Fixed price, agreed upfront
Every install is quoted with a fixed price agreed before any work begins. Your exact price depends on:

Frequently asked questions
A circuit breaker protects wiring from overload. A safety switch protects people, cutting power in milliseconds when it detects current leaking to earth, like through a person. Homes need both.
Best practice is protection on every circuit: power, lights, air con, oven and hot water. Many older homes only have one on the power circuit, which leaves the rest exposed.
Usually a faulty appliance, moisture in a fitting, or deteriorating wiring. Repeated tripping means it's doing its job and something is genuinely leaking current. We can isolate the cause quickly.
Yes. Queensland landlords must have safety switch protection on power circuits, and requirements are tightening. We can certify your property so you have the paperwork on file.
