Had a fantastic experience with Chris and his team. They came out to replace a number of our old lights with led down-lights and did a great job. On time, very helpful and honest. Had one of the lights start flickering a few years later and the team came out quickly and fixed the issue! Would highly recommend!

I have used this company for a number of jobs, over a number of years. Their work ethic is second to none and their work quality is of a very high standard. They are punctual and clean up afterwards. Also happy with the price. This is a company I have never had a problem with and fully recommend.

Chris is very friendly, flexible and helpful. He helped me to install a few sets of Wifi-Enabled smart light panels. He service started even before he came to my place! He gave me advices on products and reminded me about the safety of imported products. At the end of the day, safety is the most important thing. He arrived on time, let me know when he is on the way. So that I can get prepared. Since there are multiple 2-way circuits at home, the task isnt straight forward as planned... Though, Chris still patiently finish the work and gave me advices on how to setup the networking

Carnegie Electrical Services did an excellent job rewiring the house for my elderly parents. The elderlies did not even have to move out as Chris did his best to minimise the disruption of their daily routine. Chris is exceptionally knowledgeable, experienced and skilled - a real expert in electrical work. If you are looking for an honest, reliable, highly efficient electrician with reasonable pricing, I strongly recommend Chris and his team.
