ATD Electrical Residential Services

We have been serving the residents in Wollongong for decades and have made a few friends along the way! Residential services are one of the most common callouts we get and we can service your area promptly.

Residents can experience all sorts of problems in their homes that are related to electrical requirements. Circuit breakers might frequently trip, electricity bills might be too high, the power supply might be erratic, or the lights might be too dim or bright.

Even if you don’t experience any outright electrical problems, it’s definitely a good idea to get a check-up once in a while.

ATD Electrical Commercial Services

If the WiFi runs out, people will complain! The vast majority of commercial establishments are now using point of sale technology to process payments, which runs on the internet and needs a power supply to work.

The most common causes of commercial electrical problems are power outages or tripped circuit breakers. This can be exceptionally frustrating for business owners, and result in a loss of income. If customers experience even minor delays, they are unlikely to come again. If you are experiencing any of these problems, call us straight away. We have a 24/7 emergency response unit at hand to guide you through the situation.

ATD Electrical can also install a robust electrical system so that you don’t have to worry about electrical failures in your commercial establishment. It’s better to get it right the first time. In addition, your commercial property will be safer, more efficient, and your typical bill will be lower. We can also provide electrical maintenance on existing systems so you know that everything is in good working condition.

How do I know if I need An Electrician?

If the fuse keeps tripping, it is a sign that something is amiss. But there are many other signs. If your electricity bill is too high, then it’s worth getting a professional to investigate. If the lights flicker on and off or you notice differences in power during certain times of the day, then it is time to call in an electrical service provider. If your electrical system is old, then you may also need to get a professional in for an upgrade.

How can I upgrade my electrical system?

The first step is upgrading your panel by bringing more power from the utility to your home. You can replace the existing meter and circuit breakers to allow it to handle more power. Alternatively, you could replace an electrical panel or circuit breakers that are obsolete, damaged or dangerous. However, this can be a dangerous task, and it is often best to hire a professional service.

How often should you check your electrical system?

This depends on how old your home is and how much power you use every day. The more power you use, which depends on your appliances, the increase in general wear. Most electricians recommend every 3 – 5 years. You should test your outlets at least twice a year at home, simply by pushing the test/reset button.

When should I get an electrical inspection?

If you have been experiencing any electrical problems like regular power outages or tripped circuit breakers you should consider an electrical inspection as it can identify any electrical safety problems or deficiencies it is especially useful for those who are living in older homes.

Why is it important to inspect and test electrical appliances?

Electrical and gas inspections are extremely important for home, work and office safety. Having these inspections performed regularly will ensure that all of your wires and appliances are in working order. This helps to lower the risk of an accident occurring.

How do I know that an electrical services company is legitimate?

There are two main ways of knowing this. The first is to ask how many years the company has been in business. And the second is the reviews on various platforms. A 10 year plus company with multiple 5-star reviews is legitimate. It is easy to spot cowboy electricians with basic research. But most people do not complete their due diligence.

Will Rewiring a House Add Market Value?

Not directly. Rewiring a house will certainly benefit you in terms of your overall electricity bill. However, you need to do this anywhere every 20 – 40 years, depending on the condition of your home and the quality of the original installation. If you need a rewire, then you need a rewire. Old systems are a definite hazard (potentially leading to house fires) and the insulation on the cable will start to breakthrough. Moreover, older systems are often woefully inefficient.

Guy and team are professionals and go out of their way to personally make sure the job gets done. ATE installed my EV wall charger and Guy had no hesitation in returning to my home on a Saturday to help me get the charger started. I will use ATD again.Michael in Woonona

Had an electrical problem in the restaurantWent through 2 electricians(popular reviews, but did nothing about finding the problem and charged for doing nothing) before we called ATD Electrical. I've been in construction for a while so can tell the guys that give excuses to try and charge more for things that were not needed. I also had a good idea what the fault was.ATD came exactly when they said they would, which is rare these days. He then assessed the fault and tested till he found the problem. Very professional with a minimum of interference with our staff service. It's hard finding trades that are good at their job. The price was very reasonable for the works done.I waited a couple weeks before writing a review to ensure the problem was fixed and its all good. It's rare for me to recommend a trade. But I cannot praise ATD Electrical enough. If you need an electrician these are the guys to get.

