If your circuit keeps tripping, lights are flickering for no obvious reason, or there's a burning smell you can't trace, it's time to call an electrician.
Your Local Tradesman tracks down electrical faults across Adelaide fast, and our licensed electricians will get it fixed on the same visit.
Electrical fault finding is one of the most common electrical services we're called out for. Our licensed electricians have been diagnosing and fixing faults for over 15 years, and we rarely need to come back a second time.
Electrical faults don't always announce themselves. Some show up as a tripped breaker, while others are hidden in walls or aging wiring you can't see. When left undiagnosed, a small fault can become a serious hazard.
We inspect your switchboard, circuits, and visible wiring, use testing equipment to isolate the fault, and give you a clear explanation of what's going on. If a repair is needed, we'll quote it on the spot and get it done the same day where possible.
All of our fault finding work is carried out by fully licensed electricians who understand SA wiring standards and know what to look for in both modern and older homes. We'll always tell you exactly what we find and what we recommend before any work begins.
With over 15 years working across Adelaide homes and businesses, our licensed electricians know switchboards inside out.
We handle everything from electrical switchboard upgrades to emergency call-outs and full panel replacements as part of our full range of electrical services, all with upfront pricing, no surprises, and a lifetime labour warranty on every job.
We follow a simple three step routine - we diagnose & repair, so you can relax.
There are a few key signs to look out for to know when it's time to upgrade your switchboard:

Tripping breakers, flickering lights, a warm switchboard, or missing safety switches are all signs that something's not right. If you've still got an older ceramic fuse board, it almost certainly needs upgrading. Book a same-day assessment, and we'll give you a straight answer.
It depends on your property and what's required. You'll always get a fixed upfront quote before we start. If cost is a concern, ask about our interest-free payment plans through HUMM.
