What our Sydney electricians fix
Power Outages & No Power

We test the circuit, not just the switch, so the problem doesn't come back the next day.

Sparks, exposed wiring, water-damaged power points, storm damage - we make it safe immediately and quote any full repair upfront.
Available 24/7 across Sydney, including after-hours, weekends and public holidays.

Safety switch nuisance tripping fix
A home in Newtown had one shared RCD covering the whole house, tripping every time two appliances ran together. We split the board into individually RCBO-protected circuits and left the mains fed by RCBO.
5 hrs on siteIndividually protected circuits, nuisance tripping gone.
Undersized board overloaded by a new split system
Adding a ducted air conditioner in Newtown overloaded the old fuse-based board. We upgraded to a modern enclosure with extra ways, added a dedicated RCBO circuit for the new unit and re-tested every circuit.
6 hrs on siteNew board with spare capacity, dedicated air conditioning circuit, CCEW issued.
Names and identifying details omitted. Every job includes an electrical Certificate of Compliance issued to the property owner.

I highly recommend Joe, he's very skilled, kind and does honest work. He did a massive last minute job for us, installing an entire 17.4kw ducted aircon system after our old unit broke.

It was an extremely exceptional service from Joe! He came to replace my cooktop on my rented unit then went above and beyond liaising and explaining with my property manager.

I recently had Joe fix two exhaust fans at my place, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the service. Joe showed up on time, explained everything clearly, and fixed the issues quickly.
