Between tenancies
A safety check and any repairs before a new tenant moves in, with the electrical side documented for the manager.
Perth & the Hills
Electrical maintenance & repairs.
Things wear out, safety devices need testing, and switchboards get messy over time. The E-LEC team handles both the fix-it-now repairs and the steady, preventive upkeep that keeps homes, rentals, strata and small business premises safe and compliant across Perth and the Perth Hills.
Who electrical maintenance is for
Electrical maintenance covers everything from a single failed light fitting to keeping a whole property in safe, working order. It suits homeowners who want faults sorted properly, landlords and property managers keeping tenanted homes safe and compliant, strata managers looking after common property, and small business owners who can't afford things to stop working.
The common thread is simple: electrical things fail over time, safety devices need testing to prove they still work, boards get crowded and confusing, and rentals have to stay compliant between tenancies. Reactive repairs deal with what's broken today; preventive checks catch the problems before they become the emergency. For managing an ongoing portfolio, our property managers page explains how we keep compliance and paperwork in order across multiple properties.
What we cover
- Reactive repairs — faults, dead circuits, tripping boards and things that have simply stopped working
- Preventive checks — periodic inspection of the installation to catch problems early
- RCD & smoke-alarm testing — confirming safety devices actually trip and sound as they should
- Switchboard tidy-ups & labelling — making crowded, unlabelled boards clear and safe to work on
- Failed accessories — worn switches, sockets, fittings and connections replaced properly
- Safety checks & rectification — identifying what's unsafe and putting it right
What's included
The exact scope depends on the property and the issue, but maintenance work with E-LEC typically includes:
- We attend and assess — finding out what's actually going on before quoting a fix
- We repair it, or set out clear next steps where a bigger job is the right call
- Testing of safety devices and affected circuits to confirm everything works
- Reporting where it's useful — for a landlord, property manager or business owner
- Documentation appropriate to the work carried out
Where a fault turns out to be intermittent or hard to pin down, we'll move into proper fault finding rather than guessing — and explain what we're doing and why.
Common scenarios
When people call us for maintenance
Something stopped working
Dead power points, a circuit that won't come back on, or lights that have failed across part of the home.
Messy switchboard
A crowded, unlabelled board that no one can safely work on — tidied, labelled and made clear.
Strata common property
Lighting, boards and safety devices in shared areas kept in working order for owners and managers.
Small business upkeep
Keeping shopfronts, offices and workshops running — worn fittings, faults and safety checks handled promptly.
Safety device testing
RCD and smoke-alarm testing to confirm the protection is actually working, with anything failing put right.
FAQ
Electrical maintenance questions
Do you do ongoing maintenance for property managers?
Yes. We work with property managers and owners across a portfolio — attending reactive repairs, carrying out safety checks between tenancies and keeping the electrical side documented. You can read more on our property managers page.
Can you test RCDs and smoke alarms?
Yes. We test safety switches (RCDs) to confirm they trip correctly and check smoke alarms as part of maintenance and compliance work. Where a device fails or is missing, we explain what's needed and put it right.
Do you provide reports?
Where it's useful — for a landlord, property manager or business — we provide a plain report on what we found, what we did and anything still outstanding, along with documentation appropriate to the work carried out.
Do you cover rentals and strata common property?
Yes. We handle maintenance and repairs for tenanted homes and for strata common property — lighting, boards, safety devices and general electrical faults — and keep the work documented for owners and managers.
