O'Shea Electrical
EDITED and UPDATED I called O'Shea Electrical about my home's safety switch being triggered at different times. [Name Removed] attended on time and… Read more
spent time trying to find the fault. He was patient explaining the possible faults and options. His work was excellent and I was happy with the results.
UPDATE I've now taken a star off my initial 5 star review. The electrician who attended was 5 stars but the Certificate of Electrical Safety wasn't issued within a month as it should've been. It took over 6 weeks and some chasing up which isn't ideal. The people I spoke to on the phone were nice but no one called me back to follow up. After another call and email the COES was supplied that day. While all this was a bit of a hassle, I was happy with the actual job.

quite a long time to complete, being made hard under the rain. they persisted without any fuss, completed the installation and cleaned up carefully, thereafter the new units work well, worry free. I am impressed by their work and skills. they also made repeated effort to remove the junk of the old unit.
MSC Maintenance Sydney City
- See all
We initially contacted MSC Electricians for an emergency electrical call-out and engaged them to carry out extensive electrical work at our property.… Read more
We paid a significant amount, believing the work had been completed safely, professionally and in accordance with Australian electrical standards and code. Approximately three years later, another electrical fault occurred. A different licensed electrician inspected the installation and advised that the previous work had not been completed correctly or in compliance with the required electrical standards. The old cotton-insulated wiring had been left in place and connected to the new switchboard wiring instead of being properly replaced or rectified. This resulted in sparking and created a serious electrical safety hazard for the tenants living in the property. The quote from the new electrician is approximately the same as the amount we originally paid to MSC Electricians. The entire switchboard now needs to be replaced, along with all wiring from the mains supply to the switchboard, to ensure the electrical installation is safe and compliant. While I am extremely disappointed that this work has had to be redone at considerable expense, I am relieved knowing that the tenants will finally be safe from any further electrical hazards once the replacement work is completed. Based on our experience, I cannot recommend MSC Electricians. Rate of experience is negative infinity. The work was very expensive, yet it has now required substantial rectification. Safety should never be compromised, particularly when it places tenants and property at risk.

Andrew Belsak Electrical & Air Conditioning
Great service – Andrew & Vickie Belsak installed 2 Mitsubishi split systems in our house in June 2022 and we've been extremely happy with their performance. Today… Read more
31st October 2023 they serviced our evaporative air conditioner. In both instances Andrew was very quick to respond to our needs (very different to other tradespeople we've used), gave us a quote which we thought was reasonable, and the work was done on the day specified. Both Andrew & Vickie were very pleasant and obliging and we would not hesitate in recommending them to others.

Beyond the call – CONTACTED HI PAGES for electrician and had three responses. Blackout electrics were local and responded straight away setup time and Daniel sent quote that was reasonable we were replacing all light switches and upgrading to Solar.
HAPPY WITH THE WORK – Barlow Electricians installed a ceiling fan for me in the bedroom. At first there was a problem as there had been an extra storey added to the house,… Read more
and there was no roof space to install the wires for a wall mounted control. They rectified the problem by converting my fan to a remote control unit (they carry these remote control units for such problems). The control was extra, but no more than you'd pay at Bunnings or wherever. Installation only took an hour, including replacing a light switch in the laundry. Overall, quite happy with the completed work, service and reasonable cost.
1/ the quality of his work is outstanding. I've used some other electricians in the past and they don't come up to the same standard. 2/ he was… Read more
booked in for a certain time but couldn't make it. Yul gave me an SMS update that he was unavoidably delayed and would be at my house in 30 minutes. He arrived 29 minutes later.
3/ not always the cheapest BUT you get AMAZING service and quality components with EVERY job.

