Licensed Electrician Needed

$500

Melbourne CBD VIC 3000, Australia

23rd Mar 2026

Need a licensed electrician to inspect my 2-bedroom apartment living area and confirm whether it is possible to create/provide an electrical point for installing a chandelier. If feasible, I would like: • 1 chandelier installed (see attached picture) • 4 wall lights replaced and installed and also install a Kitchen Chimney and remove old ones. Property is on the 24th floor, directly opposite Southern Cross Station. I would prefer an inspection first before proceeding with the full installation. Please quote separately for: • inspection/feasibility check (ideally NO CALL OUT FEE is desirable) • installation work if feasible

Couldn’t be happier with the job. He installed a chandelier, 4 lights, 2 panel heaters, and also changed a few globes and switches for me. The work was done professionally, efficiently, and to a very high standard. Everything was completed neatly and properly, and the overall experience was smooth and stress-free. I would happily give 5 stars and highly recommend him for any electrical work.
