Yes, we service Ipswich, from the heritage streets of the CBD, Booval and Silkstone through Raceview and Yamanto to the new estates of Ripley, Redbank Plains and Collingwood Park, plus Redbank and Goodna along the Ipswich Motorway. Our depot is in Woodridge, roughly 35 minutes from Ipswich Central via the Logan and Ipswich motorways, and about 25 minutes from Redbank Plains and Goodna.

Faze Electrical and Airconditioning holds both a Queensland electrical contractor licence (90552) and an ARCtick licence (L181564), so we can rewire a 1920s Queenslander in Silkstone and install a split system in a brand new Ripley home with the same team. Electrical work carries a 12 month workmanship warranty and split system installations 5 years, and we hold 4.9 stars on Google from more than 340 reviews.

What we do in Ipswich

Ipswich is Queensland’s oldest provincial city, and its inner suburbs carry the electrical history to prove it. Booval, Silkstone, Redbank and older Goodna have timber Queenslanders and post-war cottages, many still with cloth-insulated or early PVC wiring, ceramic fuses and no safety switches. For those homes we do full and partial rewires, switchboard upgrades, and safety certification before sale or rental. If you are weighing it up, read our guide on the signs a house needs rewiring.

Raceview and the established parts of Redbank Plains and Collingwood Park are 1970s to 1990s brick homes where the work is replacing original air conditioners, adding ceiling fans and LED downlights, and upgrading boards that have run out of capacity. Ripley, Yamanto and the newer Redbank Plains estates are new-build country: EV chargers, extra circuits, bedroom splits, security lighting and data cabling.

Goodna and parts of Redbank flooded in 2011 and 2022. We relocate switchboards and power points above known flood levels, test and recertify circuits after water damage and install interconnected smoke alarms as part of rebuilds. Our commercial electrician team also looks after retail and medical tenancies from Booval Fair to Yamanto Central.

Suburbs we cover in Ipswich

Electrician Ipswich

Central Ipswich is heritage territory, with Queenslanders, workers cottages and the revitalised Nicholas Street precinct. Older homes here often need rewiring, new switchboards and lighting that respects a character interior, while the CBD offices and shops need commercial fit outs, exit lighting and RCD testing.

Electrician Booval

Booval is one of Ipswich’s older suburbs, built out from the early 1900s through the 1970s around the station and Booval Fair. Fuse boards and aged wiring are the norm in the older streets, so switchboard upgrades, safety switch installs and rewires are our core work, along with split systems in homes that have only ever had fans.

Electrician Silkstone

Silkstone is post-war and 1960s housing on modest blocks between Booval and Raceview. Many homes are on their original wiring, so we do rewires, switchboard upgrades and smoke alarm compliance, and we regularly find outbuildings and sheds wired decades ago that need bringing up to standard.

Electrician Raceview

Raceview is 1970s to 1990s brick homes around Raceview Shopping Village and its schools. The most common jobs are replacing early split systems with inverter units, LED downlight conversions, ceiling fans and adding safety switches to boards that only protect the lighting circuits.

Electrician Yamanto

Yamanto has shifted from acreage to suburb since Yamanto Central opened in April 2021 with Coles and Kmart. New estate homes need extra circuits, EV charging and bedroom air conditioning, while the remaining acreage blocks need shed power, pumps and long underground runs.

Electrician Ripley

Ripley is one of the largest urban growth areas in Queensland, with Ecco Ripley, the Ripley Town Centre and a string of new estates in the Ripley Valley. Almost everything we do here is new-build follow up: EV charger installs, additional power points, security and outdoor lighting, data cabling and split systems in rooms the builder did not cover.

Electrician Redbank

Redbank is an older railway and workshops town with 1950s to 1970s homes around Redbank Plaza and the station. Original wiring and fuse boards are common, so rewires and switchboard upgrades lead the list, and low lying homes near the river often ask us to raise switchboards and power points above flood height.

