I had a non compliant switchboard and obtained several quotes to rectify. Skene’s Electrical was the most competitive and undertook the work in a timely and professional manner. Very pleased with the whole experience and will use again if I have any electrical problems.Posted on Google![]()

Great service from Duncan! He was friendly, easy to deal with, and did a great job. His pricing was fair and reasonable, and the quality of his work was excellent. He turned up when he said he would, communicated well throughout the job, and left everything tidy when he finished. I'd happily use him again and would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable electrician.Posted on Google![]()

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you help plan electrical upgrades over time rather than all at once?
Yes. We often work with homeowners and property managers to create staged plans that prioritise safety and performance while spreading upgrades across manageable timeframes.
Do you provide documentation for strata and property records?
We can supply written summaries and service details to support property files, maintenance records, and compliance tracking.
Are your Level 2 services suitable for residential properties?
Yes. Many residential properties require Level 2 work for power connections, metering, or private infrastructure, and we are equipped to manage these services.
How do you assess whether solar systems are operating safely?
We check electrical connections, system performance indicators, and related components to identify issues that could affect output or safety.
