Electrician Stretton, Parkinson and Calamvale

Yes, we service Stretton, Parkinson, Calamvale, Algester, Drewvale, Kuraby and Sunnybank Hills, plus Runcorn and Eight Mile Plains, on Brisbane’s southside. Stretton and Drewvale are about 10 minutes from our Woodridge depot, and Parkinson, Calamvale, Kuraby and Sunnybank Hills about 15 minutes in normal traffic. We have a crew somewhere in this pocket most weekdays, so scheduled work is usually booked within days.

Faze Electrical and Airconditioning holds a Queensland electrical contractor licence (90552) and an ARCtick licence (L181564), which is why so much of our work in these suburbs is whole home split system air conditioning: one crew handles the refrigerant, the unit placement and the circuits. 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 Stretton and Parkinson

Stretton has the highest owner occupation rate of any suburb we work in, with large homes on prestige lots beside Karawatha Forest, and Parkinson and Drewvale are mid 1990s to 2000s family suburbs with household incomes well above the state average. Those homes ask for the premium list: whole home split system air conditioning with app control, three phase upgrades, EV chargers, home automation, security camera wiring and garden and pool lighting.

Calamvale was mostly open land until the mid 1980s and then filled with 2000s townhouse complexes and family homes off Beaudesert Road, while Algester dates from the late 1970s and Sunnybank Hills from the 1970s through the 1990s. Those older homes need switchboard upgrades, safety switches, LED downlight conversions and interconnected smoke alarms before the 2027 deadline. The Calamvale townhouse complexes bring body corporate lighting and compliance work.

Kuraby is largely 1980s and 1990s brick around the train station with older post-war pockets near Beenleigh Road, so switchboard upgrades and air conditioner replacements lead the list there. Across the area we also do solar wiring and home battery installs on the large roofs these homes tend to have. Pool and spa circuits come up constantly in Stretton and Parkinson too; each needs its own RCD protected circuit and an isolator within sight of the pump, which we include in the quote.

Questions we get asked in Stretton and Parkinson

What does whole home air conditioning cost for a Stretton home?

We do not install ducted systems. For a whole home we install two to four split systems, from $1,814.51 for a 2.5 kW bedroom unit and $2,814.50 for a 7.1 kW living area unit, or a multi head system quoted after a site visit. We quote after a free in-home assessment because wall positions, outdoor unit placement and switchboard capacity all change the design. Existing ducted systems are serviced and cleaned for $599.50.

Do you install three phase power for large homes in Parkinson?

Yes. Three phase suits large ducted systems, 22 kW EV chargers and big pool or workshop loads. We handle the Energex paperwork, the new mains and the switchboard, and quote after checking the existing supply.

Do I need new smoke alarms in my Sunnybank Hills home before 2027?

If you own and occupy a home built before the current rules, yes. From 2027 all Queensland homes need interconnected photoelectric smoke alarms, and we install hardwired alarms at $181.50 each ($726 for a four alarm home) with the certificate.

Can you do body corporate work in Calamvale townhouse complexes?

Yes. Common area lighting, exit and emergency light testing, switchboard maintenance, smoke alarm compliance in individual units and safety inspections, with written reports after each visit.

How much does an EV charger cost in Drewvale?

A single phase 7.4 kW install where you supply the charger starts from $1,650 for the wiring, a Tesla Wall Connector single phase install with the charger from $1,950, and a three phase install from $2,650 where three phase is already on site.