Mark Har

Great experience with ATD Electrical. Very fast response to a defective fan warranty issue that was not their issue. Guy was very professional and replaced the fan without any issues. I would recommend ATD Electrical to anyone who needs electrical work completed.

Andy Robertson

07:51 20 Jun 24

Fantastic customer service! Called at 4pm and the next morning at 7:30am the oven was getting replaced. Chris was wonderful and arrived on time and quickly got to work. Highly recommend.

Harriet Lidbetter

01:35 14 Jun 24

Great service. Contacted their office just before 9am and they were onsite before 11:30am. The technician was very pleasant & professional and had the main fault rectified that day.

Greg Todd

I had an emergency at my business that needed urgent attention. I called ATD electrical and spoke to Nicole who was fantastic and assured me she could get someone out to help me within 30 minutes. I was back up and operating within an hour. Fantastic service and a truly professional team. Thank you to everyone involved.

Michelle Swain

I would highly recommend ATD electrical. An outstanding local business with very prompt service at an affordable price. Chris was very professional and friendly. Most importantly, safety and workmanship is the highest priority and customer service and satisfaction second to none. Thank you for doing a wonderful job installing my new fan. I couldn’t be happier.

Carrie Panozzo

06:08 29 Feb 24

I was very happy with the work done by Chris. He installed 2 wall light fittings in my bedroom + replaced a broken switch in kitchen and removed an unwanted ceiling fan. I was happy how he paid attention to detail

Christine Smallwood (Chris)

19:40 09 Feb 24

ATD replaced the cable on my car charger (a warranty job). It was a fairly straight-forward task, but what stood out was the effort that Guy in the office went to to schedule the work as soon as the replacement was available. I let him know when the cable arrived, and there was an electrician at my house within 24 hours to switch it out. Great service.

Mark Webby

23:33 30 Jan 24

I had Annie and Reece install a fan for me, what a pleasure it was to have them both in my house. Professional, respectful, courteous and what a job. Cleaned up returned my furniture and ran me through how to operate. It was just over 24 hrs from my enquiry to being shown how to use it. Amazing! Do yourself a Favour and call them for your electrical needs.

Mishell Smith

Damien and Chris installed some white eco-friendly voltex led light fans. They look great and work well. The boys were friendly and efficient on a 37 degree day. Overall Great job!

Just recently had ATD provide installation of fans, power points and smoke alarms. Chris, Damien and Annie were friendly, professional, shared some great ideas and went above and beyond to ensure the works had minimal impact for me. Attention to Detail provided me exactly what the name promises.

Recently had our electricity distribution board upgraded and a light fitting installed by ATD technicians Chis and Annie. Both were very professional and courteous. Very satisfied with the job and would without hesitation engage with ADT for future projects.Bruce Kell

I highly recommend ATD Electrical for both emergency and general work. I’ve engaged them 4 times recently. Twice for emergency work (2021 and 2023) and twice for general work (2019 and 2023). From the moment the phone is answered (quite quickly and 24/7) to the tidying up by the electricians just before they leave, it’s as a professional organisation as you’ll find anywhere.Guy, who took my calls with the emergencies, will organise what’s needed while you wait or ring back with attendance details within a few minutes. Chris and Annie, who fixed my most recent emergency and, separately, attended to some long needed general work, go about their business competently, efficiently and pleasantly. On my experience, this organisation can’t be faulted.

Peter Johnston

07:16 20 Aug 23

Highly recommend ATD Electrical for your next electrical repair, maintenance or installation.When booking my job I experienced very efficient and professional communication from Guy who kept me updated on the timeframe. Chris and Annie, the tradies who worked on my installation, arrived on time and came with all materials needed for the day; they worked very efficiently with professionalism and displayed courtesy at all times; very pleased with my sub-floor ventilation system. Five stars.

