Down lights requiring a qualified electrician to fix.
$200
Ascot Vale VIC 3032, Australia
30th Dec 2025
I require a qualified electrician to fix a total of 4 down lights in my property. I have five total downlights that require fixing; three downlights are connected to each other in the hallway (2 small and one standard) and all three use the same 2 light switches. The other two downlights are separate. One is on a ceiling approx 3 meters high, so a ladder is required. The globes on the downlights have been replaced and the lights are still not working, therefore maybe a wiring/transformer issue. Qualified/licensed electricians only please.
Great job, friendly nice guy.
