    Jay was excellent On time and well priced Installed multiple PowerPoints around my old house and rear floodlight. Also noted that someone had installed a non-waterproof PowerPoint in the bathroom and recommended we upgrade it to avoid an incident. Will definitely deal with again

    Jay did a fantastic job upgrading our old and non-compliant power switches. His work was neat and professional, and he communicated clearly before and after the service. He showed up promptly on short notice, and his pricing was very reasonable for the quality of work delivered. Highly recommended!

    I called Jim's to seek help for an electrical problem that had resulted in us losing power in the kitchen including all electrical appliances. Within a minute, Jay called back to say he was on another job in another suburb but would be at our place within an hour. He arrived in about 45 minutes and in under half an hour was able to establish what the problem was, fix it and do all the necessary checks to make sure we were all good to go. He was professional, friendly and knew his stuff. We'd have no hesitation in using Jay again as our first point of call for anything electrical.

    Came and put up a pendant light whilst I was having other work done. Was fair and reasonable and clear on pricing upfront, before any work was carried out.

    We had an issue in our building where we couldn't connect our server to our router on the other side of the building. Jay came in and very quickly installed cabling along our roof so that we could connect physically and not via WiFi. Now our workload is quicker than ever. Highly recommend Jay from Jim's Electrical!

    Jay is the friendliest electrician I have met. Very diligent and professional. Arrives onsite when he says he will and cleans up his work area always.

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.
