Electrical Safety Inspections & Reports

An electrical safety inspection tells you what's actually behind the walls before you buy, rent out or take responsibility for a property. We check the switchboard, earthing, RCDs, smoke alarms, visible wiring, outlets and fittings, and put it all in a written report.

Popular with buyers looking at older homes through Spearwood, Coogee and Bibra Lake, and with landlords and property managers meeting their WA obligations.
