Do not use them
We had an electrical board replaced. We had to wait six weeks for the Certificate of Electrical Safety to be given to us, i.e. the inspector signed it on 14 Feb, we were given it today (31/3). Your electrician arrived at our house today. He had not contacted us to tell us he was coming. Her handed the Certificate to my partner and then refused to leave unless she used his phone to payment payment. My partner refused as she did not think it was reasonable to risk her health (COVID-19) to pay a bill. He refused to leave our house unless payment was made. Are there stand over tactics normal and what would Energy Safe Victoria think of them being used to extract payment (on the spot) for the Certificate that took six week to be given to us.

Exorbitant price
The first electrician came by to assess the installation of bathroom heat lamps, then he said our switchboard 8 switches needed to be changed, that would cost total of $2500+. Then he said there’s complimentary assessment of smoke detectors included in the call out fee, upon checking, he said our smoke detectors were out dated and required replacement, that would cost another almost $1000 for 2 smoke detectors. I was hesitant but seeing eventually that will need to be replaced, so reluctantly agreed to the price. However, I reckoned he jacked u...Read more
p all the price, seeing this Covid-19 crisis, getting desperate and taking advantage of every single job. I asked for the itemized invoice to show me the breakdown of the work and cost, but nothing was provided. The job has been competed by another electrician from the same company today, he did a great job. However, the whole pricing was ridiculous and ripped off. I haven’t received a single invoice listing each work item cost, only an electrical certificate. Job no: 374137. This would be my first and last using them.2 comments

Ripped off
I would advise not to use this company. We had [name removed] come out to fix our ducted heating unit. Replaced two parts on it and charged my wife $3000. Have since found out the parts are worth around $400 each and could have had the job done for around $1000. Trust is a word I rate highly, they have destroyed this for me. My wife was inconsolable! Waiting to hear back from them with justification. Job no 373830. By the way 1 star was generous, and that’s me being honest. Honesty there’s another word they could look up

Rip Off Rectified by Company
My son called Service Today on my advice (March 2020), to attend to a electric plug problem. The electrician provided a quote ($250) and attended to the matter, As he was already at the house, my son asked that he attend to another plug, which was a rour minute job, the electrician was super efficient, but did not tell his that it would cost a further $250. We contacted the company, and to their credit, they investigated the matter, and promptly offered to refund the amount for the second invoice. A very professional response. Thank you.

Impressive work and super efficient
Job# 365792
These guys were super efficient . From calling the office and discussing my issue, to receiving a quote - all within two hours of my call. The timeframe for getting the electrician to my place was impressive. And the electrician guys were very professional and very knowledgeable, they installed and corrected the installation of our rangehood and electric oven. Our home is an older home which presented the potential of being fatal. They even cleaned up nicely after themselves. And the price was really reasonable. Can't recommend this team highly enough. Thank you!

Gavin is such a pleasant guy, communication 10/10. Explained what needed to be done before starting the work.
On completion Gavin explained situations that we had no knowledge of which was extremely useful when we need to make a claim. If you are looking for an honest, helpful and pleasant person I totally recommend Gavin. If ever we are in need of electrical work we will definately ask for Gavin.

Horrible experience
Very bad company with bad customer service . Took advantage of an elderly person and charged her $280 for a call out without coming to fix a job. On asking for a refund we were refused. So a phone call costs over $200!!! Just ludicrous!!! After spending over $10,000 in the past with this company and as a VIP with this company they didnt care for the customer and never came to the job.
Would not recommend this company.
Very unhappy customer.

Blocked shower drain - absolute rip off
Got charged $325 for a bottle of drain-o-flush that a plumber buys from Reece for $43.
Two days later drain blocks again. Give them a call and they say oh sorry but we will have to send someone out again but youll have to pay the $49 call out fee again and whatever work he does the next time. We dont warrant our work sorry about that.
Plumber should have told me that before he poured a $43 bottle of drainage flush and charged $325.
And they also charge $205 to push a plunger up and down a couple of times.
Would never recommend to anyone. Rip people off with their over pricing and nit fixing the problem. Would never use again
