What's included

With extensive experience in government and education projects, we deliver safe, efficient, and compliant electrical work in high-responsibility environments.

Every government & education job we do is performed by a qualified BEC electrician, signed off with a Certificate of Compliance where required, and backed by our lifetime workmanship warranty. The scope is fixed in writing before we start so you know exactly what's covered for the price you're quoted.

How the project runs

Coverage area

We deliver government & education across the Brisbane region, with most jobs landing inside the inner suburbs — Milton, Brisbane, Brisbane CBD, Toowong, Auchenflower, Paddington, West End, South Brisbane, Fortitude Valley, New Farm. For established commercial and facilities clients we work further afield by arrangement.

What it costs

Most government & education jobs are quoted on a fixed-price basis after we've seen the work — either on site or via photos. We don't quote rough hourly rates because they almost always cost more than the customer expected. The quote we give you is the price you pay, unless the scope changes (in which case we'll get a variation signed before doing the extra work).

/ Common questions

Government & Education — common questions.

Are you experienced with government tendering?

Yes — we've delivered electrical works for state government and education clients across Queensland, and we're set up for the documentation and compliance government clients require. We respond to formal tenders with the structured response, supporting evidence, licensing, insurance certificates, and prior-project references the brief asks for. We're also comfortable on lower-value direct-engagement and prequalified panel work.

Do you have the safety certifications to work on schools?

Yes — every electrician we send to a school site is qualified and Blue Card-holding, and our QHSE system is structured to AS/NZS 4801. We handle the additional school-specific paperwork (working-with-children, contractor inductions, sign-in registers, hot-works permits) as standard, and we coordinate work outside school hours where the brief or risk assessment requires it.

Can you manage a project from quote through to handover?

Yes — for government and education projects we manage the full lifecycle: site inspection and quote, scope sign-off, program development, sub-contractor coordination if needed, weekly client reporting during delivery, defects rectification, and a structured handover pack on completion (as-builts, Certificates of Compliance, test results, equipment manuals). The handover pack is what keeps everyone honest at audit time.

Do you handle compliance documentation and as-built drawings?

Yes — every government and education job we do produces the documentation pack the client needs at handover. That covers Certificates of Compliance, AS/NZS 3000 wiring documentation, RCD and emergency lighting test logs, switchboard schedules, and as-built drawings updated to reflect what was actually installed. The pack is delivered in PDF and editable formats so the asset owner can keep it current over the life of the asset.

Can you work outside school hours?

Yes — for school sites we routinely program disruptive work for school holidays, weekends or after-hours so classrooms, playgrounds and admin offices stay accessible during teaching periods. We quote the after-hours rate up front and coordinate access with the facilities officer or principal so the school knows exactly when crews will be on site.

Do you carry the insurances government clients require?

Yes — public liability, professional indemnity, and workers' compensation cover at the levels government clients typically require. Certificates of currency are provided as part of the prequalification or tender response, and we re-issue them every renewal so your panel records stay up to date.
