Electrical panel upgrades in Brisbane typically range from $2,500 to $7,500, depending on your current system and the complexity of the upgrade. A standard upgrade from 100-amp to 200-amp service usually falls in the middle of this range.
The final cost depends on factors like your home’s age, the location of your current panel, and whether additional electrical work is needed. We provide upfront pricing before any work begins, so you know exactly what you’re paying.
Many Brisbane homeowners find that upgrading their electrical panel is worth the investment for the increased safety, improved capacity for modern appliances, and added home value.
Yes, we offer same-day electrical service for emergencies in Brisbane when possible. We understand that electrical problems don’t wait for convenient times, especially issues that could affect your family’s safety.

Several signs indicate your Brisbane home may need an electrical panel upgrade. Frequent circuit breaker trips, especially when using multiple appliances, usually means your current panel can’t handle your home’s electrical demand.
Flickering lights, outlets that feel warm to the touch, or getting small shocks when touching switches are all warning signs that shouldn’t be ignored. If your home still has an old fuse box or a panel that’s over 20 years old, it’s likely time for an upgrade.
Many older Brisbane homes were built when electrical demands were much lower. Today’s homes with computers, large TVs, modern appliances, and potential EV chargers need more electrical capacity than older panels can safely provide.
Yes, we warranty all our electrical work because we stand behind the quality of our services. The specific warranty terms depend on the type of work performed, but we guarantee our workmanship and will return to address any issues related to the electrical work we completed.
This warranty gives you peace of mind knowing that if something goes wrong with our work, we’ll make it right at no additional cost to you. We use quality electrical materials and follow proper installation procedures to minimize the likelihood of future problems.
Our goal is to fix electrical issues correctly the first time, so you don’t have to deal with the same problem again. The warranty is just additional protection that shows we’re confident in the work we do.
We prioritize emergency electrical calls and typically respond within a few hours during business hours for true emergencies in Brisbane. For situations like power outages, sparking outlets, or burning smells that could affect safety, we work to get to you as quickly as possible.
Our electricians carry common repair parts in their service trucks, which means many emergency repairs can be completed on the first visit without waiting for parts to be ordered. This gets your electrical system back to working safely faster.
Keep in mind that some electrical emergencies may require immediate attention from your utility company first, and we’ll guide you through those situations as well. Our experience helps us quickly identify what needs immediate professional attention versus what can wait for regular business hours.
