Why Long Bay homeowners call Andy
Long Bay is mostly newer housing, with development still going on around it, and that gives it a different set of electrical needs from the older suburbs further down the coast. The wiring itself is generally sound and recent. What is usually missing is anything beyond the standard: enough lighting in the right places, power where the room is actually used, an outdoor circuit that does more than run one light by the back door.
So the work here is mostly alteration rather than repair. Adding lighting and power, putting in a charger, heating an outdoor area, improving ventilation, changing what the builder specified into what the household needs. The advantage of a newer home is that the switchboard usually has room in it, which makes most of those additions simpler and cheaper than they would be in a house of the same size two suburbs south.
“Very happy with my new LED lights! Andy's work was efficient and professional. He had lots of great advice, that put my mind at ease. The job was done sooner than expected and I am really enjoying the result. Andy is a kind and friendly person and if you have any electrical work that needs doing, I strongly recommend talking to Electrical Plus Limited.”
“Andy and the EP team completed all electrical, lighting, AV, and security work on our full house renovation to the highest standard. Punctual, thoughtful, and conscientious, with acute attention to detail and future-proofing, highlighting their experience. Most importantly, great communication for any project, large or small. Highly recommend.”
“I use Electrical Plus whenever I have electrical or automation issues and Andy is always my first call. He consistently turns up when he says he will, does an outstanding job every time, and takes a huge amount of pride in his work, which really shows in the finished result. Reliable, knowledgeable, and easy to deal with. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Electrical Plus to anyone needing quality electrical work.”

Because a new house is wired to a specification, not to how you live in it. The most common jobs we do in newer homes are adding lighting and power points, installing a car charger, wiring outdoor heating and improving ventilation. None of that is a fault with the house, it is just the next layer.
Usually, yes. Newer switchboards tend to have spare capacity and room for another circuit, and the garage is often close to the board, which shortens the cable run. We still check the board and the supply first, because that is what decides whether load management is needed.