Electrician Redbank Plains

Redbank Plains grew from a small settlement to more than 24,000 residents and now mixes 1990s homes around Town Square with brand new estates on its southern edge. We split our time between switchboard and aircon replacements in the older homes and add-on circuits, EV chargers and split systems in the new ones.

Electrician Collingwood Park

Collingwood Park was developed through the 1990s and 2000s and has continued to expand with newer stages such as Woodlinks Village. Homes from the first stages are now due their first switchboard review and second air conditioner, while the newer streets bring the usual new-home add-ons.

Electrician Goodna

Goodna is a historic town on the Brisbane River with older Queenslanders, post-war homes and unit blocks around the station and St Ives shopping centre. Flood recovery has shaped much of the recent electrical work: relocated switchboards, recertified circuits and rebuilt kitchens and laundries, alongside rental compliance for the many investment properties.

We also cover Bundamba, Riverview, Springfield and Greenbank from the same crews.

Emergency electrician in Ipswich

We run a 24 hour emergency electrician service that includes Ipswich. Our business hours average across Logan is about 45 minutes from Woodridge; for Goodna and Redbank Plains allow roughly the same, and for central Ipswich, Yamanto and Ripley allow up to an hour depending on motorway traffic. After hours we aim for under 90 minutes and will give you a realistic arrival time when you call 07 4428 2766.

Call for lost power, a safety switch that will not reset, burning smells at the switchboard, hot or scorched power points, storm and water damage or a failed hot water circuit. Our guide to finding an electrical fault explains what is safe to check first, and after hours rates are on the after hours pricing page. More on the 24 hour electrician page.

Air conditioning installation in Ipswich

We install Haier, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Daikin systems, with Mitsubishi Electric on request, under our own ARCtick licence L181564, so the same team handles the refrigerant work and the electrical circuit. Ipswich summers run hotter than the coast, so sizing matters: we will usually recommend a 5.0 kW or 7.1 kW unit for a west facing living room rather than the smallest unit that fits the budget. Pricing starts from $1,814.51 supplied and installed for a 2.5 kW split and $2,814.50 for 7.1 kW, as listed on the air conditioning pricing page, with multi head splits quoted after a site visit.

Older Booval and Silkstone homes sometimes need a new circuit or a switchboard upgrade before a split can be installed, and we quote that upfront rather than on the day. An aircon service and clean, $341 for one unit, is worth doing on any unit more than a few years old, and our repair cost guide explains when a repair is worthwhile.

Questions we get asked in Ipswich

Do you really cover Ipswich from Woodridge?

Yes. Ipswich Central is about 35 minutes from our depot via the Logan and Ipswich motorways, and Goodna and Redbank Plains are closer to 25. We schedule Ipswich jobs in runs so travel does not affect your price, and we quote fixed prices for scheduled work regardless of suburb.

How much does it cost to rewire an old Queenslander in Booval or Silkstone?

A full rewire of a three bedroom Queenslander typically runs into the thousands and depends on access under the floor and in the roof, the number of circuits and whether the switchboard is included. Our house rewire cost guide sets out the ranges, and we can often stage the work so the highest risk circuits are replaced first.

My Goodna home flooded. What electrical work is needed before we move back in?

Every circuit that went under water needs to be isolated, tested and either recertified or replaced, and switchboards, power points and hot water elements that were submerged are normally replaced. We recommend relocating the switchboard and low power points above the recorded flood level while the walls are open, and we provide the certificates your insurer needs.

Can you add air conditioning to a new Ripley home that only has a unit in the living room?

Yes, this is one of our most common Ripley jobs. Most builders fit a single living area split. We add bedroom units from $1,814.51 each supplied and installed, or a multi head system quoted after a site visit where outdoor unit positions are limited, and we check the switchboard has capacity for the extra circuits.

Do you do commercial electrical work in Ipswich?

We do. Our commercial team handles shop and office fit outs, exit and emergency lighting, annual RCD testing from $185 per switchboard, test and tag from $4.50 per item and LED retrofits across Ipswich, Booval, Redbank Plains and Yamanto, including retail and medical tenancies.
