Every Shire home is different, so we quote each job individually after we've seen it. Here's what drives the cost. You're quoted before any work begins.
What affects the price
Distance and runs
Long cable runs to sheds, granny flats and detached garages add materials and labour.
Switchboard capacity
Pools, air con, granny flats and EV chargers may need switchboard work first.
Wiring condition
Older wiring may need replacing before new work connects to it.
Equipment chosen
Chargers, fans and light fittings vary widely in price.
When the work is done
Urgent work at night, on weekends or on public holidays can be priced differently from a booked weekday job. Ask when you call and we'll tell you before we start.
What we find on inspection
Some faults only show their full extent once circuits are tested. If the scope changes, we stop and explain before going further.
Compliance requirements
Some jobs, such as switchboard replacements and new circuits, need testing and a Certificate of Compliance for Electrical Work. That is part of doing the job properly.
Frequently asked questions
How much does a switchboard upgrade cost?
It depends on the size of the property, the number of circuits, the condition of the wiring and access. We inspect first and quote in writing.
Do you quote before starting?
Always.
Can I get a quote over the phone?
For simple jobs we can often estimate. For switchboards, rewiring and EV chargers we inspect first.
Do you work for landlords?
Yes, including granny flat rentals.
Do you provide a Certificate of Compliance?
Yes, where the work requires one.
Do you work weekends?
Yes, we're on call 24/7.
