Excellent services and experience. Jarryd was great and not wanting to overcharge for anything. Bodie who completed the job was also brilliant. Friendly and helpful plus efficient. Will definitely be using this company again.
Excellent service, arrive on time, always communicate well. Reasonable. Nice team when on site. Appreciate it Jarryd. Highly recommend for all electrical work.
A huge thank you to Jarryd and the team at Down To The Wire Electrical Services, and also to Rob from the 4 Season Pools team for the excellent trenching work. We engaged Jarryd and his team to establish the electrical and data supply for our new pool, as well as to run underground conduits to both back corners of our yard for future lights and music — setting up the perfect backyard oasis. They supplied and installed 3 x 20a circuits for our ice bath, sauna, and pool equipment; 1 x 32a circuit for the pool heater provision; and 1 x 10a light feed for the pool lights. Everything was done neatly, professionally, and with great attention to detail. It was also fantastic to see Jarryd mentoring a young work experience student, investing his time and skills into the next generation. The whole team was excellent, and we’re very grateful for the quality service provided. Highly recommend Down To The Wire Electrical Services!
Down to the Wire is an excellent company to do business with. Very professional, prompt and friendly. I will definitely use again and will recommend to family, friends and colleagues. Thank you so much ☺️
Jarryd was easy to work with. Effective communication and completed the work with ease. Thank you.
Really happy with the service provided by Down to the Wire Electrical. We had a new air conditioning unit installed as well as lots of smaller jobs around our 70 year old home. We’re so pleased with the advice we received as well as the friendly and professional work completed. The team even vacuumed our carpets and floors, leaving no trace that new work had been carried out. Thank you Jarryd and team!
Friendly and knowledgeable service. Very happy with work completely. Would highly recommend
Disappointing experience due to lack of communication with owner Jarryd. Our solar stopped working and an appt was made for Friday yet someone come out Wednesday - there was no call or text to advise us of the change. The worker who was sent advised he was not experienced in Solar and was on the phone with his boss (who was the Solar expert) FaceTiming with him while looking over the system. Before the worker left he advised Jarryd would call us to discuss the findings. We received no call or text what we did receive 2 days later was an invoice for the cost of the call out (yet I was of the understanding it was to be a quote as per the website). When I emailed Jarryd with our concern of not hearing from him to discuss these findings he was quite rude in his response. We are a small business ourselves so I paid the invoice for two reasons; 1. The worker who came out was lovely and apologetic he couldn’t give us much information before leaving. 2. The actions of Jarryd (his boss) are not the workers fault and so deserved to be paid for his time. The 2 star review is solely because Jarryd’s worker was lovely otherwise it would have been a 1 star review as Jarryd did not provide us with the service that he should have provided.
Prompt service today from Jarryd. I realised that the hot water was not working. Asked locally for some recommendations and Down to the Wire came to the rescue within a few hours. Very reliable, job complete in under an hour. Great job!
Fantastic work.. on time, efficient, clean and tidy, dismantled all fans for easier disposal, very reasonable price, local business & a great guy.. Had 8 fans replaced coming back to replace all downlights!
Fantastic service at a reasonable price. Replaced all the fans in our house as well as a few other odd jobs that needed doing. Operated in a very efficient manner. Very quick at troubleshooting problems caused by previous electricians. Will definitely be using again.
Jarryd’s work in our home was amazing! From light switches, Fan installation outside, Electrical cords from TV connected behind wall, Electrical smoke alarms in the home, 3 single pendant lights connected in kitchen over bench & triple pendant lights in dining area both with dimmers. Would highly recommend Jarryd’s work. “The Wire Electrical Services” Very professional, neat, tidy, & promptly nothing too difficult when asked. Good job Jarryd.
Jarryd was awesome! Experienced and fabulous. Fast, bang on time, friendly & professional. Highly recommended and would use again. Thanks again Jarryd. Cheers Kristy & Bartek Nakielski

Home Theatre InstallationFrequently Asked Questions
How will you help me choose the right power point for my needs?
At Down to the Wire, we guide you through selecting the best power point for your needs by:
-
Assessing Your Devices: Identifying what devices you’ll be powering or charging.
