What do sockets and switches installation services include?

Trained and certified electricians work on socket and light switch installation tasks so you won't have to compromise you and your home's overall safety. They can assemble wirings and cable, connect them to power sources, and inspect if the electricity is flowing adequately right after. Thinking of booking our switch installation service? Here's what you can expect:

Powerpoint installation

Before installing your appliances, it's crucial to secure enough power points to support the electricity flow. Electricians can help you plan, install, and replace or add powerpoints to maximise your area. They start by inspecting your place to identify specific spots where you'll likely need power sockets. The installation process typically involves:

  • unscrewing the cover plates
  • retesting the power source
  • connecting extra cables to existing electrical outlets and stretching them to different locations
  • rewiring cables to the new electrical socket or powerpoint
  • Light switch installation

Light switches are responsible for connecting your electrical lights to the power source. If you need to replace an existing light switch, your electrician can disconnect them for you. Keep in mind, however, that the replacement switch needs to have the same functionality as the old one.

We can help install new light switches if you're in the process of building a new home or renovating your bathroom or kitchen. The process mostly involves rewiring and connecting new cables to the power source and mounting new faceplates. In case you want multi-purpose electrical lights, you can also request for dimmer switch installation.

Outdoor electrical socket installation

Professional electricians can also install outdoor sockets on your balcony, patio, or turf. This way, it's easier and safer to connect your appliances, especially if you're planning to have an outdoor kitchen or barbeque area. 

It's also essential to consider the size of the landscape area, the structure conditions, and all the equipment you're planning to utilise. Electricians can handle the drill, connect cables from indoor to outdoor wall, and rewire your new outdoor electrical outlets accordingly.

Replace 50 x 240v light switches / power points to home.

$500

Mackenzie QLD 4156, Australia

15th Dec 2025

22 year old home just repainted and the switches are showing how discoloured they are. Have purchased 50 new switches comprising = 16 x single light switch, 6 x double light switch, 3 x triple light switch and 25 x double power points. All cover plates are already removed. Easy access.

Jakobus went above and beyond what we thought he would do. Removed his boots when working in carpeted areas. Used a spirit level to ensure all light switches were perfectly vertical. Tidied up everything before he left. From initial communication to the wave goodbye was a real pleasure. Highly recommend.

Renew connections of all power sockets on the wall

$250

Eight Mile Plains QLD, Australia

20th Nov 2025

Renew connections of all power sockets on the wall (screw-terminal connections)so that they will be more secure. these sockets belong to two series in my house: Series 1. • Single Power Point Socket x3 • Double Power Point Socket x3 • Single Power Point Socket with Extra Power Switch x1 I manually turned off the circuit breaker for Series 1 on electric switch box. because one of socket of Series1 is bad - perhaps loose connections, overheating, and potential fire hazards. (Though none of the circuit breakers in the electrical box tripped) Series 2. • Single Power Point Socket x3 • Double Power Point Socket x4 Originally, - wanted to change the socketes connected in series circuits to parallel connections. Later, thought this might not be very practical. But if you think it's feasible, I'm also willing to conside it.
