I’m looking for a licensed electrician to replace an existing ceiling pendant light in my apartment. I have already purchased the exact replacement pendant light, so no parts are required—just installation. The existing light has a cracked shade and the replacement is the same model, so it should be a straightforward, quick job for a qualified electrician. Requirements: * Must be a licensed electrician. * Please bring any tools required for installation. * Please provide a tax invoice on completion of the work (or within 24 hours), as this is required for my tenancy records. Please let me know your availability and your quote. Thank you.

Licensed Electrician Needed – Repair 2 Ceiling Lights
$200
Kew VIC 3101, Australia
2nd Aug 2026
I’m looking for a licensed electrician to inspect and repair two ceiling lights. * Light 1 (Stairwell): Located above the stairwell at approximately 5 metres high. The light flickers continuously. The bulb has already been replaced, so it may be a wiring, LED driver or fitting issue. * Light 2 (Bedroom): The ceiling light does not turn on at all. The stairwell light is approximately 5 metres high, so you’ll need a suitable extension ladder and your own tools. Please only apply if you are a licensed electrician.
Excellent electrician! He arrived on time, quickly identified the issue, and fixed both lights professionally. He explained everything clearly and made sure everything was working perfectly before leaving. Friendly, efficient, and reliable. I’m very happy with the service and would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a skilled electrician. Thanks again!

Licensed Electrician Needed – Lighting Circuit Fault (Repair Required)
$300
Box Hill VIC 3128, Australia
9th Jul 2026
None of the lights in the house are working. The “Protected Light” breaker trips immediately when it is reset. Looking for a licensed electrician to attend, fault find, and repair the issue on the spot if possible. Please check the lighting circuit, light switches, wiring terminations, and switchboard breaker/RCBO to identify and fix the fault. It may be a faulty cable, loose termination, light switch, or breaker, but I need the exact cause diagnosed and repaired. Please only respond if you’re able to carry out the repair, not just provide a quote for a full switchboard replacement. If major work is genuinely required, please explain why before proceeding.
Amazing service, knew exactly what they were doing. Would recommend again 100% Thank you.
