Need a reliable electrician in Melbourne? Get in touch with Near Me Electrical for a quote on lighting upgrades, switchboard installations, appliance connections, EV chargers, smoke alarms and more. We'll reply in about 5 minutes with clear advice and straightforward pricing.
In short
How do you get a fixed-price electrical quote in Melbourne?
Send the form on this page or call Near Me Electrical on (03) 4708 5241 with a short description of the job. Simple work like power points, ceiling fans and smoke alarms is usually priced over the phone the same day; switchboards, rewiring and EV chargers get a quick on-site look first. Quotes are free, in writing, hold for 30 days and carry no obligation, and booked jobs have a $0 callout fee.
How the fixed-price quote works
Tell us what needs doing
Send the form or ring us with a plain-English description of the job. Photos of your switchboard, meter box or the fitting you want replaced help a lot, as does the age of the property. The more detail we have, the tighter the price we can give you without a site visit.
We price it in writing
Straightforward work like powerpoints, ceiling fans, smoke alarms and light swaps is usually priced over the phone the same day. Anything involving switchboards, older wiring, EV chargers or a full lighting plan gets a short on-site look first so the number you receive is the number you pay.
You book when you're ready
The quote holds for 30 days and carries no obligation. Once you accept, we lock in a time window that suits you, including Saturdays and after-hours by request, and the same licensed electrician who quoted the job is the one who turns up to do it.
What to have ready before you send the form
None of this is compulsory, but having it handy is usually the difference between a firm price today and a back-and-forth over two days. Older Melbourne homes in particular can hide surprises behind the meter box, so a quick photo saves everyone a trip.
- Your suburb and property type (house, unit, townhouse, commercial)
- Roughly when the property was built or last rewired
- A photo of your switchboard and meter box
- How many points, lights or appliances are involved
- Whether the power is currently on, off or tripping
- Any deadline you're working to, like a settlement or rental inspection
Quote questions, answered
Is the quote actually free?
Yes. Quoting costs you nothing and there is no callout fee on jobs we're booked to complete. If we need to attend site to price complex work, we'll tell you upfront whether an assessment fee applies before we come out, and it's credited against the job if you go ahead.
How fast will I hear back?
About five minutes during working hours, Monday to Saturday 7am to 7pm. Enquiries that come in overnight are answered first thing the next morning. If the power is out or something is sparking, call (03) 4708 5241 instead of waiting on a form reply.
Can the price change once work starts?
The quoted price is what you pay for the scope we agreed. If we open a wall or a switchboard and find something genuinely different to what was described, we stop, show you, and give you a revised price to approve before continuing. No surprise invoices.
Do you handle the compliance paperwork?
Yes. All work is carried out by an A-Grade licensed electrician to AS/NZS 3000, and we issue a Certificate of Electrical Safety where one is required. Landlords and property managers can also get safety switch and smoke alarm compliance documented in the same visit.
