What Sets the Price of a Rental Electrical Job
We give a fixed price before any work starts, so the owner can approve it first. These are the things that move the number.
- The fault. A tripped circuit is quicker to fix than burnt wiring.
- Parts. A new power point, smoke alarm or safety switch.
- Smoke alarms. Whether existing alarms comply or need replacing.
- The switchboard. Old fuses or no room may mean an upgrade.
- Access. Tenant access, several units or a strata building.
Strata and body corporate
Leasing a Unit in a Strata Building?
Some electrical work in a unit block may sit with the body corporate, not the owner. We do electrical work in units and common areas for owners and body corporates.
Property Manager Electrician FAQ
Questions Gold Coast property managers and landlords ask us.
Do you work with property managers on the Gold Coast?
Yes. We do tenant repairs, smoke alarm and safety switch work, and rental safety checks for property managers, landlords and owners across the Gold Coast and Tweed Heads. Send us the address, the tenant's contact details and who approves the quote. We give a fixed price before any work starts, and we take emergency call-outs 24/7 when something can't wait.
How do quotes work when the owner has to approve them?
We inspect first, then give one fixed price before any work starts, so you can send it to the owner for approval. There's no hourly rate, so the price doesn't grow if the job takes longer than expected. If we find something else that needs fixing while we're there, we tell you and quote it before doing it.
What counts as an emergency electrical repair in a rental?
The RTA lists a dangerous electrical fault, a failure of the electricity supply, and a breakdown of a hot water, cooking or heating appliance as emergency repairs. The tenant should contact the emergency contact in the tenancy agreement first. We take emergency call-outs 24/7, make the fault safe, and give you a fixed price for the repair before it starts.
Can you check a rental between tenancies?
Yes, and it's the easiest time to do it. The home is empty, and the smoke alarms have to be tested within 30 days before the next tenancy anyway. We can check the safety switches, smoke alarms and switchboard, explain what we found, and quote any fixes at a fixed price so the owner can approve them before the new tenant moves in.
What if the rental has no safety switch on the power points?
The owner must have one installed within 90 days after a new tenancy starts, under the Electrical Safety Regulation 2026. With a few exceptions, an electrician also can't do installation work in a home without one unless the job includes fitting it. So it's worth sorting before you book other electrical work at the property.
Do you work in units and strata buildings?
Yes. We do electrical work inside units and in common areas. In a unit block, some wiring and equipment may be the body corporate's responsibility rather than the owner's, so it helps to know who looks after what before a job is quoted. If part of a job sits with the body corporate, we'll tell you before we start.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. We hold Queensland Electrical Contractor Licence 1511406 and are fully insured, with more than 20 years of residential, commercial and industrial experience. You can check any electrical contractor's licence on the Electrical Safety Office's online licence search. Our workmanship is backed by a lifetime warranty, so if our work fails, we come back and fix it.
What should a tenant do if they get a tingle from a tap?
Call Energex on 13 19 62 straight away, as the Electrical Safety Office advises. Don't touch the switchboard, meter box, appliances or metal fixtures such as taps until the property is made safe, and get medical advice even if you feel fine. If someone is hurt or there's a fire, call 000 first. Once it's safe, we can find the fault.
