Urgent faults, attended fast
We prioritise emergency callouts across Brisbane’s western suburbs and surrounds. If there’s a safety risk, we’ll talk you through making things safe over the phone while we’re on the way.
Common emergencies we fix
The urgent jobs we’re called to most often:
- Sudden power loss or repeated tripping
- Ovens and cooktops that have stopped working
- Hot water system electrical faults
- Burning smells or warm power points
- Storm damage and water-affected wiring
- Switchboard failures
On time, even in an emergency
We give you a realistic arrival time and call if anything changes. And if your emergency happens early, remember our first appointment of the day starts at 7am.
What counts as an electrical emergency?
Sparks, smoke, burning smells, warm power points, water-affected wiring and sudden power loss all need urgent attention. So do repeated tripping and faults that leave you without an oven, cooktop or hot water. If there’s fire or immediate danger, call 000 first.
What should I do before you arrive?
Keep everyone away from the affected area and don’t touch damaged wiring, switchboards or water-affected equipment. Don’t keep resetting a switch that trips again. When you call, we’ll talk you through making things safe while we’re on the way.
What should I do if I smell burning from a power point or switchboard?
Stop using anything plugged in nearby and keep clear of the area. If you see smoke or sparks, get everyone out and call 000, then call us once everyone is safe. A burning smell can mean overheating wiring or connections, so don’t wait to see if it goes away.
Why has the power gone out in only part of my house?
Usually a safety switch or circuit breaker has tripped and cut power to one circuit. If it’s safe, unplug the appliances on that circuit and try resetting the switch once. If it won’t reset or trips again, leave it off and call us.
Can you fix an oven or hot water system that’s suddenly stopped?
Yes, where the cause is electrical. We test the supply, wiring and circuit to find the fault, then explain the repair. If the appliance itself has failed, we’ll tell you honestly so you can call the right repairer.