Bob Owen

00:36 16 Aug 23

Great work from a very efficient team. Guy came out due to an emergency and was understanding, on time and very professional. Guy made our house safe following water damage. Chris and Annalise came a couple of days later when the water dried and performed a thorough inspection of the electrical work in our house.HIGHLY recommend these guys

Gregory Fawcett

11:59 09 Jul 23

I am very happy with ATD service, as I went from having a dead electrical oven to a working one (wife is happy, as well) and the locking function, after the power outage in east Wollongong on the 3rd of May, became stuck in that mode, as well. ATD were able to disable the locking mode on oven, and also observed that the power plug had the wrong tooth (potential fire hazard, if it shorted out) and replace it, there and then.

Ian Cook

00:16 20 Jun 23

Guy was a pleasure to deal with & Annie was professional and very tidy in her work. happy to recommend.

John Young

02:35 19 Jun 23

We hired an emergency generator used on 1 cargo ship from this company. They were extremely efficient and professional. Especially, Guy was the most helpful sales rep we have seen, responding to an extremely urgent and tedious inquiry in a friendly, professional manner. He also does his best to save you money by making extra effort to complete the project in an efficient, effective way. I highly recommend ATD for any electrical work required.

Sung Chi Choi

11:30 24 May 23

Guy was a great help at the end of the phone. He understood what we wanted and how to achieve it. We were kept informed every step of the way.The team on site - Annie & Chris (I think) were friendly and totally professional. They did a great job and we would definitely use this company again.:)

Catherine Saunders

Bathroom extraction fan installed.I had to defer the job a few times because of the nature of my work. They worked with me each time to set a new date. On the install day the 3 technicians were polite, respectful and cleaned up after themselves. No shortcuts on the job either. Very professional. Thanks to Chris, Annie & Alex on the install and Guy for helping me rearrange installation multiple times and always responding to the copious amount of messages I sent.100pct recommend

Jason Cooper

ATD provided an exceptional service. We required a range of works completed (lighting, switches, cabling, mounting, etc.) after moving into our new apartment. I found the team professional, flexible, polite and enthusiastic throughout our whole experience. Highly recommend, will use again for any future work.

Matt Gordon

02:26 02 Feb 23

I have used ATD several times now and always found them to be very professional and thorough. Guy in the office always lets you know clearly when he can have someone attend your residence. This is usually sooner than later. Our electrician Chris worked tirelessly to solve our problems and I thoroughly appreciate his persistence to get a solution. He didn’t try to take shortcuts or find an easy way out. I totally recommend ATD electrical.

Alex Tavan

21:43 01 Feb 23

We are very pleased with the attention and prompt service we have received from ATD Electrical. Chris has been excellent in dealing with our fault in the operation of the Sahara Fan Heater, Light and Exhaust. The unit was replaced with a new unit and is working brilliantly. The service offered by Chris from ATD Electrical was top notch. He arrived on time, was efficient, professional and a good communicator. Our thanks to everyone involved in attending to our problem.

The team at ATD Electrical were fantastic. On realising that we were getting the house painted they removed all fittings for easy access. They then explained ‘special electrical features’ they found and why they should be rectified. They have always communicated well (different options and pricing), turned up on time, stayed late to complete the job and even cleaned up mess that had been left by the painter. Highly recommend ATD Electrical.

Tracey Rose

11:37 28 Jul 22

We have used ATD Electrical a few years ago to rewire the inside of our house. They were very professional in all aspects of the job and that is why we contacted them again th inspect and repair the main wiring from the supply outside to the house and meter box. Once again the guy,s were on time as arranged. Guy and Chris were friendly and professional in carrying out the repairs and from what I could see and understand it was done properly. Thanks again ATD and their staff for a job well done. Would definitely use this company in the future if needed. Thankyou. Denis Cox.

A small note to thank Grace Jose and Guy for their efforts to help me over a sticky situation. I was caught up with the power supplier to what I now believe was a petty setup. ATD crew tried their best to help me out and for that I want to share good deed with other potential customers. Thanks ATD crew for your support.
