Our Power Point Services
Our qualified electricians provide a full range of quality power point solutions, including:
New Power Point Installation
Need an extra outlet behind the TV, in the kitchen, or beside the bed? We install new electrical power outlets exactly where you need them, with minimal disruption to your walls and décor. Whether it’s a single additional point or a complete fit-out for a renovation or extension, we’ll ensure your new outlets are properly placed, safely wired, and built to last.
Fault Diagnosis and Repairs
If you’ve noticed flickering lights when using a certain outlet, a slight burning smell, or an outlet that no longer works, don’t ignore it – it may indicate a deeper fault. We diagnose the cause and carry out safe repairs, whether it’s a loose connection, worn wiring, or a faulty fitting.
Power Outlet Replacements
Outlets wear out over time, particularly in older homes or where high-power appliances are used. We can remove ageing or cracked fittings and replace them with modern, compliant ones. We also assist with replacing discoloured or damaged power points caused by overheating or short circuits.
Upgrades to Modern Styles and Features
Need more versatility from your outlets? We can upgrade single outlets to doubles, or replace basic sockets with outlets that include built-in USB ports. This is a simple way to modernise your space and make charging devices easier – no adapters required.
All work is carried out by licensed electricians using high-quality parts that comply with Australian safety standards and regulations.
Types of Power Points We Install
Modern electrical power points come in a range of styles to suit different needs, from standard power outlets to weatherproof or smart power points. We supply and install the following types of outlets:
- Single and double outlets: Common in most households; suitable for everyday appliances and electronics
- USB combination outlets: Popular for bedrooms, living rooms and home offices; useful for charging phones, tablets and gadgets without needing adapters
- Outdoor weatherproof power points: Essential for use in patios, gardens, sheds and other outdoor areas; installed with covers to prevent water ingress
- Child-safe outlets: Ideal for families with young children, designed to reduce the risk of tampering or accidental contact
- Slimline and designer faceplates: Aesthetic options that blend in with contemporary interiors
If you’re unsure what type of power point is best for your home, we’re happy to provide advice and recommendations during our visit.
Signs Your Power Points Need Repair
Electrical power points can wear out over time, especially in older homes. If you notice any of the following issues, it’s best to have an electrician inspect them:
- Sparking or buzzing when plugging in appliances
- Discolouration or heat marks around the socket
- A loose or wobbly faceplate
- Intermittent or no power to connected appliances
- A burning smell near the outlet
- Visible cracks or damage
If any of these signs are present, it’s best to stop using the outlet and contact a licensed electrician for power point repair. Continuing to use a damaged or faulty outlet is a safety hazard that can increase the risk of electric shock or fire.
Why It’s Important to Use a Licensed Electrician
Installing or repairing power points may seem straightforward, but it involves working directly with your home’s electrical system – something that should never be attempted without the proper training and qualifications. In Australia, all electrical work must legally be carried out by a licensed electrician. This protects your safety, ensures the work meets Australian standards, and maintains your home insurance coverage.
At Electric Express, all our electricians are fully qualified, insured and experienced. Every job is completed to current regulations, and you’ll receive a Certificate of Compliance after installation or repair.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many power points can I have in one room?
There’s no strict limit, but the number should suit the number of appliances you use. We can help assess and recommend the right amount during a visit.
Can I replace a power point myself?
No. Any electrical work, including power point installation or repair, must be carried out by a licensed electrician to comply with Australian laws.
How long does it take to install a power point?
A standard installation usually takes less than an hour, depending on the location and access. We’ll always let you know if more time is required.
Do I need a USB power point, or should I just use an adapter?
Many customers find power points with USB sockets very convenient, especially in bedrooms and kitchens where device charging is common. They also help reduce reliance on multiple adaptors.
Are outdoor power points safe in the rain?
Yes. We install weatherproof outdoor outlets designed for safe use in all conditions. These are essential for outdoor kitchens, power tools, and garden lighting.
Can you replace an old single outlet with a double power point or USB outlet?
Absolutely. Upgrading your outlet is a common request, and we can often do it using the same wiring path, depending on the condition.
How much does it cost to install a power point?
The cost depends on factors like the type of outlet, access to wiring, and whether new cabling is needed. We provide clear, upfront pricing before any work begins.

the fuse keeps tripping … we're going to need a super sparkie quick! Without so
much as a drum roll, mild-mannered Steve was on the job in no time and working
smartly and efficiently soon tracked the culprit down to a flooded external motion
