Pre-purchase electrical inspections
A pre-purchase electrical inspection is a professional assessment of a property's electrical system to identify safety hazards, outdated wiring, and non-compliant installations before a buyer commits to the purchase. It helps you understand the electrical condition, budget for potential repairs, and negotiate with the seller. A typical inspection includes checking the power box, safety switches, smoke alarms, and all wiring, power points, and lights.
Electrical rental safety checks
Electrical safety checks for rental properties are required every two years and must be performed by a licensed electrician. Checks include inspecting and testing the switchboard, wiring, safety switches, and power points, and ensuring that any unsafe appliances are replaced. Landlords must maintain records of the check and provide them to renters upon request.

Fuseboard and switchboard upgrades
Upgrading your fuseboard or switchboard is one of the most important electrical improvements you can make. In Victoria, this work must be carried out by a licensed electrician — and for good reason. A modern switchboard greatly reduces the risk of electric shock, fire hazards and unexpected power issues. Keep your home safe, compliant and running efficiently with a professional upgrade you can rely on.
Safety switch testing and installation
Ensuring your home is protected starts with a functioning safety switch (Residual Current Device, or RCD). Testing your safety switch is quick and easy — simply press the built-in “test” button to verify it will trip immediately and cut power in the event of an electrical fault. This simple check could prevent serious injury or even save a life. For added protection, professional installation or upgrades by a licensed electrician ensure your safety switch is correctly installed and fully compliant with current safety standards.
TV antenna installation and repairs
Upgrading or replacing an older antenna can significantly improve picture quality, boost signal efficiency, and unlock modern features for your home entertainment. Whether you need enhanced reception, access to digital channels, or compatibility with the latest TV technology, the right antenna makes all the difference. Deciding to upgrade depends on the age of your existing TV cabling, your desired features, and your budget — and our expert team can help you make the best choice.
Underground power supplies
Underground power supplies provide enhanced safety, greater reliability with less weather-related damage, and a cleaner, more attractive appearance compared to overhead lines. Wherever possible, we use this method for sheds, new outbuildings, and additions such as granny flats, ensuring a safe, reliable, and visually appealing power solution.
