Canning Vale sparkie.Switchboards, granny flats,and after-hours when it's actually urgent.
G'day, I'm AJ. Most of the work I do round here is the same story — old boards trying to do new jobs. Capacity upgrades, granny-flat sub-boards, EV chargers, and faults that need proper diagnosis.
EC 9715
WA Licensed
Old board, new loads? Most Canning Vale homes from the 90s/00s weren't spec'd for ducted air, EVs, pool pumps and granny flats all running together.

What I get called out for most weeks
The bread and butter of SE Perth electrical work — capacity problems, granny flats, and faults that need proper diagnosis.
A proper capacity upgrade with the right RCDs and load balancing — not just a bigger fuse.
Switchboard upgrades
Sub-board install, separate metering if needed, lighting, power points, smoke alarms — wired clean.
Granny flat wiring
Real fault diagnosis with insulation testing and methodical isolation. After-hours for actual emergencies.

What Canning Vale locals say
Mark T.
AJ upgraded our switchboard after the safety switch kept tripping whenever we ran the aircon and dryer together. No more trips, and he explained exactly what the old board couldn't handle. Really straightforward bloke.
Sarah M.
Had AJ wire up the granny flat for mum. Sub-board, lights, power points, smoke alarms — all done in a day. Invoice matched the quote to the dollar, and he sent through the certificate same afternoon.
David & Lin P.
Called on a Sunday arvo when we lost power to half the house. AJ answered, asked a few questions, and was here within the hour. Found the fault, fixed it, no drama. Genuine emergency sparkie.
