What to check

Six things worth
checking

Any one of these is worth a phone call to our team.

Power points that spark or feel warm

Heat, buzzing or scorch marks at a power point suggest a loose or failing connection. Have a Hobart electrician check it before you use it again.

Lights that flicker or dim

Flickering across more than one room often means an overloaded circuit or a loose connection at the switchboard.

Breakers that trip repeatedly

Repeat tripping is a sign the circuit is carrying more than it was wired for, or an appliance is faulting.

Not enough power points

Relying on power boards and double adaptors is a common risk in older Hobart homes. Extra power points fix it properly.

Smoke alarms past their date

Most smoke alarms need replacing after 10 years. If yours are old or untested, have them checked and replaced.

You are renovating or extending

New rooms, kitchens and bathrooms need wiring, lighting and power planned before the walls are closed up.
