Highly recommend Nic. He did outstanding electrical work for us (installing 14 lights, 3 ceiling fans and 2 exhaust fans). He was punctual, friendly and did high-quality work. In particular, he helped us think through what we wanted (style, locations, product types etc.) and worked really well with the other two people we had onsite (flooring and painter). Thanks again Nic!!

Electrician to replace oven function selector switch
$100
Richmond VIC 3121, Australia
27th Oct 2026
Looking for a electrician to replace the function selector switch on our built-in Belling IB609FP electric oven. The function knob snapped off and the switch shaft broke flush with the switch, so the switch needs replacing. Everything else on the oven was working fine before this. We have the replacement part ready (Glen Dimplex part [22102002 / 20884983]). We believe the job may involve: - Isolating power and sliding the oven out of the cabinet - Removing the control panel (it has a glass front, so please take care) - Swapping the old switch for the new one and transferring the wiring - Refitting the oven and testing each function We are open to fixing it other ways though if you can think of any. Photos of the broken knob and switch are attached.

Looking for an experienced electrician to complete the following: 1. Move a recessed electrical outlet currently in middle of wall to bottom of wall. Then cover and seal the recess so we can paint over later. 2. Replace approx 10 existing electrical outlet plates with new ones (will need wiring, not just plates only) See images.

Electrician needed: Run 20m cable laundry to garage to power point
$450
St Kilda VIC 3182, Australia
27th Oct 2026
Hi there, I am looking for a fully licensed and insured electrician to help me get power to my garage. The Job: • I need a new power point (GPO) installed in the garage. • needs to support two fridges. Both are 5.3amp • The power needs to be sourced from an existing power point/outlet located in the laundry • A new cable (approximately 20 meters long) needs to be run from this existing source, out to the garage. • I believe a junction box may be required to connect the new line to the existing power source, but I will leave the exact method up to your professional judgment. • Please note: The cable will need to run outside. I may have enough conduit which can be used. Requirements: • Must be a licensed electrician (happy to provide certificate of electrical safety/compliance upon completion). • Please bring all necessary materials (cable, junction box, new power point, etc.) • I am looking for a neat, safe, and professional job. Images shows where outside wires to go. Power can come from either the larger switch or the PowerPoint in the images below. They are both in same room.
