What do sockets and switches installation services include?

Trained and certified electricians work on socket and light switch installation tasks so you won't have to compromise you and your home's overall safety. They can assemble wirings and cable, connect them to power sources, and inspect if the electricity is flowing adequately right after. Thinking of booking our switch installation service? Here's what you can expect:

Powerpoint installation

Before installing your appliances, it's crucial to secure enough power points to support the electricity flow. Electricians can help you plan, install, and replace or add powerpoints to maximise your area. They start by inspecting your place to identify specific spots where you'll likely need power sockets. The installation process typically involves:

  • unscrewing the cover plates
  • retesting the power source
  • connecting extra cables to existing electrical outlets and stretching them to different locations
  • rewiring cables to the new electrical socket or powerpoint
  • Light switch installation

Light switches are responsible for connecting your electrical lights to the power source. If you need to replace an existing light switch, your electrician can disconnect them for you. Keep in mind, however, that the replacement switch needs to have the same functionality as the old one.

We can help install new light switches if you're in the process of building a new home or renovating your bathroom or kitchen. The process mostly involves rewiring and connecting new cables to the power source and mounting new faceplates. In case you want multi-purpose electrical lights, you can also request for dimmer switch installation.

Outdoor electrical socket installation

Professional electricians can also install outdoor sockets on your balcony, patio, or turf. This way, it's easier and safer to connect your appliances, especially if you're planning to have an outdoor kitchen or barbeque area. 

It's also essential to consider the size of the landscape area, the structure conditions, and all the equipment you're planning to utilise. Electricians can handle the drill, connect cables from indoor to outdoor wall, and rewire your new outdoor electrical outlets accordingly.

Bypass and remove residential light switches x10

$100

Bondi Beach NSW, Australia

26th Aug 2024

I have smart lights operating with zigbee and wish to remove the physical switches from the wall, leaving the lights hard-wired on. A wireless functional switch will be used, and the device itself is capable of switching, which meets AS/NZ3000:2018. There is a breaker in the switchboard for isolation. Wall repair will not be required within the quote. There are about 10 switches to remove, and I will unscrew the faceplates before your arrival so that you only need to disconnect the switch and connect the appropriate wires together, wrap with insulation tape and push into the wall. I am aware there are some dimmers - I don’t need these.

Replace switches on two table lamps and a floor lamp

$200

Randwick NSW, Australia

24th Apr 2024

I have three lamps which aren’t working: two table lamps and a floor lamp. Not the globes- I did try those. I replaced a switch on one of them (naughty I know) but that hasn’t fixed that lamp. Not sure about the other two and whether a simple switch replacement will fix them. The work could be done at my place, they could be taken away. I could bring them to you if that would make it cheaper

Shahriar arrived right on time, examined the items closely amd explained the faults he had to fix. Very satisfied
