Top Electricians related questions
Yes, Australian law states that any electrical work must be done by a licensed electrician to ensure safety and compliance with state regulations. In NSW, you need to find professionals with an electrical licence or certificate before doing any electrical wiring work. This is intended to ensure optimum safety and avoid injuries or accidents. In QLD, doing electrical work without a licence is illegal; only very limited unlicensed tasks are allowed.Â
If you need a registered electrician, confirm if the Tasker has the relevant licence (or white card) and certificate.
It depends on the scope and inclusions of the service you need. Typically, electric installation or repairs in a residential area take several hours, but can still be completed within the day. Industrial or commercial electrical works, on the other hand, may take a little longer since they require a wider variety of services and follow stringent safety regulations. In case your sparky needs to revisit your property the next day, they can coordinate the details with you right away.
Experts recommend having your electric wires, cables, and boxes inspected at least every three to five years. For landlords, you can also have your property checked after a tenancy contract. A more frequent inspection is encouraged for commercial and industrial premises. Since they have higher energy consumption, they are more susceptible to early degradations and failures. For optimal safety, you can also book for at least an annual inspection.
An electrical inspection condition report (EICR) certifies the safety and competency of your electrical wirings. For some states, it is a legal requirement. Most of the time, commercial and industrial businesses are also pushed to get an EICR since they have more people consuming electricity. It is usually issued after a rigorous inspection, and once electricians with a white card confirm electrical safety.
Electricians often provide any electrical repair service. They can tweak power lines, do rewirings, and handle replacements. Some of the most common issues that they can resolve include a sparking fuse, frequent surges, and flickering lights. They also handle repairs for electrical equipment and generators, appliances, and other fixtures.
Definitely! Taskers' services are not limited to electrical-related problems. If you don't have the time or skills to complete some of your DIY household tasks, we can also connect you with a trustworthy local handyman who can help! There's no task that is too big or too small. You can hire them to install carpets, curtains, and fix broken appliances or furniture. You can also commission them for wallpapering, bricklaying, and other building and construction tasks.
The rates of hiring an electrician near you can range from $40 to $50 per hour, depending on their skill level, specialty, urgency, and your location. Experienced or master electricians can charge $100 to $150 per hour.Â
The type of electrical work can also influence costs. Standard electrical work, like installations and wiring repairs, falls within the average range. For example, rates for downlight installation can range from $68 to $450. Specialised services can cost more; for instance, solar panel installation can cost $2,500 to $11,000.Â
You should also consider call-out fees, as many local electricians charge a call-out fee to cover travel costs.Â
It's always best to call licensed electricians when you notice any of the signs below:
- Unusual burning smells or smoke from outlets, appliances, or electrical panles
- Sparks or electrical arcing from outlets, switches, and appliances
- Downed power lines
- Electrical shocks from appliances, switches, and outlets
- Frequent tripping of circuit breakers or blown fuses
- Persistent flickering lights
- Buzzing sounds from outlets or switches
Hiring a good electrician near you is not only for electrical fixes; you can also get their services for installations and upgrades, such as:
- Switchboard upgrades
- High-power appliance installations
- Light installations
- Wiring for home automation or security systems
It is strongly advised against doing electrical work on your own unless you have the right qualifications for the job, as there are significant safety and legal implications involved in doing electrical work.Â
If you don't have the right certifications or licence, there are only a few tasks that you can do safely, such as changing light bulbs or resetting a tripped circuit breaker. Any work beyond these basic tasks should be left to licensed electricians.
