Electrical work in Essendon
Essendon is one of our busiest suburbs. It is a ten-minute run down Keilor Road from our base in Airport West, so we can usually get to an Essendon job the same day and quote it within two hours of your call.
Much of Essendon is period housing: Victorian and Edwardian weatherboards, Californian bungalows and interwar brick homes, many of them renovated more than once. That history shows up in the wiring. Ceramic fuse boards, cloth-insulated cable in the roof, and power points added over decades by different hands are all common. Closer to Mount Alexander Road there are newer apartments and townhouses with their own needs, particularly EV charging.
Our most common Essendon jobs are switchboard upgrades with RCD safety switches, rewiring during renovations, feature and pendant lighting, and EV chargers run to garages at the back of the block. We also install CCTV and intercoms for homes on the busier streets.

Ali is very professional and reliable. From the initial conversation to the completion of the job everything went very well.Even if the job Ali did for me was a bit tricky, resetting my house alarm, he didn’t give up or even try to take advantage of the situation by increasing his fees.He charged me for the job and not per hour which was a good thing for me as it took him more time than what Ali anticipated but he respected his words which is very important to me in life and business.I’ll definitely use his services next time I need an electrician.

Ali and his team were very professional. I needed 5 new and varied light fittings installed, 3 with overhead fans, they came on time and finished the job with skill and in good time. I will definitely use these electricians again if I need any more work done. Highly recommend.

Ali is responsive, polite and reliable. Apart from the wonderful job he did, he also took time to explain things to me and answer my questions. He was upfront about what could and couldn’t be done and offered clear, practical alternatives. After completing his job, he tidied everything up, leaving the space clean and neat. Highly recommend!

Ali was very easy to deal with, arrived on time, was professional and knowledgeable. He asked for photos prior to the job and explained what I needed to purchase which made it easy for me. He also charged what he quoted which was extremely reasonable. His apprentice was also very polite and cleaned up after the job was completed. Ali came recommended to me and I too would highly recommend him.

Super happy with the installation of overhead fans by Ali and his team. Ali was a great communicator. Able to provide a quote quickly and then book a day for the job and complete it. Also, really happy with the cost. Will certainly use Ali again for future jobs.

Essendon electrician: common questions
Do you charge a call-out fee in Essendon?
No. We quote the job as a fixed price before we start, and for most Essendon jobs we quote from photos and a phone call within two hours.
My Essendon house still has ceramic fuses. Is that dangerous?
It is legal to keep, but it means you have no safety switch protection. A switchboard upgrade with RCDs is the single best safety improvement for an older home, and it is required if you add circuits.
Can you install an EV charger in a period home with the garage at the back?
Yes. That is the most common Essendon setup. We run the cable underground or along the fence line and install a 7 kW single-phase charger, or 22 kW if you have three-phase.
