Request a quoteI found Denver and Morne both serious when discussing the project prior to quoting, and engaging/approachable about any query I raised before and during the work. At no point did they rush the work or cut corners. The finished job looks really good. I got five quotes in all: they were the most expensive, and significantly so relative to the next highest quote. I would have liked to pay less, but chose them as I felt they understood the work required and would not leave me with worries about quality.
They were very efficient, responded in the middle of the night and kept constant communication.

Request a quoteOwen was punctual, went out of his way to find the problem and did the necessary repairs professionally. I would recommend him to anyone who has an electrical fault. His rates were very reasonable and stuck to his original quote although the job was far bigger than anticipated.
Certainly not. We were very happy with Owens work. Can't find fault with anything he did.

Frequently asked questions
-
What is a periodic inspection and how often does it need to be carried out?
A periodic inspection is an inspection and associated testing to check whether an electrical installation is in a satisfactory condition for continued service. It is recommended to be carried out every 10 years for home-owners and more frequently for businesses.

-
When do I need to rewire?
There are no set times on when you need to rewire your property. Just because wiring is old, does not mean you need a new one. We would advise you to do a periodic inspection every 10 years and the test will certify whether the electrics in a property are safe and tell you if anything needs upgrading.
-
How do I know if an electrical contractor is registered?
Every ECA (Electrical COntractors Association) member is a registered electrician. If he is not a member of the ECA, it is best to ask to see his/her registration certificate from the Department of Labour.
