Common questions

Pricing and Quotes

Money questions come first because they are the most common thing people want sorted before they call.

Do you charge a call-out fee?

No. We offer $0 call-out fees and free quotes, so you can get us out and get a price with nothing to pay up front. Every job gets fixed, upfront pricing before any work starts, so there are no surprises on the invoice.

How much does an electrician cost in Lisarow?

It depends on the job, which is why the quote is always free and given upfront. A power point repair costs less than a full switchboard upgrade, so we assess it first and give fixed pricing before anything starts.

How does electrical pricing work?

You get a free quote and fixed, upfront pricing before we start, so you know exactly what you are up for. We talk through the options with you on site, and $0 call-out means there is no pressure to say yes on the spot.

How do I pay, and when?

Payment is due on completion of the job, once you have agreed to the fixed price we quoted upfront. For larger jobs, ask about our flexible payment options when you book your quote, so bigger work does not have to wait.

Common questions

Licensing and Safety

This is the trust section, so we lead with the credentials that back every job.

Are your electricians licensed?

Yes. We are fully licensed and insured, Electrical Licence #451348C, licensed electricians and Level 2 ASPs. Level 2 ASP accredited means we are also accredited to work on the Ausgrid and Endeavour Energy networks. Every job is done to the Wiring Rules (AS/NZS 3000) and done right.

Do I need a licensed electrician to add power points?

Yes. In NSW, electrical work like adding or moving power points must be done by a licensed electrician, it is not a legal DIY job. It is about your home and your family being safe, not just following the rules. See our power points service.

Is your work insured and guaranteed?

Yes. We are fully licensed and insured, and every job is backed by a lifetime labour warranty. If something is not right, we come back and fix it, for as long as you own the home.

Is it safe to keep using a power point or switchboard that's playing up?

No. A burning smell, a hot outlet, or a breaker that keeps tripping is a warning sign, not a nuisance. Switch it off if you can do so safely and call a licensed electrician. See our guide to a burnt outlet for what to look out for.

Common questions

Emergency and Response Times

Speed matters when the power is out, so here is exactly what to expect.

How fast can you get to me in Lisarow?

We offer same-day service and 24/7 emergency availability across Lisarow and the surrounding Central Coast, and we turn up fast, often within the hour where availability allows. The phone is the fastest way to lock in a time.

Do you offer same-day service?

Yes, same-day service where availability allows. The earlier in the day you call, the better the odds of getting seen that same day. Free quote and $0 call-out either way.

Do you do emergency electrical work?

Yes. For urgent, unsafe faults, burning smells, sparks, or a dead switchboard, call us and we will get someone out. Do not wait on something that could be dangerous. See power outages and tripped circuit breaker for common emergency triggers.

Common questions

Our Services and What's Involved

Here is a plain-English rundown of what our most-asked-about jobs actually involve.

What's involved in a switchboard upgrade?

We assess the existing board, replace old ceramic fuses with modern safety switches (RCDs), and bring it up to current standards under AS/NZS 3000. This matters in Lisarow because a lot of the suburb's 1970s and 1980s homes still run original fuse boards. See our switchboard upgrades service.

Can you install extra power points and lighting?

Yes. Power points, downlights, indoor and outdoor lighting, LED upgrades, we handle it all. See our lighting service for the full scope of what we install.

Do you install EV chargers?

Yes. We install home EV chargers and check your switchboard can handle the added load first, which matters on older Lisarow homes with original wiring. See our EV charger installation service.

Can you check the switchboard and safety switches on an older home?

Yes. This is common across Lisarow's older brick-veneer and fibro housing, where many boards predate mandatory safety switches. We check the switchboard, safety switches, wiring and smoke alarms and give you a clear picture of what needs doing. See our switchboard upgrades service.

Are you Level 2 ASP accredited?

Yes. We are a Level 2 ASP, accredited to work on the Ausgrid and Endeavour Energy networks, so we handle service mains, metering, private pole and network connections, the work most electricians have to sub out. See our service mains service.

Do you do commercial electrical work too?

Yes, homes and businesses. See our general electrical service for the full scope.

Common questions

Local to Lisarow

A couple of questions specific to Lisarow itself and the area around it.

Do you actually service Lisarow?

Yes, Lisarow and the surrounding Central Coast suburbs including Narara, Ourimbah, Niagara Park and Wyoming. We are servicing the area, not based in a single showroom.

My home's older, is my switchboard up to standard?

Possibly not. A large share of Lisarow's housing stock dates from the 1970s and 1980s and still runs original ceramic fuse switchboards without modern safety switches, especially homes that have not been renovated. We will check it and let you know. See our switchboard upgrades service.

What should I do if a storm damages my power supply?

Lisarow sits in the Narara Creek catchment and sees heavy rain through storm season, which can affect service lines and mains. If your power supply looks damaged after a storm, stay well clear and call us. See our storm-damaged mains guide.
