Brilliant LED Downlights and Trustworthy Service
Alistair and his team installed LED downlights throughout my house. They did a brilliant job and my home looks great. I would not go to any other electrician and would highly recommend Hardwired Electrical for any electrical work. Alistair is honest, trustworthy and very efficient. Thanks again for the fantastic work.

Reliable Team for Major Renovation Project
We engaged Alistair and the team at Hardwired Electrical early in the process of an extensive renovation on our home. This was a major project, requiring a staged delivery of services. Each time we contacted Hardwired they turned up ready to get on with the job. Very hard to find reliable tradespeople, who have pride in their work. This pride in work mentality was evident and on display from the boss all the way through to the apprentices. I have recommended this business to many others and continue to do so!

Same-Day Service and Friendly Professional Work
After calling 6 other electricians and none answered I called Hardwired Electrical who answered straight away spoke to Alistair, gave me a very good quote, and came out same day within a couple of hours, very friendly and professional service. The tradie he sent Dean was a pleasure to deal with and did a great job.

Best Electrician Fair Price and Outstanding Service
I was incredibly fortunate to find this company who are officially the best electrician I have ever used. Moving house I had a few little jobs that needed an electrician and after calling many companies, who either would not give me a quote over the phone (insisting on a site visit) or telling me to email them, only to dismiss the jobs as too small (too busy to bother), or being quoted extortionate prices, Hardwired were amazing. Alistair returned my call, gave me a price over the phone and came out to do the work a couple of days later. Not only did he do a FANTASTIC job, but he priced VERY FAIRLY, was on time, friendly, professional and even hoovered up after himself. I can’t recommend enough. Finding a brilliant tradie is priceless. Recommend. Recommend. Recommend!

Exceptional Customer Service and Neat Workmanship
I have used a number of electricians over the years, but the thought and effort and level of customer service demonstrated and exhibited by your two electricians (Dean and Austin if I recall correctly) exceeded my expectations. Both worked neatly, quietly and efficiently, were more than happy to accommodate my requests and did their utmost to leave the house, after the work was completed in the condition within which it was found. I would certainly use your services again. It is up there with the very best in Perth. So thank you.

Quick Response Quality Work Great Options
Would recommend Alistair. He responded quickly to enquiries and was able to recommend different options that other electricians hadn’t considered. Work done was high quality.
Helen Ngo
Professional Clear Explanation and Quality Work
Very professional and did a great job of explaining everything before they started. No nasty surprises with the bill and quality of the work was fantastic. Will use again.

Why upgrading your switchboard matters now
Delaying a switchboard upgrade increases the risk of electrical fires, electric shock and ongoing power faults. Older systems were not built to handle today’s appliances or growing household load. Modern RCD switchboards Perth homeowners use today offer strong protection that older fuse boxes simply cannot match. Upgrading now safeguards your home, reduces long term costs and prevents avoidable hazards. Acting early provides better safety and peace of mind.
