Our Electrical Services
One licensed team handles everything from a faulty power point to a full switchboard rebuild, with clear pricing before we start and a workmanship guarantee on every job. Pick a service below to find out more.
General Electrical
Faulty power points, ceiling fans, smoke alarms and everyday faults get sorted quickly and safely. Our general electrical team turns up fast with the right gear ready.
Residential Electrical
Established family homes, over-50s villages and newer builds each need work matched to their build. Our residential electrical crew handles all three, with pricing agreed before anything starts.
Commercial Electrical
Local shops and services rely on power that will not let them down mid-trade. Our commercial electrical service keeps premises safe, compliant and running smoothly.
Electrical Repairs
When something stops working or behaves oddly, we track down the actual cause rather than guessing. Book electrical repairs for tripping circuits, dead outlets and ageing switchboard faults.
Home Security Installation
Cameras, sensor lighting and alarm systems installed properly, not bolted on as an afterthought. Our home security installation service suits family homes and retirement villages alike.
Light Installation
Downlights, LED conversions and outdoor lighting lift a home and trim the power bill over time. Our light installation team fits it cleanly, exactly where it is wanted.
Switchboard Upgrades
Original boards from the 1980s and 1990s were never built for today's aircon, pool and appliance loads. A switchboard upgrade adds safety switches and headroom for the whole household.
Smart Home Automation
Control lighting, power outlets and connected devices from your phone once it is wired correctly. Our smart home automation service keeps setups simple and genuinely safe.
Safety Inspections
Ahead of a sale, a new tenancy, or your own peace of mind, get the wiring checked properly. A safety inspection covers the board and every safety switch against current standards.
Data & Communications
Reliable internet, TV and network points are the backbone of a connected family home. Our data and communications team cables phones, ethernet and antennas neatly.
EV Charger Installation
More homeowners are adding electric vehicles to the driveway across the area. Our EV charger installation service sizes the circuit correctly and wires it to standard.
What Coombabah Homes Need from Their Local Electrician
Coombabah was largely built out from the early 1980s, when Coombabah State School and Coombabah State High School opened on Pine Ridge Road and brick-veneer family homes filled in the surrounding streets off Oxley Drive. The suburb wraps around the Coombabah Lakelands Conservation Area and the tidal Coombabah Creek, and has since attracted a large over-50s and retiree population into lifestyle villages alongside the original family housing stock.
That mix of eras is where most of our local switchboard work comes from. A good share of the 1980s and 1990s detached homes still carry their original board, and many predate mandatory safety switches, so fitting RCD protection across every circuit is one of the most common jobs we do here. Family homes with backyard pools regularly need dedicated, compliant pool and spa circuits added or upgraded to keep pace with modern loads. Whether your power comes through Energex to a house near Oxley Drive or a villa in one of the retirement communities on Pine Ridge Road, the fix is the same: work done properly, to standard, and left safe.
Emergency
When an Electrical Emergency Strikes, We Respond Fast
Certain faults cannot wait for a convenient time. Spot any of the following in your home and it is time to cut the circuit and call us straight away:

- A safety switch that keeps tripping
- Exposed or damaged wiring after a storm
- Lights flickering in more than one room
Same-day and emergency service is what we offer, we are frequently on site within the hour, and we do not leave until it is genuinely safe. In the meantime, switch off the circuit at the board and stay clear of it.

Common Electrical Issues We Fix Across Coombabah
Beyond the switchboard work covered above, the mix of established family homes and retirement villages throws up a handful of other issues again and again. Here is what we see most often:
- No Safety Switches Homes built before safety-switch mandates, common across the suburb's earlier estates, frequently lack RCD protection on every circuit, and we fit it as standard.
- Pool and Spa Circuits Many detached family homes have backyard pools needing their own compliant, dedicated circuit rather than sharing an already stretched board.
- Overloaded Power Points Older boards asked to run modern appliances, aircon and entertainment gear often show up as warm switches or points that trip under load.
- Ageing Original Wiring Wiring from the suburb's first build-out is regularly due for a fault-find and partial rewire as homes are renovated or sold.
