Frequently asked questions

We understand that choosing the right tradie can come with a lot of questions. Our team of skilled professionals is here to make the process simple and stress-free, providing clear communication, and quality workmanship every step of the way. To help you get started, here are some common questions.
How quickly can an emergency electrician arrive?

In most cases, we aim to be with you within 60 minutes of your call. Every minute counts in an emergency, so we move fast. 

Are we available 24 hours a day?

Absolutely. Your Local Tradesman operates around the clock, every day of the year. Whether it’s 3am or 3pm, our emergency electricians are ready to take on your job, get it done and get it done well. 

How much does an emergency electrician cost?

Our Adelaide-based emergency electricians will work out what needs to be done and provide you with a no-obligation, upfront fixed price for your job.

What counts as an electrical emergency?

Here are some common emergencies that require an urgent electrician: 

  • Unexplainable power outages 
  • Unidentifiable burning smells  
  • Sparking outlets 
  • Tripping breakers 
  • Any situation that feels dangerous  

If any of the above apply, it warrants a call. When in doubt, it doesn’t hurt to reach out first. That’s exactly what an after hours electrician is here for. 

What should you do in an electrical emergency before we arrive?

Stay calm. Easier said than done, we know. If possible, it helps to do the following: 

  • Switch off the main power at your switchboard 
  • Avoid touching any exposed wiring or damaged appliances 
  • Keep children and pets away from the area 
  • Wait for our team to arrive and stay safe out there! 
Are our electricians all licensed and insured?

Of course. All Your Local Tradesman electricians are fully licensed and insured. It’s one less thing to worry about when you’re faced with urgent electrical emergencies. 

Is it safe to wait until the morning to call an electrician?

It’s not worth the risk. Electrical faults are prone to escalating quickly, potentially causing fires or serious injury. If it doesn’t feel right, it probably isn’t. The best thing to do is to call us immediately. 

Do we support both homes and businesses with emergencies?

Yes. We service residential homes, commercial properties and industrial sites across Adelaide. No job is too big or too small for our team, whether you need us during the day or an after hours electrician overnight. 

How do you charge for your services?

We offer transparent, upfront pricing at competitive rates for our services. Get in touch with us to discuss your specific needs, and we'll provide you with a fixed quote detailing the works before they begin.

I had a serious tap breakage that caused my apartment to flood with water. I even called SA Water, but they were delayed. Then we had this amazing guy, Phil, who came out, quickly found the cause, turned off the water supply—which was on the roof—and repaired the tap. I just want to give Phil a huge compliment. He was absolutely amazing and a real lifesaver! He went above and beyond to help us during a very stressful situation. Truly appreciate his help and professionalism. Thank you, Phil!

We had power outage on the wet, cold & stormy Wednesday this week. After several attempts to get a reliable emergency electrician out asap I found the Local Tradesman site. They arrived early evening & quickly identified the problem. After further quote they proceeded to replace the full circuit board with safety switches. Impressive effort considering outside work in trying conditions. Great job! Thanks Jordan & Alfredo. Very pleased with the result.
Response from the owner:Thank you, Trevor, for taking the time to leave a review. We appreciate your feedback and look forward to serving you again!
