FAQs
What types of electrical fixtures do you specialise in for quick, hassle-free installation in Newcomb?
We install a wide range of domestic and light-commercial fixtures, including LED down-lights, pendant lights, ceiling fans, exhaust fans, dimmer or smart switches, additional power points, outdoor security lights, and appliance connection points. All products we stock are chosen for ease of mounting, pre-terminated wiring options, and compatibility with Australian voltage and safety standards, which helps shorten on-site installation time.
Can I install these fixtures myself, or do I need a licensed electrician in Victoria?
In Victoria, any work that involves wiring, connecting to mains power, or altering an existing circuit must be performed by a licensed A-Grade electrician. DIY installation of hard-wired fixtures is illegal and voids product warranties and home insurance. Our team is fully licensed and familiar with local regulations in the Greater Geelong area, ensuring your installation is compliant and safe.
How soon can I book an electrical fixture installation appointment in the Newcomb area?
For most standard fixtures we can offer next-business-day service if you call before 2 pm. During peak periods, the average wait is 2–3 business days. Emergency replacements (e.g., failed lighting in essential areas) are prioritised and can usually be handled the same day. You can book online or by phone, and we’ll confirm an exact two-hour arrival window the evening before.
What do I need to do before the electrician arrives?
Please clear furniture and fragile items from the work area, make sure ceiling or wall cavities are accessible, and have any customer-supplied fixtures ready in their original packaging with instructions. If you’re renting, obtain written permission from the property manager. Turning off sensitive electronics at the wall is also recommended while we isolate circuits for testing.
Are the fixtures you install energy-efficient and compliant with Australian standards?
Yes. We only supply products that carry Australian Electrical Equipment Safety System (EESS) certification and meet MEPS energy-efficiency requirements. For lighting, we favour high-lumen LED fittings that use up to 85 % less power than halogens, and for fans we recommend brushless DC motors. All fixtures come with manufacturer documentation and compliance markings (RCM) for your records.
What warranties and after-sales support do you provide?
All labour is covered by a five-year workmanship guarantee, and most fixtures we supply include a manufacturer warranty of three to seven years, depending on the product. If a fault occurs, contact us and we’ll arrange assessment within 48 hours. Warranty claims include parts and labour at no extra cost within the Newcomb and broader Geelong region.
