Ferntree Gully Electrician
solve your electrical problems

Your Local Electrical Team

Based in Ferntree Gully, our team provides electrical services for homes and small businesses across Melbourne’s Eastern Suburbs.

Older homes in our area weren’t designed for how we live today. Not enough power points, old dim lighting and switchboards that are starting to struggle when lots of appliances are running at once.

Sometimes the issues are urgent, like the power going out when you turn the kettle on and other times it’s more about updating your home by adding new lighting, electric vehicle chargers, security systems, cooling and even complete renovations.

As a small local team, we take pride in doing things properly and making sure every job is done right the first time. Get in touch for a free quote if you need any electrical work done at your home or business.

    Most recently he installed a split system air conditioner and did a switchboard upgrade for me, both jobs were done to a really high standard. Neat cabling, everything tested and explained, and the worksite was left spotless when he was finished.

How We Help Local Home & Business Owners

Lighting Installation and Upgrades

Most homes around here still have the halogen downlights they were built with. They run hot, fail every year or two, and cost several times what an LED does for the same light. Swapping them is one of the most common jobs we do, and in most ceilings it works off the existing openings.

Beyond that it's feature lighting for kitchens and living areas, proper light at the bathroom vanity instead of behind your head, and outdoor lighting that makes the yard usable after dark.

Home Electrical Services

Switchboards are where most jobs start. Ceramic fuses, no safety switches and a board with nowhere left to add a circuit is the single most common thing we find, and it's what stops people adding air conditioning or a charger.

Alongside that it's extra power points, smoke alarms, appliance connections, repairs and fault finding when a safety switch keeps tripping.

Renovation Electrical Work

On a renovation the electrical goes in before plaster and again after the finishes, so the decisions come earlier than most people expect. Once the splashback is on, moving a power point means cutting it out again.

We work from your plans or your cabinet maker's drawings, mark out every point and light with you before rough-in, and coordinate timing with your builder.

EV Charger Installation

Charging off a standard power point is slow and was never meant to be a long term arrangement. A wall charger on its own circuit does the job properly, and it's the fastest growing part of our work.

Every install starts with the switchboard, because that decides whether the house can carry the charger. We check it before you order anything rather than on installation day.

Cooling and Ventilation

Almost every house has one room that never cools down, usually the west facing bedroom or the one the ducted system never quite reaches. A split system there costs far less to run than pushing the whole house harder.

Ceiling fans do the same job for a fraction again in bedrooms, and a bathroom exhaust that actually clears the room keeps moisture out of your ceiling.

See our cooling installations →

Home Security and Cameras

The problem with most home cameras isn't the camera, it's that they went up where there happened to be a power point rather than where the useful view is. Hardwired cameras in the right positions beat a yard full of battery ones.

Sensor lighting on the side path and driveway is the cheapest improvement most homes can make, provided it's aimed so it triggers for people rather than passing traffic.

Emergency Electrical

A burning smell, a warm switch plate, exposed wiring or a safety switch that will not reset are the ones worth acting on straight away. Switch that circuit off at the board and give us a call.

Response times depend on where we are and what's already booked, but we prioritise genuine emergencies across Ferntree Gully and the surrounding suburbs and will tell you honestly when we can be there.

Asked questions

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Pricing depends on the type of work required. Smaller jobs like installing power points or replacing light fittings are typically charged at an hourly rate, while larger projects such as switchboard upgrades, renovations or EV charger installations are quoted upfront. We provide clear, fixed pricing before starting any work so you know exactly what to expect.

  • If your home still has ceramic fuses, experiences frequent power trips, or you are adding new appliances like air conditioning or an EV charger, a switchboard upgrade may be required. Modern switchboards improve safety, meet current regulations and handle higher electrical loads more reliably.

  • Yes. We install dedicated EV charging circuits and wall-mounted chargers for homes across Ferntree Gully and the eastern suburbs. We first assess your switchboard capacity to ensure it can safely support the charger and upgrade protection devices if required.
