What do electrician services include?

Our local electrical contractors can handle all electrical projects, be it for residential, commercial, and industrial properties. If you are building from scratch, they can help construct an efficient electrical framework for you. They can also establish new electrical wirings and control systems, and test the electrical flow for your safety. 

As for existing properties, electricians can routinely maintain, repair and upgrade your power and control systems whenever needed. They can also handle electrical equipment and machinery for factories and manufacturing plants. Here is the better overview of our electrical services depending on your job requirements:

Domestic electrician

Electrical safety is paramount when it comes to your home, and that's when residential electricians play a vital role. They can help make sure that all electrical components, including wires and cables, are in good condition to avoid any incidents that could put you and your family at risk.

Domestic electricians can establish power points and safety switches to support your household appliances. They can also assist with installing various electrical appliances such as electric heaters and showers, in case you're looking to upgrade or planning a renovation.

Commercial electrician

Not to be confused with domestic electricians, commercial electricians are mostly involved in large-scale projects for buildings and various businesses like restaurants, hotels, and corporate offices. Depending on your establishment's requirements, they can fix lighting, heating, and cooling systems or install fire alarms and other security equipment if needed.

Industrial electrician

For tasks that involve higher voltage and control systems and more complex machinery, it's better to connect with an industrial electrician with a white card . Their services include electrical construction and maintenance for industries like factories and plants. They don't just install lights and electrical heaters. Most of the time, they also deal with different types of manufacturing equipment, including hydraulic and pneumatic systems. Industrial electricians can also troubleshoot problems and repair them as they see fit. They can even create tailored maintenance programs for your electrical motors and generators.

Emergency electrician

The moment you sense something odd with your sockets and safety switches, or notice a burning smell, spark, or flickering of lights, get in touch with a local electrician immediately for emergency repairs. With Airtasker, finding available emergency electricians in your area is fast and easy! You won't even have to worry about not having any power tools on hand–most sparkies are already equipped with their own professional power tools and test instruments, which they can bring with them for any service that you may need.

Electrician to wire a 3 in 1 bathroom fan & light

$150

Unanderra NSW, Australia

11th May 2024

Electrically wire replacement fan light and socket. Current switch is for existing down light and old exhaust fan. The old fan was plugged in. I’ve taken the old fan out and installed the new 3 in 1 light, heat light and fan. It’s a pretty straight forward wiring job. The access is next to my man hole, so you won’t have to climb into the roof, just stand on a ladder like I did. The new light needs to be wired to the existing wiring in the roof and then the new switch socket needs to be sorted. The new switch has four switches (light, heat bulbs and fan). Option one would be to keep the existing light switch and change it to a singular switch for the down lights. Or option two would be (if possible), totally get rid of the existing switche and some how connect the existing down lights to work with the light switch on the new product. Hopefully I’m not confusing anyone. Not a long or dirty job. Everything is in place and everything is easily accessible for requiring. Just need a qualified electrician to carry out the work. Hit me up if you are interested

Thanks Peter. Local and experienced electrician

Solar Panel Clean and Mount Hawk Bird Scarer

$5

Wollongong NSW, Australia

15th Feb 2024

I would like a quote from a professional that knows how to walk on a roof without damaging it - to clean the bird poo off my solar panels - to fix a Bird Scarer (already purchased this) above the TV aerial - to check if the whirly bird is actually working - to remove the disused satellite dish.

Dursun is a very talented and skilled individual, his help was exceptional. He very cleverly engineered a mounting system for the bird scarer and fixed everything on the roof, he works safety and precisely- meticulous in his methods and very tidy on completion. Very knowledgeable and experienced, willing and able to accept new challenges. Exceptional communication throughout, reliable and 100% great value 👍 I am so grateful - thank you
