Frequently Asked Questions

At Grayling Electrical, we understand that you may want an upfront quote before booking a service. However, as a professional electrical service provider, we do not offer quotes over the phone. Here’s why.

Many times, a technician has arrived at a property only to find that the issue is more complex than initially described. This can lead to unexpected costs and an uncomfortable situation for everyone involved. No matter how detailed a problem description may be, we cannot provide an accurate estimate without assessing the issue in person.

Electrical work is not a one-size-fits-all service—each job requires a unique approach. By inspecting the problem on-site, we ensure you receive a fair and transparent quote based on the actual work required.

We appreciate your understanding and look forward to providing you with quality, reliable electrical services when you need them.

There are several reasons why a safety switch or circuit breaker may trip. Some common causes include:

• Temporary Electrical Faults – These may not require an electrician and can often be easily resolved.
• Damaged or Worn-Out Wiring – Faulty wiring can become unreliable and should be repaired by a qualified electrician.
• Power Outages or Heavy Rainfall – Sudden power disruptions may require immediate electrical assistance.
• Thunderstorms or Lightning Strikes – In some cases, the issue may resolve itself once conditions stabilise.

If your safety switch trips, try turning off all lights and appliances before resetting it.

However, if the switch continues to trip, it could be due to:

• A Short Circuit
• A Ground Fault
• An Overloaded Circuit

In this case, it’s best to contact Grayling Electrical for a professional inspection. Our team specialises in electrical safety checks, ensuring your home or business remains safe and compliant. We also recommend testing your safety switch at least once a month to prevent potential hazards.

With today’s reliable electrical systems, it’s easy to overlook routine maintenance. However, regular electrical safety checks are essential to protect your home, office, or commercial property from potential hazards. It’s recommended to have a licensed electrician conduct a safety inspection at least every six months. The frequency may vary depending on the age of the building and your power usage.

If you don’t remember the last time your home had a safety check, it’s time to book an inspection with Grayling Electrical. You should also schedule a safety check if:

• You’ve recently installed one or more large appliances
• Your power bills have unexpectedly increased
• You’ve experienced electrical issues at home or work
• Your home is over 25 years old
• Your home has outdated wiring
• You’re buying or selling a house
• You’re upgrading your electrical system
• You have concerns about your home’s electrical safety
• You want to improve your home’s energy efficiency

Don’t wait for electrical issues to arise—contact us today for a professional safety inspection and peace of mind.

Smoke alarms must be replaced every 10 years, as required by Australian Standards. Over time, factors such as dust, insects, and corrosion can impact their effectiveness, making timely replacement essential for safety.

Regardless of whether you have a 9V battery-powered alarm or a mains-powered system with a battery backup, the removable battery should be replaced annually. Additionally, smoke alarms should be replaced if they are excessively dirty or clogged beyond repair or if they are an older model without photoelectric sensors, which provide enhanced fire detection.

If you're unsure about the condition or lifespan of your smoke alarms, contact us for a professional inspection to ensure your home remains protected.
