Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers to the questions we hear most about our electrical services, compliance, pricing and coverage across Gauteng. Can't find what you need? Our team is one call away.

Electrical Installation

Yes. We carry out complete electrical installations for new homes, extensions, renovations and commercial fit-outs across Gauteng — including wiring, distribution boards, plug and light points, and full testing and certification to SANS 10142-1.

Absolutely. Older properties often have ageing or unsafe wiring. We carry out full and partial rewires, replacing deteriorated cabling and outdated boards to bring your installation up to current safety standards.

Every installation we complete is tested and certified. Where required, we issue a valid Electrical Certificate of Compliance so your installation is legal, safe and insurable.

Electrical Repairs

We repair faulty wiring, dead or sparking plug points, faulty lights, stove and oven connections, tripping circuits, distribution boards and more — for both residential and commercial clients.

Yes. Dead or intermittent sockets are a common call-out. We diagnose the cause — whether it's a tripped circuit, loose connection or damaged cable — and carry out a safe, lasting repair.

We back our workmanship with a guarantee and use quality components. If a repair we carried out isn't right, we'll return and put it right.

Fault Finding

Repeated tripping usually points to an earth leakage fault, an overloaded circuit, or a faulty appliance or cable. Our electricians use professional fault-finding equipment to trace the exact cause rather than simply resetting the board.

Many faults are traced within an hour, though complex or intermittent faults can take longer. We always explain what we find and what the repair involves before proceeding.

Emergency Electrician

Yes. Our emergency teams are available around the clock, every day of the year, for dangerous faults, burning smells, sparking, total power loss and other electrical hazards across Gauteng.

If it's safe, switch off the power at the main board and keep clear of any sparking or exposed wiring. Then call us immediately on 0861 995 088 — we'll guide you and dispatch a technician as fast as possible.

We aim to respond to genuine emergencies as fast as possible, day or night. Because we operate teams across Gauteng, there's usually a qualified electrician close by.

Compliance Certificates (COC)

By law you need a valid COC when selling a property. It's also frequently required for insurance, for rentals, and after any new electrical work or additions to an installation.

An Electrical Certificate of Compliance is generally valid for two years, provided no further electrical work has been carried out. A new certificate is required after additions or alterations.

If we find faults during inspection, we'll quote to repair them, carry out the work, and then issue your COC once the installation is fully compliant.

Residential Electrical

Yes — no job is too small. From a single plug point or light fitting to geyser timers, LED conversions and full rewires, we treat every residential job with the same care and professionalism.

We design and install energy-efficient LED lighting indoors and outdoors, which can significantly reduce your electricity bill while improving the quality of light in your home.

Commercial & Industrial

Yes. For commercial and industrial clients we schedule work around your trading or production hours to minimise disruption, including after-hours and phased installations.

We do. Our team handles three-phase installations, machine and motor repairs, control panel design and factory automation, with the project management capacity for large and multi-site work.

Pricing & Quotes

Pricing depends on the scope of work. For most jobs we provide a clear, itemised written quotation before any work begins, so there are no surprises. Contact us for an honest estimate.

Completely. You approve a written quote before we start, with no hidden extras or inflated call-out fees. The price we quote is the price you pay.

Call-out and assessment fees vary by area and the nature of the work. We'll always be upfront about any fees when you contact us.

We service the whole of Gauteng, including Johannesburg, Sandton, Midrand, Pretoria, Centurion, Randburg, Roodepoort, Alberton, Germiston, Boksburg, Benoni, Kempton Park, Edenvale, Fourways, Bryanston, Rivonia, Bedfordview, Krugersdorp, Springs and Vereeniging.
