However, in this time the availability, quality and reliability of trade services has substantially decreased leaving customers and businesses alike disappointed. Recognising an opportunity to meet customer needs where the industry was lacking - reliability, quality and punctuality - Florance Electrical was founded by Alex Florance and Courtney Sim-Gully, two born and bred Territorians. Florance Electrical is an electrical contracting firm located in Darwin, Northern Territory offering services in construction, certification, inspections and preventative maintenance. Florance Electrical aims to deliver quality, affordable electrical services, in a punctual and friendly manner.

The work was done well, and quickly. The guys who came were good, and the initial quote reasonable. Work was for an outdoor outlet to be replaced, the guys let me know it wasn't a standard outlet so to replace it would be costly, so opted to stick with the standard one they brought (and quoted). However on the second call I was told I'd need two installed, side by side. When I asked how much extra I was told only the cost of the extra outlet. I received the bill and it had extra labour tacked on bringing it to over $200 labour for less then an hours work. They're rates are $130.62 an hour, but fter a number of emails and phone calls they're only response to the additional labour charge was because there was additional work. We won't be using them again because of this.
Hey Elaine, Thank you for your feedback on our service, we appreciate you providing it and having the chance to clarify your points. We were initially requested to provide a quote to replace one standard 10A Clipsal weatherproof power point, we provided the quote which was approved and scheduled the work. Upon arriving we identified that the weatherproof power point was a 56 series Clipsal industrial type 10A power point and that there were two, not one. Our technician advised before proceeding that there would be additional costs to the quoted works as the fitting was a much more expensive type than we were advised. The technician also gave options to replace with a standard type or the industrial type but if the standard type was used that there would be penetrations showing in the wall as the standard type fittings have a smaller profile. You requested to have both power points replaced with standard weatherproof power points and the additional cost to replace the second power point including labour and material was $118. The additional cost was not for another hours labour but rather the labour and materials required to complete the work. Our hourly rate is $130+GST. We could have helped with providing the full cost up front in the initial quote had we been provided with more accurate information. I hope this helps clarify your query, thank you again for your feedback.

Featured Reviews of the Best Electricians in Coonawarra
4.7 Average Rating based on 50 reviews from 32 Electricians near Coonawarra
Frequently Asked Questions For Finding Electricians Near Coonawarra
Can electricians near me offer emergency services for electrical issues?
Yes, many electricians in Coonawarra are prepared to offer emergency services to address urgent electrical issues:
- 24/7 Availability: Choose electricians who provide around-the-clock service to ensure immediate response to emergencies.
- Rapid Response: These professionals prioritise emergencies, striving to minimise downtime and reduce the risk of danger.
- Equipped for Emergencies: They come equipped to tackle a wide range of problems, from power outages to electrical hazards.
- Safety Measures: Emergency services also include implementing temporary safety measures to prevent accidents until a permanent fix is applied.
For emergency electrical issues, it’s crucial to rely on the swift and expert services of licensed electricians.
Is it important to read reviews before hiring an electrician in Coonawarra?
Absolutely, reading reviews is a critical step when selecting the right electrician for your needs:
- Quality of Work: Reviews can give you insight into the electrician’s craftsmanship and attention to detail.
- Reliability: Previous customers’ experiences can inform you about the electrician’s punctuality and reliability in completing the job as promised.
- Customer Service: Feedback on how the electrician handles queries and concerns can be a good indicator of their customer service quality.
- Overall Satisfaction: Reviews can provide a general sense of customer satisfaction, helping you gauge whether the electrician is likely to meet your expectations.
Localsearch enables you to read reviews from past customers, offering a valuable resource for making an informed decision when hiring an electrician in Coonawarra.
How can I ensure the electrician near me is qualified for electrical repairs?
When seeking a qualified electrician for electrical repairs or installations, consider the following steps to ensure you choose a licensed professional:
- Check Qualifications: Confirm that the electrician holds the necessary licenses to perform electrical work in Coonawarra. Licenses are a testament to their knowledge and adherence to safety standards.
- Review Services Offered: Examine the range of services provided by the electrician. A qualified electrician should offer a broad spectrum of services, from domestic wiring to complex installations.
- Read Customer Reviews: Insights from previous customers on Localsearch can be invaluable in assessing the electrician’s reliability, quality of work and customer service.
- Ask for Proof of Insurance: Ensure they have public liability insurance to cover any potential damages during the job.
- Inquire About Experience: Experience in specific areas such as commercial buildings, air conditioning, or L.E.D. lights installation might be crucial for your project.
By taking these steps, you can confidently select a professional electrician for your needs in Coonawarra.
Should I attempt my electrical repairs at home?
Attempting electrical repairs on your own can pose significant risks, including the possibility of electric shock or causing further damage to your electrical system. Here’s why professional assistance is vital:
- Safety: Licensed electricians have the training to perform repairs safely, avoiding the risk of electrical shocks or fires.
- Compliance: Professional electricians ensure that all work complies with local regulations and standards, which is crucial for your home’s safety and resale value.
- Diagnosis: Experienced electricians can accurately diagnose issues that might be more complex than they appear. Incorrect diagnosis can lead to unnecessary repairs and costs.
- Warranty: Many electricians offer a warranty on their work, giving you peace of mind and protection against future problems.
For these reasons, it’s always best to hire a professional electrician for any electrical work in your house.
What is a residual current device and how does it work?
A residual current device (R.C.D.) is an essential safety device designed to protect against the dangers of electric shock and electrical fires. Here’s how it operates:
- Immediate Response: The R.C.D. monitors the electric current flowing through one or more circuits. It instantly switches off the electricity supply when it detects a mismatch, indicating a leakage to the ground.
- Leakage Detection: This leakage might occur when someone touches a live wire, effectively becoming the path to the ground. The R.C.D. detects this irregularity and cuts off the power.
- Protection: Disconnecting the electricity in milliseconds significantly reduces the risk of injury or death caused by electric shock.
- Applications: R.C.D.s are used in various settings, including domestic, commercial and industrial environments, to protect circuits, appliances and most importantly, people.
Understanding and utilising R.C.D.s can significantly enhance safety in any electrical installation.
How do I know if my electrical system needs an upgrade or repair?
Signs indicating your electrical system may require an upgrade or repair include:
- Frequent Safety Switch Trips: Regular tripping indicates a persistent issue that needs addressing.
- Flickering Lights: This can suggest problems with your electrical circuits or a significant power draw from another source.
- Outdated Power Points: Old or two-pronged outlets may not be adequately grounded, posing safety risks.
- Overloaded Circuits: Using multiple extension cords or having too many appliances on one circuit can signal the need for more circuits or updated wiring.
- Aged Electrical Panel: An old switchboard, especially with one fuse or one circuit breaker, might not meet current electrical demands or safety standards.
Consulting a licensed electrician can provide an accurate assessment and recommend the necessary upgrades to ensure safety and efficiency.
What types of electrical services do electricians in Coonawarra typically offer?
- Domestic Services: Installation and repair of household electrical systems, including lighting, power points and safety switches.
- Commercial Services: Electrical solutions for commercial properties, including wiring, L.E.D. lights and safety systems.
- Air Conditioning: Installation and maintenance of air conditioning units for both homes and businesses.
- Safety Inspections: Checking electrical systems for safety compliance, identifying issues such as high current faults or improper wiring.
- Emergency Services: Offering rapid response for electrical emergencies, including power outages or electrical hazards.
