Licensing & Compliance

Do I need a licensed electrician for all electrical work in Queensland?

Yes. In Queensland, all electrical work — including installing power points, light fittings, switchboards, and ceiling fans — must be carried out by a licensed electrician. DIY electrical work is illegal and dangerous. LSB Electrical Solutions operates as a registered electrical contractor in Queensland.

Are you licenced to work on security systems and CCTV?

Yes. In addition to our full electrical licence, LSB Electrical Solutions holds a security contractor licence that allows us to legally install, maintain, and upgrade security camera systems, CCTV, access control, and alarm systems on the Gold Coast.

Will the work be compliant with Australian Wiring Rules?

Absolutely. All work we complete is carried out to AS/NZS 3000 (the Australian Wiring Rules) and relevant Queensland Electrical Safety Act requirements. We provide Certificates of Test for all work that requires certification, giving you peace of mind for insurance and resale purposes.

Can you help with EV charger installation?

Yes. We install EV charging points and solar diverters for both residential and commercial properties across the Gold Coast. We'll assess your switchboard capacity, advise on the right charger for your vehicle and property, and handle the full installation.

How long does a switchboard upgrade take?

A residential switchboard upgrade typically takes 4–6 hours for a single-phase property. Larger commercial switchboards may take 1–2 days. We provide exact timing estimates during the quote stage after inspecting your existing setup.

Do you work on shop fit-outs and new commercial tenancies?

Yes — shop fit-outs are one of our specialisations. We handle everything from lighting design and power distribution to data cabling, emergency lighting, and CCTV for retail, hospitality, and commercial tenancies. We work closely with builders and project managers to meet fit-out timelines.

Can you install smart home lighting and automation?

Yes. We install and configure smart lighting systems, dimmers, and home automation solutions. Whether you're integrating with an existing smart home platform or starting fresh, we can design and install a system to suit your needs and budget.
