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.Â
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.

Replacement of switches on new Tiffany Lamps (x2).
$300
Tarneit VIC, Australia
29th Dec 2024
Hi Adam, I recently purchased just before Christmas, two new Tiffany lamps. They have light in the base with two lights on the top piece (a picture can be provided if needed). A day after purchase, I heard a crackling sound from one of the switches, then flickering of the lights. Obviously a short in the wiring at the switch site. Both are now off and unplugged as I don't want to risk a fire. I love the lamps, so a return is not an option to the seller. Looking for someone to fix and do it right. Ultimately, if possible since these need to be fixed anyways, hoping to put in a tri-light solution. i.e. 1. all lights on, 2. only bottom light on, 3. only top lights on, 4. all lights off. Not sure if this is possible, but willing to pay a little extra should this be doable. Either way, the switches need to be replaced to code and give peace of mind they won't start a fire. No rush on this, looking at mid January for this job. Thanks. Budget (next page) based on whether just switches replaced (up to $200) or full rewiring to include the tri-light option as proposed earlier (up to $400). Next page is the median.
