Emergency FAQs:

How fast can you get to an emergency in Bankstown?

Do you charge a call-out fee for emergencies?

No. We confirm the cost of the work before we start, so you know the price upfront even in the middle of the night.

My safety switch keeps tripping. Is that an emergency?

It can be. One that keeps tripping is detecting a genuine fault and should not be forced back on. Leave it off and call us to find the cause safely.

Commercial power failures are a priority for us. We aim to be on-site within 30 minutes and carry the tools and parts to get most faults fixed on the first visit, so you are trading again as quickly as possible.

What counts as an electrical emergency?

Anything with a fire or shock risk, or that leaves you without power. Unsure? Call and we will help you decide whether it can wait.

Will I be speaking to a real electrician when I call?

Yes. Day or night you reach a real person who can help straight away.
