Fantastic work by Chris yesterday! He came by on a Saturday (as I work Mon-Fri) just to take a look at my exhaust fan! I was turned down by so many others I called as it was too little of a job to do on the weekend. Chris understood my situation and arrived on time. He explained the issue and offered me a quote I could not refuse! He went ahead and replaced my exhaust fan the same day. I am a very satisfied customer!

I found The Local Electrician online, they had plenty of good reviews so I thought I'd give them a shot. I sent an online request and received a call from Helen within minutes. The booking process was smooth and simple.Chris called me on the day of the appointment to let me know that he is on the way and will be here shortly. He was on time and very friendly. The quotes were very fairly priced and so I chose to go ahead with the work. They used high end products for all the works and provided a detailed invoice and warranty on completion.Overall, they operate fantastically and I am happy I chose them.

I needed a few power points replaced as they were getting old and loose. I contacted Helen from the Local Electrician yesterday who said I will have a technician by the name of Chris attending my property this morning. Chris arrived within the designated time frame and phoned about a half hour before arrival. He went through each of my concerns and gave me a quote for each. He was very professional and extremely courteous. I choose to go ahead with all the work and it was completed perfectly. I am a very happy customer and look forward to working with him again 🙂

My father was in need of a stove replacement and contacted 3 electricians for a quote, one of them being The Local Electrician. He had the pleasure of meeting Chris who he felt the most comfortable with. Chris' quote was not only cheaper than the other 2 but he also offered to use the products of greatest quality. He immediately went ahead and Chris organised for the installation to take place the next day. He was extremely happy with the work and the customer service of Chris and asked me to express his gratitude through this review. We have also scheduled to meet with Chris for quotes on a few things we need done around the house and are very excited to meet him on Monday

I had lost all power and contacted the local electrician where I got in touch with Helen. She listened carefully to my issues and sent out Chris who was here within 30 minutes. He examined my issue and diagnosed the fault almost right away. He gave me a very fair quote and proceeded to restore my power. He used quality materials and I can definitely say the same about his work! They are a fantastic team and I would not hesitate to use them again

I lost all power to my house today and since my husband is away on business I had no idea what to do! I phoned multiple companies who were charging ridiculous call out fees (some over $149 at only 9am!!). Eventually I got a called Helen who provided me a service with Chris. He arrived and provided me a few quotes. Not knowing anything about electrical, I called my husband who was shocked at how reasonable his prices were! We chose to go ahead with his work and had our power back in no time. We have thrown away all other magnets and have only kept his.

I chose to go ahead with the entire quote and am glad I did! His prices were more than fair and his work was immaculate. Thank you Helen for organising such an amazing electrician.

Chris did a solid job today! Came out to my property on time so I wasn't late to my appointments and gave me a courtesy call about 30 minutes prior to arrival. Upon arrival he properly investigated the issue and provided me with 3 possible solutions (whereas the previous company I had called went straight for the most expensive!). I gave him the job right away and it was completed within the next few hours! I was so happy with him I asked him to come back tomorrow to quote on some other things I'd like done around the house

After having so many bad experiences with tradies in the past I researched online and found that the local electrician stands out greatly compared to everyone else. I called them and scheduled a booking expecting another disappointment. To my surprise a lovely gentleman named Chris phoned me to let me know he will be arriving in approximately 30 minutes (no previous companies bothered to do that). I explained all the work I needed and he went through each individually explaining what needs to be done and my options. He was very thorough and professional. Once I accepted the quote, he continued with the work immediately and did a spectacular job. Thank you Chris for restoring my faith in electricians!!

Why Does My Safety Switch Keep Tripping?

If you have a repeated trip switch than the most common issue is faulty appliances. However, other issues may be nuisance tripping and faulty wiring. Contact The Local Electrician for a same-day electrician to fix your problem.

When Do I Need A Switchboard Upgrade?

The main reason for when you need a switchboard upgrade include:  The switchboard is overcrowded your appliances trip, flickering lights, outdated Fuse, smell burning, or you can see sparks and melted or blackened fuses. Contact The Local Electrician for a switchboard upgrade today!

Why Isn’t My Hot Water System Working?

The most common electrical issues are when your circuit breaker is tripped and will not stay back on and there is a problem with your thermostat. Regardless of the issue, The Local Electrician can do it all -including the plumbing works to save you money.

Why Are My Lights Flickering?

If your lights are continuously flickering this may be due to a loose bulb, loose connection, voltage increase or the type of light. This potentially could be either a minor or a major electrical fault if not dealt with properly.

What Do I Do With A Beeping Smoke Alarm?

If your smoke alarm is continuously beeping than this may be a sign of it needing a battery replacement. However, this may also be due to a ended life span of 8-10 years. If you need an electrician to install a new one, contact The Local Electrician today!

Although they both perform the same function which is safety protection. A fuse box protected appliances from electrical spikes. Whereas a safety box protects people from general electrical hazards. The Local Electrician’s specialises in fuse box upgrades!
