Electrical work in Queensland is licensed work - every job from a new GPO to a full re-wire must be done by a licensed electrician. The Electrical Safety Office takes that seriously, and so do we. Listings here include licence claims, reviews, and reply-time stats.

For anything safety-related - sparking outlets, burning smells, blackouts that aren't your neighbour - treat it like an emergency. Most SE QLD electricians offer same-day or next-day call-outs and will quote on the spot. For planned work - adding power points during a renovation, upgrading the switchboard, installing EV chargers - plan a few weeks ahead so you can compare quotes properly.

If you're moving into a new place, a $150-$250 safety inspection is cheap insurance against finding out the previous owner DIY'd half the kitchen circuit. Many electricians offer that as a flat-rate service.
