Electrician to move two light switches; brick wall

$250

Hayden can be counted on to follow through with whatever job you assign to him and address any problems that arise whether it’s an issue with the site or the fittings. He takes pride in his work which is what you want in an electrician. We had a tough task an and I had trickier lights and the scope changed but we managed in the end and everyone is delighted with the result. The only thing that could have been improved was to go slower on the tricker bits, but this is because Hayden is keen to get the job done efficiently. Overall 👍

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.

Bypass and remove residential light switches x10

$100

Bondi Beach NSW, Australia

26th Aug 2024

I have smart lights operating with zigbee and wish to remove the physical switches from the wall, leaving the lights hard-wired on. A wireless functional switch will be used, and the device itself is capable of switching, which meets AS/NZ3000:2018. There is a breaker in the switchboard for isolation. Wall repair will not be required within the quote. There are about 10 switches to remove, and I will unscrew the faceplates before your arrival so that you only need to disconnect the switch and connect the appropriate wires together, wrap with insulation tape and push into the wall. I am aware there are some dimmers - I don’t need these.

Replace switches on two table lamps and a floor lamp

$200

Randwick NSW, Australia

24th Apr 2024

I have three lamps which aren’t working: two table lamps and a floor lamp. Not the globes- I did try those. I replaced a switch on one of them (naughty I know) but that hasn’t fixed that lamp. Not sure about the other two and whether a simple switch replacement will fix them. The work could be done at my place, they could be taken away. I could bring them to you if that would make it cheaper

Shahriar arrived right on time, examined the items closely amd explained the faults he had to fix. Very satisfied

Electrician to install 4 light sockets/Philips Hue into my clinic

$150

Edgecliff NSW, Australia

15th Feb 2024

Hello, two part task: ADD NEW SWITCH Currently the lights for our room are controlled by a master switch outside. We would like to have our own switch in the room separate from the master switch. Will require a light switch for the room. PHILIPS HUE LIGHT INSTALL I need four light sockets installed and these Philips Hue downlights put into my depression treatment clinic in Edgecliff. Here are the Philips Hue lights, I am unsure of additional materials required: https://www.jbhifi.com.au/products/philips-hue-colour-ambiance-bluetooth-downlight-90mm And I have included a picture of the clinic attached. They are for one room and the roof is made from the panelling you see in most older office buildings. Once set up, we would like to take out the fluorescent bulbs and have the downlights act as lighting for the room. Ideally we could cover up the fluorescent bulbs with roof tiles of which there are spares. There is only one switch to control the fluoroscent lights for the whole clinic but we want to be able to dim lights for our treatment. Unsure about hourly rate but happy to talk about what is fair. Josh - Due date: Tomorrow or Monday 19th of Feb
