Our Electrical Services
One licensed team handles everything from a faulty power point to a full switchboard rebuild, with clear pricing before we start and a workmanship guarantee on every job.
General Electrical
Faulty power points, ceiling fans, smoke alarms and everyday faults get sorted quickly and safely. Our general electrical team turns up fast with the right gear ready.
Residential Electrical
Beachfront houses, renovated hillside cottages and newer units each need work suited to their age and wiring. Our residential electrical crew handles all three, with pricing agreed before anything starts.
Commercial Electrical
Cafes and retailers along the James Street precinct need power that will not let them down mid-trade. Our commercial electrical service keeps premises safe, compliant and trading.
Electrical Repairs
When something stops working or behaves oddly, we track down the actual cause rather than guessing. Book electrical repairs for tripping circuits, dead outlets and salt-affected wiring on beachfront homes.
Home Security Installation
Cameras, sensor lighting and alarm systems installed properly, not bolted on as an afterthought. Our home security installation service suits houses and units alike.
Light Installation
Downlights, LED conversions and outdoor lighting lift a home and trim the power bill over time. Our light installation team fits it cleanly, with fittings suited to the salty coastal air.
Switchboard Upgrades
Original boards on the Burleigh hill were never built for today's pool pumps, aircon and pontoon-style demand. A switchboard upgrade brings in safety switches and headroom, in fittings that stand up to salt air off the headland.
Smart Home Automation
Control lighting, power outlets and connected devices from your phone once it is wired correctly. Our smart home automation service keeps setups simple and safe.
Safety Inspections
Ahead of a sale, a new tenancy, or your own peace of mind, get the wiring checked properly. A safety inspection covers the board, outdoor points and every safety switch, with extra attention to corrosion on beachfront properties.
Data & Communications
Reliable internet, TV and network points are the backbone of a connected household. Our data and communications team cables phones, ethernet and antennas neatly.
EV Charger Installation
More Burleigh Heads households are adding electric vehicles at home. Our EV charger installation service sizes the circuit correctly and wires it to standard.
What Burleigh Heads Homes Need from Their Local Electrician
Burleigh Heads is a low-to-medium-rise beachside suburb mixing older post-war fibro and brick-veneer cottages on the hill with newer rendered townhouses and boutique apartment blocks along the Esplanade and Gold Coast Highway. Much of the older beachfront stock has been redeveloped into units, so an electrician here moves between original hillside cottages, renovated homes and beachfront unit blocks in the one week.
Salt air off the headland shapes a lot of the work in this suburb. Beachfront and Esplanade properties sit in constant salt-laden sea air, which corrodes meter boxes, outdoor power points and switchgear faster than it would inland. We fit marine-grade enclosures and weatherproof outdoor fittings to stand up to it. Older post-war cottages on the hill also commonly retain ceramic fuse switchboards from the 1960s to 1980s, and many of the suburb's longer-held original homes were never fitted with safety switches on every circuit.
Streets like James Street, Connor Street and Goodwin Terrace sit close to Burleigh Head National Park, and the strong renovate-and-rebuild trend along them keeps dated coastal cottages being gutted and modernised. Energex runs the network across the suburb, whether your place backs onto the beach or sits back near the highway.

Common Electrical Issues We Fix Across Burleigh Heads
Beyond the corrosion and fuse-board work covered above, a handful of issues turn up again and again on the suburb's beachfront and hillside properties:
- Renovation Rewires The strong renovate-and-rebuild trend in this sought-after beachside suburb drives constant rewires as dated coastal cottages near James Street and Connor Street are gutted and modernised.
- Switchboard Upgrades for Coastal Living Beachfront unit blocks and renovated homes loading up on split-system aircon and modern appliances regularly need a switchboard upgrade to handle the added demand.
- Pool and Spa Circuits Many Burleigh houses set back from the beach have pools and spas requiring dedicated, compliant circuits and bonding that older switchboards were not built for.
- Overloaded Power Points Beachfront units and renovated homes running modern appliances through older wiring often show up as warm switches or points that trip under load.
