Updated · Find My Tradie

Sydney is a big, competitive market, and most electrical work is local. Homeowners want someone close by who turns up. That works in your favour if you're easy to find in the suburbs you actually want to work in.

Free sources first

  • Google Business Profile: category "Electrician", set as a service-area business covering your suburbs (hide your home address). Add photos of switchboards, lighting jobs and tidy installs.
  • Reviews: text a review link the day you finish. Volume and recency both matter.
  • Builders, renovators and other trades: kitchen and bathroom renovators, carpenters and plumbers all need a reliable sparky.
  • Real estate property managers and strata: smoke alarm, safety switch and maintenance work comes up all year.
  • Local community groups: many Sydney groups only allow business posts on a set day, so check the rules and stick to them.

Jobs Sydney homeowners search for

  • Switchboard upgrades and safety switch (RCD) installs
  • Smoke alarm installation and replacement
  • Downlights, LED upgrades, ceiling fans and outdoor lighting
  • EV charger installation
  • Power points, data and TV points
  • Rewiring older homes

Our homeowner guides on switchboard upgrade costs and electrician costs in Sydney show the kind of questions customers ask.

Licence and paperwork

In NSW, electrical work must be done by a licensed electrician, and homeowners are told to check licences on the NSW Government's licence check. Put your licence number on your quotes, van and listings. Find My Tradie shows it on your profile.
