Do you do new residential builds and renovations?
Yes — both. New construction and renovations of residential projects are both specialties of Briselec. We can wire a brand-new home from rough-in through fit-off, or carry out the electrical works for a renovation, addition or upgrade.
What does ‘energy efficient install’ actually mean?
It means we plan the circuit layout, cable sizing and lighting plan in a way that minimises wasted power and gives you sensible control — LED-friendly dimmers, well-placed switches and zones, and a switchboard that’s set up for the loads it will actually carry over the life of the home.
Can you handle lighting design or do I need a separate designer?
We can work either way. If you’ve already engaged a designer or architect we’ll execute the plan; if you haven’t, we’ll talk you through the practical decisions — where to put downlights, where pendants make sense, how to handle joinery and step lighting.
How do you price residential work?
Most residential projects get a written fixed-price quote up front once the scope is clear. For small one-off jobs that aren’t sensibly priced over the phone, we’ll arrange a quick site visit, scope the work, and follow up with a quote within a business day.
Do you work in occupied homes during renovations?
Yes. We’re used to working around busy households — confirming arrival times, isolating circuits as needed so the rest of the house stays live, and keeping the workspace tidy at end of day.
What if something doesn’t work properly after installation?
Give us a call. We back our installation work and we’ll come out and put it right. The vast majority of issues are simple to diagnose and fix on the first visit.
Can you upgrade an older switchboard?
Yes. Older Brisbane homes often need switchboard upgrades to handle the load of modern appliances, EV chargers, induction cooktops and ducted air. We can quote a like-for-like replacement or a more comprehensive upgrade that future-proofs the board.
Do you book directly or via the builder?
Either way. If you’re the homeowner driving the renovation, deal direct with us. If your builder coordinates trades, we’ll happily slot into their schedule.
