/ 02 — Frequently asked

Residential — answered. Questions we hear most.

Do you cover the Red Hill and inner-Brisbane area?

Yes — Forrest Electrical Group is based in Kelvin Grove, just minutes from Red Hill, and most of our residential work happens across the inner-northern Brisbane suburbs. We're happy to travel further into South-East Queensland for larger jobs and ongoing clients. If you're unsure whether we cover your suburb, give us a call and we'll let you know on the spot.

What residential electrical work can you carry out?

Everything inside the home: full rewires for renovations and heritage homes, switchboard upgrades, lighting design and installation, ceiling fan and extractor fan installs, smoke alarm compliance, power point additions, hot water and HRV connections, EV charger installs, and home automation. As Master Electricians we test and certify every job to current Australian standards before we leave site.

Can you help me choose lights and fittings before installing?

Absolutely. Lighting design is one of the parts of a renovation we genuinely enjoy. We'll talk through the rooms with you, advise on lighting layouts and the right fittings for the look you're after, and either supply the products ourselves or install fittings you've sourced — whichever way you prefer to do it.

How does pricing for residential work get quoted?

For small one-off jobs (a power point, a fan install, a fault find) we charge a call-out plus time on the tools, and we tell you the rates before we book in. For renovations, new builds and bigger projects we provide a fixed written quote after a site visit so there are no surprises. We don't add charges for parking or PPE.

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes — we hold Electrical Contractors Licence No. 88742 in Queensland, are registered Master Electricians, hold ARC refrigerant authorisation (AU32044) and TITAB (T12101) for telecommunications. We carry full public liability insurance for residential and commercial work and can provide certificates of currency on request.

Do you offer warranties on your workmanship?

Every electrical job we do is tested, certified and covered by our workmanship warranty. Manufactured products (switches, fittings, A/C units) come with their original manufacturer warranty which we register on your behalf at install time. If something we installed isn't right, we come back and fix it.

Are your electricians police-checked and tidy on site?

Yes. The team is uniformed, drives marked vehicles, and treats your home like it's still being lived in — drop sheets, shoes off where it matters, and a clean-up at the end of every visit. Where we'll be working in occupied homes for multiple days, we time the disruption around your family routine.
