All our installations meet legal safety requirements, and we can also test or replace aging units. It’s a small investment that can save lives and prevent costly fire damage.

Electrical issues aren’t just inconvenient — they can be dangerous. We specialise in fault finding and diagnostics using advanced tools to pinpoint issues accurately. Whether it’s a tripping breaker, wiring fault, or intermittent outage, we identify and fix the root cause efficiently. Restore peace of mind and ensure your system is functioning safely and properly.

Make your outdoor spaces come alive at night with professionally installed garden lighting. We design and install lighting systems that highlight landscape features, illuminate walkways, and increase security. Our solutions are energy efficient, durable, and built to withstand the elements.

Our energy efficiency audits assess how your property uses power and where you can improve. We examine lighting, appliances, wiring, and overall system performance, then provide a tailored report with clear, actionable steps. Save on electricity bills, reduce your environmental impact, and create a more efficient home or business through practical, expert guided upgrades.

General Lighting

We provide complete general lighting solutions to suit every room and requirement, from kitchens and hallways to commercial spaces. Our team helps you select the right fixtures, install them safely, and ensure they meet both aesthetic and practical needs. Whether upgrading outdated fittings or installing new lights, we deliver lighting that’s safe, functional, and stylish.

Patrick installed a Zappi type 2 charger for my new EV. I’m really happy with the job he did. He is very customer and safety focused. He took the time to understand my needs and went above and beyond to implement a really great setup for me.

Patrick has done a couple of electrical jobs for me recently and I couldn’t be happier. His communication is excellent and he is always punctual. I needed a new LED light installed in the kitchen, a smoke detector replaced and a new one installed. Patrick did an excellent job and he upgraded my switchboard to make it safer and compliant. House feels much safer!! His quotes were timely and very reasonable.
It was a pleasure having Patrick in my home as not only is he is an excellent electrician, but also a very nice guy. Very happy I found him.

We have used Patricks electrical services for many years now, initially in North Balwyn then in Balwyn. He has a great 'can do' attitude and is both reliable and cheerful. I would highly recommend his work. Janie and James

Patrick has been to our house twice over the past 6 months or so doing different jobs. He is punctual,polite and trustworthy. Work was carried out promptly and at competitive pricing.
He is very neat and always cleans up after himself. (A craft that has been lost with other tradies we have used!)
We can confidently recommend Patrick for your electrical needs.

Patrick was great, from communication to quality of work everything was amazing. Patrick talked us through all our options so we could make the best possible most informed decision. Patrick was super clear in explaining everything and was always on time and finished everything to a high quality. Recommend 100% 🙂

When a small job turned into a whole-house rewire, Patrick took on the challenge. In an old house he had to crawl through dust and cobwebs under the floor and in the ceiling. He worked tirelessly and without complaint. For dedicated, professional work at reasonable rates we cannot recommend him highly enough! Excellent!
