Licensed Electrician Needed to Fault-Find & Repair Lighting Circuit
$150
South Yarra VIC 3141, Australia
9th Sep 2025
Job Details: We require a qualified and licensed electrician to attend our retail store on Chapel Street to diagnose and repair a fault in our back-of-house lighting circuit. The Problem: Two lights in our staff area (storage room and bathroom) are not working. Important Information from Previous Electrician: An electrician has already attended and confirmed the following: - This is NOT a simple globe replacement. The issue is a lack of power to the light fittings. - The light fittings themselves are brand new and confirmed to be in working order (they were tested on a separate power point). - The fault is believed to be in the ceiling wiring or the circuit itself. - The job requires fault-finding and repair, not just installation. Key Requirements for the Tasker: - You must be a licensed and insured electrician in Victoria. - You MUST bring a 10ft (approx. 3m) ladder. The previous electrician could not access the roof/ceiling space without one. This is essential to complete the job. - You must have your own tools for electrical diagnostics and repair. Scope of Work: 1. Attend the store. 2. Use the 10ft ladder to safely access the ceiling/roof space. 3. Diagnose the electrical fault causing the power outage to the two back-of-house lights. 4. Repair the fault if it can be completed within a reasonable timeframe (e.g., loose connection, simple wiring fix). 5. If the issue is more complex and requires significant parts or labour, please provide a clear quote for the required work before proceeding. 6. Ensure the area is left clean and tidy. The goal is to have the lights fully operational again. Please only make an offer if you are a qualified electrician with the required ladder and are experienced in fault-finding. Thank you.

I had my hot water heater replaced recently with this https://www.samedayhotwaterservice.com.au/product/rheem-stainless-steel-80-litre-hot-water-system/?gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=17613708470&gclid=Cj0KCQjwyIPDBhDBARIsAHJyyVhhPaId09ffQ6ACr80L9LZZA9X07VymvcEmnsxiEFNso2Q7tQLXy9gaAkYDEALw_wcB and the tech installed it set to a fairly low temperature, which he said he was required to do. I have the manual and a little key thing that he left for me (pictured) but I can't for the life of me figure out how to adjust the temp, and the manual only says to get an electrician to do it. Just looking for someone who knows their way around a unit to bump it up for me! I work from home so during the day is best. Unit is easily accessible in a hall cupboard.


Thanks for the help, and spotting the leak issue.

Electrician for home cinema

An old home cinema and sound system left behind by previous home owner that needs de cluttering. I don’t believe I should need all these wiring but too afraid to remove something important. They all seem to be connected behind the tv through a hole in a wall and then come out through other hole into one of the cabinet at the back of the room. Will also appreciate advice on a new TV and sound system if you are knowledgeable in that


Well done Justin! Thanks for today
