Electrical emergency in Perth? We are here to help

If you have an electrical emergency in Perth, call us first and we will talk you through making it safe. We are licensed electricians (EC10916), family-run from Wilson, and we answer 7 days from 6am to 6pm.

An emergency electrician is for the faults that cannot wait: a burning smell from the switchboard, sparking or scorched power points, or a board that keeps tripping and will not reset. We will give you honest advice on the phone and the soonest we can be there, then make the fault safe and repair it properly.

First steps

What to do right now

If you can smell burning or see sparks, switch the power off at the main switch on your board, but only if it is safe to reach.

Do not touch anything wet, scorched, or any exposed wiring.

Keep people and pets away from the area.

Call us on (08) 6011 1561 and we will guide you from there.
