We often hear people comment about how difficult it is to find and engage tradespeople, and all too often the complaints are valid. At Everest Electrical Services, we know that Australian lifestyles have changed much in the 20 years, and in many ways this lifestyle shift has changed your expectations of the services provided to you, including electrical services.
Reliability Is Vital For The Time-Poor
These days it is the exception rather than the rule to have residents at home during the day, particularly in Sydney, where the cost of living often dictates that both partners are in the workforce. What this means is that when you arrange a quote, or for work to be done, you will need to take time off work, or adjust your schedule accordingly.
We get this. Seeing the words ‘reliable’ and ‘professional’ in our client feedback, tells us that we meeting our clients’ expectations. When we see the words ‘going the extra mile’, we know that we are meeting our own.
Professionalism Shines Through
Reliability is just one of the reasons that makes us the provider of electrical services Northern Beaches residents recommend to their friends and family, and the one real estate agents call for property electrical maintenance. We are licensed contractors, who run a business – we are not ‘handymen’. At Everest Electrical Services we offer a unique lifetime guarantee on our workmanship.
If you are considering engaging an electrician, we offer these tips to help your project run smoothly.
What to look for in electrical contractors
License:
Unless the electrician has been personally recommended, obtain several written quotes and ask to see their licenses. Having a license attests to the fact that they have completed the required training to become licensed, including compliance with safety standards. Check that the licensee is allowed to practise in New South Wales, and if in any doubt at all, call the licensing body to confirm the details shown on the license.
Most professional organisations and licensing authorities maintaining their own websites which incorporate search options for verifying licenses and providing access to local directories.
Experience:
In electrical works, having more years of experience is an advantage. A minimum of 3 years of experience in the electrical industry, post-apprenticeship, is considered a minimum for a contractor to have gained hands-on knowledge, to be able to specialise in specific electrical services, and to have gained the knowledge needed to run a business – not just deliver a service.
Work guarantee:
Licensed electrical contractors use only high quality systems and fixtures for electrical safety and energy efficiency. High quality materials and professional workmanship allow them to guarantee their work, increasing consumer confidence and providing value for money. At Everest Electrical services, we install only the highest quality materials and fixtures.
Professional advice:
Electrical contractors must also be able to offer qualified energy efficiency advice for new and existing structures, proactive safety measures to prevent accidents and injuries in the workplace and at home.
