Electrical Appliances

In rental properties, it is the responsibility of the property manager to ensure all fixed electrical appliances are in good working order. This equipment can become worn out with excessive use and ongoing repairs can become costly. We will attend properties and thoroughly test through these appliances to ensure the most cost effective long term solution is provided.


  • Power points and switches
  • Bathroom fan heater lights
  • Ovens, Dishwashers, Rangehoods and Cooktops
  • Electric hot water systems
  • Ceiling fans
  • Light fittings, Sensor lights, downlights
  • Communal areas  and time clocks
  • Washing machines and Dryers

Safety Switches

By law, domestic rental properties, including houses and units, must have a safety switch fitted to power point circuits as a minimum. When we attend properties to complete requested works, if we notice the property does not have a safety switch, we provide a no obligation quote advising that one must be installed as soon as possible. 

Note: Don’t mistake circuit breakers for safety switches. Circuit breakers are designed to protect circuit wiring and equipment, while safety switches save lives. A safety switch has a test button. If you can’t see any test buttons in your switchboard, it means you don’t have a safety switch and a licensed electrical contractor should be engaged to install one. 

Smoke Alarms 

The law changed on the 1st of January 2017 regarding Smoke Alarms. The Queensland Fire and Emergency Service (QFES) has also stated penalties will be strictly enforced for non-compliance. We are here to assist property owners and managers  to comply with the following smoke alarm regulations which will take effect to rental properties 1st Jan 2022:

  • Photoelectric and comply with Australian Standard (3786-2014); and
  • Not also contain an ionization sensor; and
  • Be less than 10 years old; and
  • Operate when tested; and
  • Be hardwired to the mains power supply with a secondary power source (i.e. battery); and
  • Be interconnected with every other required smoke alarm in the dwelling so all activate together

Emergency Works

If anyone in the property feels a tingle or shock from electrical equipment, a tap, or other metal fittings, don’t ignore it—it’s a sign that something’s not right and could be fatal. A shock can come from using or touching permanent electrical equipment (like a stove or electric hot water system), or from switches and light fittings with damaged wiring or casing. This is what we would consider an urgent job and tenants are advised to stop using it immediately. An electrician would be dispatched as a matter of urgency.
