Trade Partner Services

For builders, carpenters, and handymen.

If you run your own trade business and you need an electrician you can call without wondering whether they'll show up - that's what I'm here for.

I've spent 17 years in the trade, most recently as Site Supervisor on new builds. I understand how a construction site runs. I fit into your schedule, quote fast, and do clean work. Your clients won't hear a word about the electrical - because it'll be sorted.

I work with trades on a regular ongoing basis. If you've got a carpenter doing renovations, a builder running extensions, or a handyman hitting electrical scope regularly, let's have a conversation.

Renovations & New Builds

Renovations, extensions, granny flats, and new homes.

This is the work I enjoy most. Projects with scope - where the electrical needs planning, not just fixing.

If you're building a granny flat, adding an extension, converting a shed, or building a new home, I'll handle the full electrical from first fix through to certificate of compliance. I've done this at scale and I'll bring that experience to your project regardless of its size.

I work with owner-builders, homeowners coordinating their own renovation, and builders who need a sparky they can trust with their clients.

Full electrical fit-outs, first and second fix, switchboard installations, lighting design, power circuits, outdoor and underfloor heating, safety systems, certificate of compliance.

Safety first

Old switchboard? Worth a look even if nothing's wrong yet.

Ceramic fuses and missing safety switches aren't always urgent, but they're always worth knowing about. A 30-minute safety assessment tells you exactly where you stand.

Switchboard Upgrades & Safety

Switchboard upgrades and safety assessments.

Switchboard work is a specialty. I spent years in commercial construction focused on switchboard installations and I bring that expertise to residential work.

If your home is still running on ceramic fuses, or you don't have safety switches on all circuits, it's worth getting it looked at. Not because it's necessarily dangerous right now - but because it's better to know than not know, and an upgrade is a straightforward job when you're ready for it.

Specialty

Over a decade as a commercial switchboard specialist.

Most of my career has been spent on large commercial switchboards - installation, fault diagnosis, board design under serious load. I still take on commercial work, and I bring that same standard to every house I wire.

Property Manager Services

For real estate property managers.

I know what you need from a sparky: someone who picks up, shows up when they say they will, does the work properly, and sends you an invoice you can actually forward to a landlord.

I work with property managers on maintenance and compliance work across their portfolios. I respond fast, invoice clearly, and give you documentation you can file. If you've got a portfolio with properties that haven't had their electrical looked at in a while, I also offer compliance sweeps.
