Hiring an electrician in Tablelands: what to check

Licence check. In Queensland, as everywhere in Australia, electrical work must be done by a licensed electrician. Ask for their licence number and check it on the QLD licensing regulator’s public register before work starts.
  • Check the tradie holds the licence or registration required in your state for your type of job.
  • Ask for a written quote that lists labour, materials and GST.
  • Get a written contract for larger jobs — many states require one for residential building work over a set value.
  • Ask whether 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

Tips for Tablelands

  • Distances between towns are bigger in outer regional areas — ask whether an electrician regularly works in your locality and what travel costs apply.
  • Booking ahead helps, as regional tradies are often scheduled weeks in advance.
  • Ask whether they offer after-hours or emergency call-outs, and what that costs, before you need one.
  • Tablelands covers 52 localities, so check that the business’s service area actually includes your suburb.
