Most electricians won't put a number on a website. We will. Here's exactly what we charge, what's inside the minimum, and what pushes a job above it — so there's nothing to discover on the invoice.
Standard call-out, first hour
After hours
Estimate turnaround
First hour minimum, plus travel
Then $100 per hour for labour. Travel is $50 per visit, charged once — so a standard call-out starts at $150 and you can work the rest out yourself.
First hour minimum
Then $100 per hour. Nights, weekends and public holidays. We'll tell you on the phone whether it genuinely needs tonight — often it doesn't, and we'll say so.

05 — The rules, plainly
The minimum
$100 for the hour, $50 for the travel. The call-out charge and the health and safety fee are already inside the $100, not added on afterwards — so a standard job starts at $150 and materials and GST are shown separately.
Travel
Charged once per visit, not per hour. If a job needs us back on a later day — waiting on a part, say — that trip is another $50. Come back the same day and you're not charged twice.
Bigger jobs
Installs, switchboards, heat pumps and fit-outs are quoted as a fixed price before we start, so hourly rates never come into it. We recommend getting the quote first.
What could change the price
Asbestos in a wall cavity, wiring that's unsafe to leave, a switchboard already at capacity, scaffolding or restricted access. If we find one of those we stop, explain it and you decide. You will never get a surprise on the invoice.
Before you book anything
Our estimators can price most work within 24 hours without coming out at all — just a description and a couple of photos. If the job does need eyes on it, that visit costs you nothing.

We're human and we can make the odd mistake, on the work or on the pricing. There's no complaints portal and no ticket number — William Morton handles it himself, and he'd rather hear about it early than read about it in a review.
07 — The usual ones
The $100 business-hours minimum covers the first hour of labour, the call-out charge and the health and safety fee. Travel is a separate $50 per visit, so a standard call-out starts at $150. After the first hour it's $100 an hour for labour. Materials are itemised separately at cost plus margin.
Outside normal business hours, plus weekends and public holidays. The emergency minimum is $250 for the first hour, covering labour, the call-out, the health and safety fee and travel, then $100 an hour after that. Ring us first — we'll tell you honestly if it can safely wait until morning at the standard rate.
No. Site visits to quote are free and there's no obligation. Our estimators can also price most jobs within 24 hours from a description and photos, without visiting at all.
Travel is $50 per visit, charged once however long we're there. If a job needs us back on a later day — waiting on a part, for example — that return trip is another $50. If we come back the same day, you're not charged twice.
For anything substantial, yes, and we'd encourage it. Installs, switchboard upgrades, heat pumps and fit-outs are all quoted as a fixed written price before we start. Hourly rates are really for fault finding, repairs and small jobs where nobody can know the length in advance.
No — all rates shown exclude GST. Your quote and invoice will show GST separately.
We work with a lot of property managers and can set up account terms and priority booking. Talk to us about volume and we'll put something sensible in place.
08 — Get a number
Send us a description and a couple of photos. Our estimators come back within 24 hours with an actual number — and it costs you nothing to ask.