-
Future-Proofing: Considering future tech needs to select versatile options.
-
Energy Efficiency: Recommending options that save power.
-
Aesthetics: Matching the style to your home’s decor.
We ensure you get the most suitable, efficient, and stylish power point solution.
What influences the installation cost of power points?
The cost of installing power points can vary based on several key factors: the type of power point (like standard, USB, or smart), the complexity of the installation job (including the need for new wiring or access issues), and any specific requirements of your home’s existing electrical setup. We’ll consider these aspects to provide an accurate quote that reflects your needs and ensures a safe, efficient installation.
How much does it cost to install power points?
Several factors influence the cost of power point installation:
-
Type of Power Point: USB or smart power points may cost more than standard ones.
-
Installation Complexity: Hard-to-reach places or complex wiring can increase costs.
-
Property Type: Commercial building installation might have different requirements and costs than residential homes.
-
Number of Points: Installing multiple power points simultaneously can affect the overall price.
We ensure transparency in our pricing, providing detailed quotes based on these factors.
Is it necessary to have a house inspection before installing new power points?
It’s not always necessary to have a full house inspection before installing new power points. Still, assessing the existing electrical system can be important to ensure it can safely support the new installations. This check helps to identify if any upgrades or repairs are needed to accommodate the new power points, ensuring everything is up to current safety standards.
How long does the installation process take?
The installation time can vary depending on the job’s specifics, such as the type of power point being installed, whether it’s a replacement or a new installation, and the condition of the existing wiring. Typically, a straightforward replacement might take less than an hour, while new installations could require a few hours, especially if additional wiring is needed. We always aim to complete the work efficiently without compromising safety or quality.
How will the accessibility of the socket affect power point installation?
The accessibility of the socket can impact the installation process for power points. If the socket is in a hard-to-reach spot or requires moving furniture or drilling through walls, it might take a bit longer and potentially increase the cost due to the extra labour involved. At Down to the Wire, we assess each situation to provide the most efficient and safe installation, regardless of the socket’s location.
Can you replace or install an old power point with a USB or smart power point?
Yes, we can replace an old power point with a USB or smart power point. It’s a great way to update your home’s electrical system to be more versatile and tech-friendly. We’ll ensure the new installation is compatible with your current wiring and meets all safety standards.
Do you offer a warranty for power point installations?
Yes, we offer a warranty for our power point installations:
-
Workmanship Guarantee: We stand by the quality of our installation work.
-
Manufacturer Warranty: Coverage on all power points installed, as per manufacturer’s specifications.
Rest assured, we aim to provide not only top-notch service but also peace of mind with our installations.
What is the cost of replacing an existing power point with a new one?
Replacing an existing power point with a new one involves costs that can vary based on the type of power point chosen, the condition of the existing wiring, and any additional modifications or additional power point installed. For the most accurate and up-to-date pricing, it’s best to consult directly with us at Down to the Wire, where we can provide a detailed quote based on your specific needs and the complexities of your project.
What is the cost of installing a power point in a hard-to-reach socket?
The cost of installing a power point in a hard-to-reach socket can vary based on several factors, such as the complexity of the installation, the need for additional wiring or equipment, and the time it takes to complete the job safely. It’s best to get a personalised quote from us at Down to the Wire for the most accurate cost estimate for your situation.
How do you install a power point in an existing electrical outlet?
To install a power point in an existing electrical outlet, first, we ensure the power is off for safety. Then, we remove the existing outlet cover and unscrew the outlet from the electrical box. We’ll check the wiring and, if compatible, connect the new power point, attaching the wires correctly according to Australian standards. After securely mounting the new power point, we conduct a thorough test to ensure everything works safely and efficiently before turning the power back on.
What are the benefits of installing double power points?
The benefits of installing double power points include:
-
Increased Capacity: More appliances or devices can be plugged in simultaneously.
-
Reduced Clutter: Minimises the need for extension leads and power boards.
-
Enhanced Convenience: Offers greater flexibility in where and how you use electrical devices.
-
Safety Improvements: Helps avoid overloading single outlets, reducing the risk of electrical hazards.
It’s a practical upgrade for any home or office, making your spaces more user-friendly and safer.
