Your Local Team For Home Electrical Work

At Cairns City Electrics, we're the electrician in Cairns homeowners call when something needs installing, upgrading or simply working again. Our work covers smoke alarm installation, fault finding and switchboard upgrades, including modern combination breaker/safety switch protection (RCBOs) and full installation surge protection. It also covers solar panel installation, solar maintenance and cleaning, plus EV charger installation, alongside the everyday jobs like ceiling fans, lighting and powerpoints. One team handles all of it, rather than several trades turning up on separate days. That range also helps us spot the smaller faults sitting behind the obvious one, so a callout about a tripping circuit doesn't become a repeat visit a month later. Replacing tired old wiring and boards now future-proofs the house and buys you peace of mind down the track. We'll explain what we've found in plain language, talk you through your options and tidy up before we leave. Call us on 0448 822 282 to book a visit.

Residential services

What We Take Care Of

Smoke Alarm Installation

Smoke alarms have to meet current standards, and the rules have changed enough over the past few years that plenty of homes are now behind. We handle smoke alarm installation and replacement, including interconnected units that all sound together.

Fault Finding

A light that flickers or a circuit that keeps tripping usually has a cause worth finding properly rather than resetting and hoping. Our fault finding work traces the problem back to its source so the repair actually holds.

EV Charger Installation

Charging an electric vehicle from a standard powerpoint is slow, and not every switchboard is ready for a dedicated charger. We take care of EV charger installation end to end, including the checks that come first.

Solar Panel Installation

Getting solar onto a roof properly is as much an electrical job as a mounting one. We manage solar panel installation from the panel layout through to the switchboard connection.

Solar Maintenance & Cleaning

Panels lose output when they're dirty or when a component quietly fails, and most owners only notice once the bill arrives. Regular solar maintenance and cleaning keeps the system producing what it should.

Switchboard Upgrades & Generator Change-Over Switches

An older switchboard can struggle with the load a modern household puts through it. We handle switchboard upgrades and generator change-over switches, bringing the board up to current safety standards.

Straight answers

Why Choose Us?

Choosing an electrician usually comes down to whether you'll get a straight answer and a job finished properly. We work almost entirely with homeowners, so we're used to jobs happening around family routines, pets and a house that still needs to function while we're in it. We'll give you the honest version of what a job involves, including when something can wait and when it really shouldn't. Our work covers the full residential range, which means we can look at a problem in context rather than fixing one symptom and leaving the rest for someone else.
