Our Electrical Services
One licensed team handles everything from a faulty power point to a full switchboard rebuild, with clear pricing before we start and a workmanship guarantee on every job. Pick a service below to find out more.
General Electrical
Faulty power points, ceiling fans, smoke alarms and everyday faults get sorted quickly and safely. Our general electrical team turns up fast with the right gear ready.
Residential Electrical
Detached houses and the growing number of unit complexes each need work matched to their build. Our residential electrical crew handles both, with pricing agreed before anything starts.
Commercial Electrical
Local shops around Hansford Road rely on power that will not let them down mid-trade. Our commercial electrical service keeps premises safe, compliant and open.
Electrical Repairs
When something stops working or behaves oddly, we track down the actual cause rather than guessing. Book electrical repairs for tripping circuits, dead outlets and ageing switchboard faults.
Home Security Installation
Cameras, sensor lighting and alarm systems installed properly, not bolted on as an afterthought. Our home security installation service suits family homes and villages alike.
Light Installation
Downlights, LED conversions and outdoor lighting lift a home and trim the power bill over time. Our light installation team fits it cleanly, exactly where it is wanted.
Switchboard Upgrades
Original boards from the 1980s and 90s were never built for today's aircon, pool and appliance loads. A switchboard upgrade adds safety switches and headroom for the household.
Smart Home Automation
Control lighting, power outlets and connected devices from your phone once it is wired correctly. Our smart home automation service keeps setups simple and genuinely safe.
Safety Inspections
Ahead of a sale, a new tenancy, or your own peace of mind, get the wiring checked properly. A safety inspection covers the board and every safety switch against current standards.
Data & Communications
Reliable internet, TV and network points are the backbone of a connected family home. Our data and communications team cables phones, ethernet and antennas neatly.
EV Charger Installation
More local driveways are adding an electric vehicle each year. Our EV charger installation service sizes the circuit correctly and wires it to standard.
What Coombabah Homes Need from Their Local Electrician
Coombabah grew from the early 1980s, with both local schools opening in 1981 and 1986, so brick-veneer houses from that build-out sit alongside a heavy concentration of over-50s lifestyle villages and unit complexes along Pine Ridge Road and Hansford Road. Communities such as Living Gems Emerald Gardens, Red Gum and Suncrest bring a steady stream of retiree homeowners wanting straightforward, well-explained work, alongside the young families in the surrounding streets.
Original 1980s and 90s switchboards are where a lot of our work comes from, since a good share of these homes still run their first board and predate mandatory safety switches. Fitting RCD protection across every circuit is one of our most common jobs here, and detached homes on larger blocks frequently need a dedicated, compliant circuit added for a pool or spa. Being flat and low-lying beside the wetlands, the suburb also gets a proper subtropical storm season, and a healthy set of safety switches is what keeps a wet-season fault from turning into a lost afternoon.
Locally, Oxley Drive and Pine Ridge Road are the main arterials, running past Coombabah State School and out toward the Lakelands Conservation Area and Coombabah Lake, with Hansford Road serving the IGA and the retirement villages. Power here runs through Energex, and whether the property is an original house or a newer unit near the lake, the fix is the same: work done properly, to standard, and left safe.
Emergency
When an Electrical Emergency Strikes in Coombabah, We Respond Fast
Certain faults cannot wait for a convenient time. Spot any of the following in your home and it is time to cut the circuit and call us straight away:
- A burning smell near a power point
- Sparking or scorched outlets
- The whole home has lost power
- A safety switch that keeps tripping
- Exposed or damaged wiring after a storm
- Lights flickering in more than one room
Same-day and emergency service is what we offer, we are frequently on site within the hour, and we do not leave until it is genuinely safe. In the meantime, switch off the circuit at the board and stay clear of it.

Common Electrical Issues We Fix Across Coombabah
Beyond the switchboard work covered above, this mix of established houses, units and lifestyle villages throws up a handful of other issues again and again. Here is what we see most often:
- No Safety Switches Homes built before safety-switch mandates, common across Coombabah's earlier stages, frequently lack RCD protection on every circuit, and we fit it as standard.
- Pool and Spa Circuits Many detached homes on larger blocks have pools or spas needing their own compliant, dedicated circuit rather than sharing an already stretched board.
- Overloaded Power Points Older boards asked to run modern appliances, aircon and entertainment gear often show up as warm switches or points that trip under load.
- Flickering Lights Ageing circuits in original 1980s homes commonly show up as flickering or dimming lights, usually pointing to a loose connection or overdue rewire.
- Weathered Outdoor Points A handful of homes fronting Coombabah Lake and its tidal creek see faster wear on outdoor switchgear, so a touch more attention to weatherproofing pays off there.
