Electrician

$300

Surry Hills NSW, Australia

23rd Jan 2026

I need an electrician who is able to rewire old fashioned light fittings so that pendant lights with shades are able to be attached. I am also wanting another wall light to be fitted into the alcove of the front door. Would also be keen to take away fluorescent light in kitchen to be replaced by track or spot lighting on your recommendation. Not sure if this can be done? All electrical wires are thick and unable to fit modern pendants, that are too heavy for the existing wiring system. Would need a totally different updated wiring to be able to attach pendant style lighting. There are 6 lights plus one non existent. Would want to commence work in a few days - and get some advice on what pendants and lights would work beforehand.
