100 percent recommended. Tim was prompt, professional and super knowledgeable. He went above and beyond to fix our nbn issue caused by our cats and came super short notice/after hours so we didn’t have to be without internet. He didn’t have an issue with the crazy state of our house mid mass clean out. The job was a little less straightforward than originally thought but he spent the extra time and effort making sure it was all 100 percent working, and guaranteed his work. We will definitely be using him again for any further requirements.

Hello, We are looking for a licensed ACT Electrician to attend our retail store, in Westfield Belconnen, to replace two faulty track light fittings. The Issue: Two of our ceiling-mounted track spotlights have stopped working. As these are integrated LED units, the entire fitting needs to be replaced, not just a bulb.

Safely accessing the light fittings on the high ceiling track (a suitable ladder is required). 2. Removing the two faulty light fittings. 3. Supplying and installing two new, compatible track light fittings that match the existing ones in style, colour, and light temperature. 4. Testing the new lights to confirm they are fully operational. Requirements: - MUST be a fully licensed and insured ACT Electrician. - You must have your own tools, including an A-frame ladder appropriate for a high commercial ceiling. - The contractor must be able to source and supply the two replacement track light fittings. Location & Timing: Location: Westfield Belconnen, Benjamin Way, Belconnen ACT 2617 When: The job can be completed at your earliest convenience. Please state your availability in your offer. Please provide a comprehensive quote for the complete job. Your offer should include all labour costs AND the cost of supplying two new track light fittings. Thank you.
Adam was professional, punctual, and easy to communicate with. He completed the replacement of the two faulty track lights efficiently and to a high standard. Thank you for your excellent work.
