Replace Old Pin Light Fittings with Modern Screw-In Fixtures

$300

Surry Hills, New South Wales

26th Oct 2025

I have six light fittings that currently use 2-pin (push-in) sockets, but I have GU10 twist-style globes that I want to use instead. Each fitting appears to have an individual transformer in the ceiling. If possible, I’d like to keep using my existing GU10 smart bulbs (IKEA Tradfri). I already use these in other fixtures in the house and they’re smart lights controlled in the IKEA app, so ideally new fixtures will be compatible with those screw-in E16 globes. I need someone to replace these old fittings with a modern fixture that’s compatible with standard screw-in globes (or advise the best fixture type and install it). I don't know if ceiling access is possible. Looking for: • Qualified electrician • Supply + install new fittings • Ensure everything is safely wired and compliant Please include an approximate total cost (labour + parts) in your offer.

Upgrades recording studio for electrical and installation work.

$500

Surry Hills NSW 2010, Australia

20th Sep 2025

We’re planning a few upgrades to our recording studio space in Surry Hills and would like a quote for electrical and installation work. The scope mainly involves new power points, lighting adjustments, and mounting equipment. Ideally, someone who can handle both electrical work and installation of heavy roof/wall-mounted materials. The panels to be installed on the roof are going in to gyprock, there are studs which need to be located and carefully drilled in to, so someone with experience in this area is preferred. We’d suggest a site visit beforehand so we can walk you through the space and finalise a plan to complete everything efficiently. Please let us know if you'd like to arrange a time to inspect the work to be done before quoting. The building has a loading dock. Key Details: - Electrical Work: - De-commission an existing light fitting and install new power plugs in Rooms B and C. (see attached photos) - Install a wall switch on the front wall with the ability to toggle power on timed increments (digital timer or smart switch with scheduling capability – open to your recommendation). (see attached example) - Wall & Ceiling Installations: - Mount 3x acoustic clouds (1 large, 2 smaller) to the ceiling. - Install 3x ceiling-mounted curtain rails and curtains. - Mount a TV to the wall Cheers, Joe
