Electrical circuit breaker
$200
South Yarra VIC 3141, Australia
23rd Aug 2026
I’ve got a garage studio where the power occasionally trips when high-power appliances like the kettle, washing machine or heater are being used. I believe the garage and some of the downstairs power points may be running on the same circuit. Could you please assess whether the load can be redistributed across the existing circuits, or whether it would be better to install a new dedicated circuit? I’m just looking for the most cost-effective way to prevent the power from tripping.
Exceptional work. Chan went over and above and was excellent to work with. Great workmanship and is highly recommended.

One of the switches for the fan in the bathroom is not working. It is on now for 24 hours. There is a small bulb attached on the kitchen splashback but I couldnt find its switch. I want someone to have a look at the switches in my apartment and do some checks to make them work properly. After the check, we can also negotiate the price for the job.
The job was done very quick and efficient professionally! Thank you very much! :)
