Start with your situation
Electrical costs and quotes: fault finding, repairs and safety checks
An assessment can identify a fault without including its repair. Establish what the first fee covers, what the proposed work changes and what paperwork you will receive.

Before authorising further work
- Ask what the assessment found and which work is proposed to address it.
- Request a written scope with materials, attendance, GST, testing and the applicable Certificate of Electrical Safety.
- If there is an immediate hazard, follow current Energy Safe Victoria emergency guidance. A quote worksheet cannot assess whether equipment is safe.
