I called Standby Electrical services to help me with a lighting issue. Mal came around, gave me a few suggestions which I agreed to. Mal did the wiring and installation of the lights in my home. All work was done efficiently and cleanly. I am very happy with the new lights. Mals' advice was excellent and I would contact him again for any other electrical needs.
Highly recommended. Jennifer
Mal installed 5 x ceiling fans. He gave helpful advice prior to purchasing the fans. His communication was excellent and he was punctual and professional. I have no hesitation in recommending Standby Electrical Services.
Malcolm’s was a pleasure to deal with , his work excellent, along with providing excellent advice to ensure the best outcome. We used Malcolm on all the electrical as in the renovated bathroom, his suggestion for tile heating was a winner, along with upgrading our switchboard. Highly recommend Malcolm services - professional, clean and tidy, provides great communication and turns up on time. We have used Malcolm’s services now for many years and never had an issue, thanks for the great work.
Malcolm was a pleasure to deal with. He quoted promptly and with full detail. He kept in contact and was always punctual, reliable and trustworthy. With working from home he worked around work schedules for us. I have found my go to man and will recommend him to all.
Thank you Malcolm.
We called Mal after waking up to no hot water, he made time to see us on a Friday afternoon, coming within a few hours of contacting him.
He replaced everything on the spot and will absolutely use him again for other electrical needs.
Mal recently installed 10no. downlights dimmable downlights, a bar pendant over island and 2 pendants over dining table for us. After trying for nearly a year to get other electricians in to do the work, Mal sorted us out same day with a home visit and did the works the following week. Was open to adjustments on lighting locations and was very professional with his work.
Mal helped with wiring of my new decking lights, fan and heater. He's very professional and did an outstanding job. His attention to details is second to none. Will definitely use his service in the future. Highly recommend!
I had a number of electrical jobs required at my house, I found Mal's advertisement in an old local newspaper but I hadn't met him before. I felt I got lucky as Mal was both professional and efficient and turned up when he said he would. His work was excellent and I would happily use his services again.
Just had my old safety swicthes panel upgraded today. The cost was very good and the services was quick, efficient and delivered on time with good quality. Mal was very professional and helpful. Definetely will use Mal's services again.
Malcolm came to update our switchboard and move some of our light switches. Malcolm was responsive and was able to undertake the works in a quick and efficient manner for a great price. Thanks Malcom!
We recently needed an electrician and found Standby Electrical after looking for a local business online.
There were a number of things we wanted checked to ensure they were safe and also quotes to replace all the down lights with LEDs. Mal was great, he explained everything thoroughly and also made additional suggestions. He had a sample LED so we could see what it looked like and get an idea of the brightness. We immediately felt confident that he would do great job so we booked in to get all the works done.
We now feel confident the house is safe, the fuse box has been updated and safely switches upgraded, sensor lights now working and the difference with the LEDs is just fantastic.
We would definitely recommend using Standby Electrical Services
I would thoroughly recommend Standby Electrical. The principal Malcom Kendrick went above and beyond to get extra power into my house. Malcolm and his team were professional throughout the whole process and kept me informed with everything that was happening.
I had chosen Standby Electrical Services after googling for electricians and I am so glad I did. I don't know how I would have had the job done so seemlessly.
Totally happy and the biggest recommendation. Thanks Malcolm.
Good honest reliable electrician who carried out the work efficiently and true to quoted price. Can highly recommend.
Would highly recommend Standby Electrical Services. Malcom was extremely thorough, professional, honest and reliable. Malcom arrived very promptly and is very affordable.
Thank you Malcom!
Mal was incredibly efficient and installed a replacement wall oven, fans, lights and updated my fuse box as well as identified issues I was having with my utility costs. He gave me great info on where to source needed parts for other home fittings I am repairing. Imagine my surprise and delight once he repaired and connected a new switchboard that an internal cooling system sprang to life which had been dead since I moved into the house in 2002.
I have Mal’s card and not going to lose it!
We recently had the pleasure of having Mal from Standby Electrical Services carry out some works at our home. I have been searching for a tradesman like Mal for a long time. Someone who is professional, knowledgeable, and reliable. Someone who listens to what you want done, offers suggestions and options and then works with you to find the best solution. Mal is gentleman who was very easy to worth with. We have an older home and have engaged many tradesmen over the last 30 years for various works and I would have to say that Mal has been a standout.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Mal and his business to anyone needing a great Electrician.
Mal has been our electrician since we started our small business 2 years ago. He has done a variety of jobs, some being extremely complicated. Mal's knowledge, efficiency & professionalism have always been outstanding. He is the real deal, the kind of electrician that you can count on for impeccable service & very reasonable rates. He is always very up-front & there's never any hidden charges or unnecessary work. On a personal note, he's a super friendly guy & always has a joke or 2 up his sleeve.
Can't recommend him highly enough!
Excellent, professional service.
Thanks Mal!
Very happy with the service very old house had to replace some power points and junction boxes! Very hard worker could not believe how fast he was.
Highly recommend!!!
Would highly recommend Standby Electrical Services. Malcom was extremely thorough, professional, honest and reliable. Malcom arrived very promptly and is very affordable. I would definitely be calling Standby Electrical Services again!
Thank you Malcom!
Came same day we called, even earlier than booked in. Thorough checks and diagnosis performed on all possible issues. Very professional and pleasant manner.
Highly recommended.
We called Mal with a list of electrical tasks a mile long - and the list kept growing as our renovations proceeded. We had some tricky requests and Mal was only too happy to help. He didn't cut any corners and he explained everything along the way. We are so grateful that he was able to help resolve some dodgy electrical work done in the past (it's an old house) and it's a relief to know that all of our electricals are now safe and sound . I have every confidence in Mal's work and couldn't recommend him more highly. Honestly, I wouldn't call anyone else for any future electrical work.
Thanks Mal.
Work is great, no issues. Always happy to have you Mal.
You're reliable, honest and do a great job.
Lets keep it simple. I emailed for a quote and received a call back the same day to book an appointment. Malcolm turned up when he said he would. We agreed a price and again he turned up on the day he said he would to carry out the work.
This is the very kind of service we all expect, why look elsewhere trying to save a few $$. Good to find a reliable trades person.
We had a problem with a power point arcing almost causing an electrical fire. Mal was able to get to us in 30 minutes and provided excellent service and repairs.
Great service. Mal Turned up within 30 minutes of calling and did the job in super quick time. Also gave good advice to avoid a repeat of the problem. Will call him again if any future electrical work is required.
After and electrical fire on a Saturday morning we called Mal who came to our rescue. He came out straight away and restored power to our house. He later returned to upgrade out switch board and arranged for a safety inspection. Mal explained exactly what was required and completed all of the required work in a timely and efficient manner. For an obviously experienced and reliable electrician his work was first class and rates very reasonable. Would highly recommend Mal and Standby Electrical Services for both domestic and industrial needs.
Extremely happy with both the quality of work and the high level of professionalism from Malcolm. We had oven and range hood installed without issue. We found Malcolm knowledgeable, accommodating and flexible. He was on time, respectful and even cleaned up after himself. Would definitely call on him again in future.
Last week Malcom assisted in a repair to my stovetop. What I thought was going to be small repair turned out to be quite complex, but that was not an issue for Malcom. Repairs were completed to a very high standard and Malcom was a pleasure to deal with and very responsive. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend his services!
Mal was fantastic- very professional, responsive, knowledgeable & extremely helpful with upgrading our very old switchboard & making meter panel alterations. Thank you, Mal! I'd highly recommend his service to anyone.
