    A1 service by Duncan Kerr Electrical company! Spoke to Duncan initially to get an estimate and he responded sincerely. The friendly electrician Simon was on time and did a fantastic job at our house. He discussed with me and my wife to understand our needs before giving suggestions on what would work best for us. The outcome was very satisfying. Simon left our house neat and tidy. Duncan was open to price us reasonably as well. We would definitely recommend Duncan Kerr Electrical services to our friends and their families.

    We had a Tesla wall charger installed in our house. It was a complicated job but done very well and professionally. Communication with Duncan Kerr was easy and he knew what he was doing. The installers were excellent and took the required Covid safety precautions very seriously. Highly recommended!

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.