further. From the very first conversation with Jeremy Pol, we knew which way to proceed. Before supplying the quote, Jeremy visited us, had a good look at the site, discussed our needs and he suggested what we should aim for. And so, we did. And never regretted going along with his quote. As promised, the installation started as soon as North West weather permitted. Jeremy’s team, Lachlan, Ryder and Johnny worked very hard, always having time to answer our sometimes-silly questions. We were amazed how professional and competent they were at all times. The installation took 2 days - without hiccups. The job was done with amazing efficiency and care, so everything works and looks great. The cleanup at the end was done perfectly leaving us feeling sorry that these nice guys had to go. Thank you, guys, and wish you all the best in the future. Andre and Sue Wagner
Spruce Electrical
Spruce Electrical Pty Ltd for replacement of gas appliances with electric appliances – QUOTE: "Rental providers must have a gas safety check once every two years of all gas installations and fittings. This work must be carried out by a… Read more
gasfitter with Type A gas appliance servicing qualifications. For a full list of what the gas safety check covers, see the Consumer Affairs Victoria (CAV) website." UNQUOTE
On the 1st March 2023 I was advised that two investment properties that I own received fault notices following their recent Bi-Annual Gas Safety Check. In the past Gas appliances were mainly tested for Carbon Monoxide (CO) emissions. The gas Safety Check now includes negative pressure test that uses a portable smoke generator to observe if any smoke is drawn into the gas appliance.
Not all plumbers registered/licensed to install gas appliances are also licensed to perform Gas Safety Checks. These Bi-Annual Gas Safety Checks are important and only apply to rental properties (as do the Annual Smoke Detector Checks). The two fault notices one because of a cracked Braemar (less than 10 years old) Wall Furnace and the second Braemar (20 years cold) wall furnace because of a negative pressure test result. The quote to replace these two units will cost me in excess of $7000.00 as it is not viable to repair either Braemar Wall Furnace.
Any Gas appliance that receives a negative pressure test result or other defect such as cracked heat exchanger is immediately decommissioned (gas turned off). In additional, a 30 day notice/demand to replace the gas appliance or remove it completely and have the gas capped (permanently disconnected).
I contacted Spruce Electrical Pty Ltd to organise the removal the Wall furnaces and replace with a Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Split air conditioning system that in the short term and in the long run will be more cost effective.
My gas upright cooker was also faulted (poor oven door seal and gas top burners deemed unserviceable) so I have booked Spruce Electrical Pty Ltd to replace the gas cooker with an electric upright cooker. Total cost to disconnect, cap the gas, remove old cooker and, supply a Chef Fan Forced electric upright cooker, install the cooker, wire new circuit to switchboard and test new stove is $1,700.00 Once again, I highly recommend Spruce Electrical Pty Ltd for all Electrical installations (new installation or replacement of air conditioners and replacement of gas stoves with an electric stove). Spruce Electrical Pty Ltd work hand in hand with an excellent, professional and, competitive licensed plumber. All aspects of the conversion from gas to Electricity are professionally organised by Spruce Electrical Pty Ltd at a very timely and competitive rate.
15 downlights replaced plus outdoor lights. Neat and tidy work with care taken around all furnishings. Most importantly work was done promptly and at a competitive and reasonable rate.

by txt and finally pretended it wasn’t him who did the work!! Terrible standard. Didn’t use proper covers to hide pipes but bogged up buts of plastic. Very over friendly to the point of inappropriate. I now have to get another electrician in to fix it all up.

out fee offer, what i didn't know was how they would take advantage by charging 1 and a quarter hours to do the diagnosis, (having told him it's been looked at before and is more than likely gone) at $160 per hour to bring it neatly to $200 plus GST $20 and then 2 days to hear anything to bring the problem up to Friday afternoon and the tenant having no stove for the weekend and me scrambling to get one there and fitted ASAP. I checked with multiple sources regarding the validity of the time spent and most agreed 15 miutes at least to up to 45 minutes if all the wiring needed looking at, contacting Fair services was of no help as it take about 11 weeks to have the case heard by an adjudicator so they are of little help. Needless to say this is one firm that can not bet relied on or trusted, and i would have been happy had he just fixed the issue and sent the bill rather than have the double dipping happening. would rather have not had to take this action.
Think twice before using these guys – Good Guys gave me a good price on an electric oven and what I thought was a good price on the install. HOWEVER, their electrician (MIG Electrical)… Read more
wanted extra saying he had to change the electrical board and run a new cable (4 Metres long). I understand the need for the new cable and RCD, but "extra" cost of $780 for this work, considering they never actually changed the electrical board, I find extreme, since I had already paid $344 to the Good Guys for the install. This means that to fit a wall oven and remove the old one MIG Electrical got a total of $1124 for the install! All up around 1 hours work and $70 for parts if that.
Seems like a rip off with the Good Guys taking money for the install and then their electrician MIG Electrical upping the charge with the customer!
We engaged a custom builder to build our dream home in Forster NSW. We expected all trade/sub contractor aspects of the build to be completed to the… Read more
exacting standards of our builder; and even more so as this would be a custom build that cost us accordingly.
Unfortunately that was not the case when it came to the electrical side of things.
Key points that we experienced : - upon 2 or so walk throughs with the electrician he did not take notes etc re my instructions regarding changes etc - my builder advised that the electrician does not provide a finalised plan. We did receive a hand scribbled plan after I insisted. However, I did not scrutinise it and unfortunately that was to our detriment. - when it comes to lighting, more is better. I stuck to my guns with some areas but regretably heeded the advice from our so called expert eg, in our oversized garage, which I now regret. - two way light switches did not eventuate. Whilst one has been retro fitted another is not possible. - light switch installed in the most inconvenient position with no prior consultation with us. (Retrofit was gratefully offered by our builder however did not resolve the situation.) - the only real advice I received involved saving some money by installing less premium switches in the garage and installing less lights. I would have preferred some actual constructive advice suggesting more lights be installed along the 22 steps of our sloping side passage. - instead of installing more light on our sloping side passage (access to rear yard) as stipulated our dead end side passage had more lights installed. - the electrician rang me one day and explained he was installing a bar light same as ours and asked me to measure it for him rather than he find out via other means. Really. - my overall impression was the the electrician was more focussed on personal matters and did not give our project the attention it required resulting in a less than satisfactory outcome for our build.
They are back today to rectify a missed two way switch which I am grateful for.
These may be considered minor issues arising by my lack of diligence by many but we specifically engaged a custom builder at considerable cost and have been let down by a less than diligent electrician.
Whilst we would engage our builder (SCF Custom Builders) ten times over, it would be on the proviso that W and J Green was NOT the electrician engaged.
