I was really happy with the effort Sam…

I was really happy with the effort Sam went to fix our issue, which was a bit tricky, especially given a previous electrician was shown the same issue and we never heard from again!

On time, quick and painless

I had a small job wiring up a safety switch for some equipment in my garage. The team member was on site on-time, clear about what needed to be done and how long it would take, and was helpful solving a problem that appeared. Sorted quickly and with no fuss.

Outstanding Service

There are not enough stars to show my appreciation for the fantastic job that McIntosh Electrical did for me today. They were easy to book with, came at the exact time stated and did the whole job in just over 2 hours. I will recommend them to everyone in future.

Will always call McIntosh Electrical

Will always call McIntosh Electrical! The specialists are well informed about various products, helpful during planning with good advice. The company's professional culture is obvious with every electrician we've had at our house and office. Always on time, confirm what they're doing often, work efficiently, clean up afterwards, all with positive and "can do" attitudes. Excellent!

Outrageously expensive!

Way too expensive $291.50 for 20minutes, identified earth leak in domestic fridge. No materials used. Electrician suggested I replace 2 hard wired smoke alarms. Quote emailed to me $1045.
Can’t imagine how these prices are justified, feel completely ripped-off. ASK FOR A COST ESTIMATE, I WISH I DID!!!!!

Dear Simon,

Thank you for sharing your thoughts about the recent same-day emergency service from McIntosh Electrical for your tripped power circuit.

I understand your concern about the charges and want to clear things up. The $1045.00 you mentioned includes two separate options, not the total quote. Option 1 covers the installation of 10-Year Lithium Battery backup smoke alarms ($596+gst), and Option 2 is for the standard 240V/9V Battery backup smoke alarms ($358.00+gst).

We're sorry to hear you feel the value for money wasn't satisfactory. I trust Mark was able to resolve your issue. Our team works hard to provide an efficient and reliable service, and we take your feedback seriously.

If you have any more questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out. We appreciate your business and want to ensure your experience with McIntosh Electrical is positive.

Best regards,
Jenny McIntosh

Pleasure to deal with.
