FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Do you charge extra for emergency call-outs?

Emergency and after-hours call-outs may attract a higher rate than standard jobs. We’ll always be upfront about any additional costs before attending.

What if I’m not sure if it’s an emergency?

When in doubt, call us. It’s always better to get a professional assessment than to ignore a potential hazard. We’ll help you determine the urgency over the phone.

Should I call an emergency electrician or my energy provider?

If the issue is on your property (switchboard, wiring, power points), call an electrician. If the outage affects the whole street, contact your energy distributor (e.g. United Energy or CitiPower).

Can you fix the issue in one visit?

In most cases, yes. Our vans are stocked with common parts and materials so we can resolve most emergency faults on the spot. Complex issues may require a follow-up appointment.
