A kitchen fitted with black pendant lights over the island bench
Wandong & Heathcote Junction

Your local sparky,
and he turns up.

I'm Liam McGrath. I run McGrath Electric Services out of Wandong, doing residential work across the Mitchell Shire. Switchboards, fault finding, lighting and the jobs on the list you keep meaning to sort out. Tidy work, a clear price before I start, and a text if I'm running late.

What I do

Residential service and repair, mostly.

That's where I specialise, so it's where I'm quickest and where the price is fairest. Renovation work and small commercial jobs too. If you're not sure whether something is worth a call, ring and ask.

Fault finding in progress with an insulation tester, clamp meter and voltage tester
  • 01

    Power point & light installations

    An extra point where you actually need one, a light moved, a TV brought up onto the wall. The small jobs that sit on a list for months.

  • 02

    Switchboard upgrades & safety checks

    Modern RCBO safety switches on their own circuits, so a fault in one room does not take out the house. Labelled properly before I leave.

  • 03

    Fault finding & repairs

    Insulation tester, clamp meter and a methodical approach, rather than swapping parts until something works. You get told what the fault was.

  • 04

    LED lighting upgrades

    Downlights, strip lighting under cabinetry and in niches, pendants over a bench. Warm light that makes a room look finished.

  • 05

    Ceiling fans

    Supplied and installed, or a swap for a tired one. Balanced properly so it runs quiet on the higher speeds.

  • 06

    Smoke alarms

    Installation and replacement, including interconnected alarms so every one in the house sounds together.

  • 07

    Renovations & small commercial work

    Rough-in and fit-off through a renovation, working around the other trades, plus small commercial jobs.

Recent work

Labelled, tested, and cleaned up before I go.

A few jobs from around the shire. Some of these photos were taken by the customers themselves.

A bathroom with warm LED strip lighting under a floating timber vanity and inside a mirror niche
Strip lighting run under the vanity and into the mirror niche. Warm, and hidden where the fittings should be.
A stack of Voltex RCBO safety switches beside a Voltex UniLine switchboard box
RCBOs ready for a switchboard upgrade. One safety switch per circuit, so a fault in the kitchen does not black out the bedrooms.
An IP65 junction box with three cables through glands, circuits labelled 10, 04 and 05
Glanded, sealed, and every circuit numbered. The next sparky who opens this will know exactly what he is looking at.
A finished white kitchen with an island bench, bar stools and recessed lighting
Pendants over the island, a dimmer on the circuit, and a couple of extra points where they were actually wanted. This customer has had me back four times.
A tape measure, speed square and a carpenter's pencil printed with the words Never work live

The pencil says "Never work live". It is not a slogan, it is the job.

About

Fully licensed, fully insured, and local.

My name's Liam and McGrath Electric Services is my business. I work out of Wandong and Heathcote Junction, which means when you call, you get someone who lives here rather than someone pricing in an hour of travel each way.

I specialise in residential service and repair: reliable, tidy workmanship, clear communication and fair pricing. That's the whole pitch. The reviews tend to say the same few things back at me, which is a good sign, because those are the things I try hardest to get right.

Liam was fantastic from start to finish. He was punctual, professional, and took the time to explain everything clearly before getting started. The work was completed efficiently, with great attention to detail, and everything was left clean and tidy afterwards. I really appreciated his friendly attitude and high-quality workmanship. I highly recommend Liam to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy electrician.

So, fourth time I've engaged Liam for a job. Let this be known - still punctual. I mean seriously on-the-dot punctual. IF running 'late' you will receive a text - and 'late' usually means 5 mins.

Extremely impressed and satisfied with Liam and Aaron's professionalism and punctuality. It was a very long day for them but nothing was too much trouble they cleaned up my apartment beautifully on completion! Thanks guys! Dianne

Was recommended Mcgrath Electrical Services through a friend and was not disappointed. Liam was prompt and up front with the quotes over the phone so I was not wasting any time. The job was done in a timely manner and the workmanship was second to none. He was very professional and easy to get along with. Will definitely recommend him and his team and will be using them again in the future.

Liam takes pride in his work - leaves no stone unturned. I changed my mind twice on length of pendant lights - Liam accommodated - no job too small or too big.
