential job in Sandringham, VIC in December, just before Christmas, and the experience went well beyond my expectations. I found them through Google “find nearby” after contacting four other electricians for quotes. Byrd Electrical were the only ones who could attend promptly, provide a detailed quote, and actually fit the job in before Christmas. They attended three days after first contact and provided a clear, itemised quote with options, which made it easy to understand exactly what was involved and choose the best approach. During the quote visit, they also inspected the switchboard and identified that several circuit breakers were not up to current standard. This was clearly explained to me, including the technical differences between the existing breakers and modern RCBO protection, and why this mattered from a safety and compliance perspective. As we have a small child, electrical safety is a priority for me, and this discussion highlighted a genuine risk that needed to be addressed. The quoted work included installing double external power points in different outdoor locations, as well as extending power, ethernet, and TV coax into a recessed media box for wall mounting an 80-inch TV. Two days after the quote, they attended to carry out the work, turning up exactly when they said they would and again discussing the quoted options before commencing. They also accommodated my request to ensure the recessed media box allowed space for a small NUC PC, which was handled without issue. During the job, following a detailed technical explanation and a discussion of the safety risks given we have a young child, I verbally approved additional work to address the switchboard issues. The switchboard was upgraded to current standards using modern RCBOs, ensuring appropriate protection across the relevant circuits. This was carried out transparently and professionally, and knowing the switchboard had been properly brought up to date was very reassuring. They also went beyond the original scope in other areas. Instead of simply relocating the existing ethernet and coax connections, they split them, ensuring I retained access to the original points as well as the new media location. Throughout the job, Ben, the electrician on site, was professional, tidy, and respectful of our home. Work areas were kept clean, explanations were clear, and the finished result looks well planned and neatly executed. Nothing felt rushed or improvised. As a final bonus, the total cost came in slightly under the quoted amount, which was a pleasant surprise given the additional work that was done. Overall, the combination of clear communication, detailed quoting, strong technical knowledge, attention to safety, on-time attendance, and the ability to deliver just before Christmas really set Byrd Electrical apart. Ben did a fantastic job, and I wouldn’t hesitate to use Byrd Electrical again or recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable electrician.

We needed quite a few items doing and Byrd Electrical were fantastic. Leon gave us a very detailed quote and then spent the time doing the work in a very thorough and professional manner while fully explaining everything being done. We have already asked them to return and do some additional items so we would highly recommended them to anyone looking to have electrical work done.

From the first phone call to arrange a quote - right through to the finished job, Byrd Electrical were incredibly helpful, friendly and efficient. They arrived on time, gave me a thorough rundown of what needed to be done and options to choose from quotes. They were able to complete the work on the same day which was fantastic. I will definitely call them for future jobs I have in mind once I move in to my property! Highly recommend! Thank you!

Highly recommend Byrd Electrical. I first contacted Byrd Electrical about an exhaust fan-related job that ultimately couldn’t go ahead for valid logistical reasons. Even so, Mark took the time to properly assess it and provide alternate options with me, and I found the level of effort and honesty refreshing. When I later needed a 32A outlet installed for EV charging, I went straight back to Byrd Electrical. The job was scoped upfront, pricing was clear, booking process seamless and they turned up on time and just got it done. The finish is neat and thought through - it is evident that Mark and the business take pride in their work. The whole process was straightforward, transparent and frictionless, which I highly value. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend and use them again.

We had an excellent experience with Byrd Electrical, who undertook quite a complex EV charger installation for us. Leon in particular was very professional and impressive - from quote through to completion. We were very happy with all the comms around scheduling and payment too. Bravo!

From meeting Leon my electrician from Byrd Electrical, to scoping the work and getting a quote right through to finishing up. I am very impressed by their quality of work, professionalism and friendliness! I highly recommend Byrd Electrical.
