Hiring an electrician in Sutherland: what to check

Licence check. This is specialist work in NSW, so a licence is needed regardless of the job’s value. Check the licence (and that it covers the right category) on the NSW Government Verify licence check.
  • Check their licence (and that it covers your type of work) before you hire.
  • Ask for a written quote that lists labour, materials and GST.
  • For residential work over $5,000 (incl. GST) in NSW, get a written contract.
  • Confirm they hold public liability insurance.
  • Check the ABN on the ABN Lookup website.
  • Ask how long the job will take and who will be on site.

Typical jobs

  • Switchboard upgrades and safety switches (RCDs)
  • Power points, lighting and LED downlights
  • Ceiling fans and exhaust fans
  • Smoke alarm installation and replacement
  • EV charger installation
  • Fault finding and emergency call-outs
  • Rewiring older homes
  • Oven, cooktop and hot water connections

Local tips for Sutherland

  • Older homes often still have ceramic fuses, old rubber or VIR wiring and no safety switches — ask for a safety inspection before adding new circuits.
  • In bushfire-prone areas it’s worth asking about backup power, outdoor lighting and protecting external wiring.
  • Salt air corrodes outdoor fittings, so ask about IP-rated, marine-grade outdoor lights and power points.
