What I want Replace downlights(approx 10-15), all fittings in a room done together so colour temperature matches Higher lumen output than current — tell me the output per fitting you're quoting Existing dimmers: leave or remove, whichever is simpler Install approx 5 x 10A power points, including one in the garage — locations marked on site Stairs: optional smart switch, quote separately

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!

This is the first stage of the renovation. After the plumber disconnects the gas and the old appliances are removed, I will also need a licensed electrician to return to connect the new oven and other electrical work, so there may be additional work available. Requirements * Must be a licensed electrician * Available today / ASAP * Please bring all necessary tools * Please let me know your earliest arrival time.

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.

Need a smoke alarm fitted. Edit based on questions: there is currently a Brooks EIB 141l ionisation smoke alarm installed which needs replacing. I have not yet bought a new one but it appears EIB 146E would be the best replacement. Pics attached on the unit and where it is currently installed.
Replaced smoke alarm efficiently.
