Tapp Electrical

Very impressed with their efficient and professional service. They were able to come out at short notice to disconnect some lights and make safe so my painters could continue working.

An accidental large hole in my ceiling wasn’t the issue. It was ringing for the next month to get it fixed. Trades to fix it not turning up when they said they would. Being told it may bubble but still paying a full bill (apparently reduced). It was fixed in the end and the other work was done ok.

Tradesmen turned up on time, and were courteous and professional. Work was completed in a reasonable time frame and to a high standard. Work area was left neater than when they arrived! Thanks guys!!

REMINDER: ALWAYS GET A SECOND QUOTEMy wife and I decided upon Tapp as our go-to electrical team shortly after moving into our house 5 years ago. We originally had some pendant lights installed at a reasonable cost (after multiple quotes). After gaining our trust, we had Tapp upgrade our battens to downlights, and install security sensors, fans, outdoor lighting, bathroom heatlamps, and AV cabling - a whole range of services over multiple visits, which have left us very happy. Tapp was out as recently as 6 weeks ago to install another downlight.Having recently signed up to upgrade our NBN to FTTP (Fibre to the Premises), we learned that conduit would need to be installed independently before the NBN cabler could complete his work. This is a simple 2~3 meter run from our NBN junction box to an outside-facing wall in the walk-in robe. Although not a tradesperson myself, I have enough practical knowledge to understand the rough scope of works (3~4 sheets of roofing to be lifted, conduit placed, silicon or fixtures to secure in place as required). Maybe 90 minutes work for someone unskilled such as myself. I requested Tapp quote the works, as I'm too lazy to do the work myself, and have work right through XMAS. My mental cut-off point was $150... maybe a little bit more if I was feeling particularly lazy.To summarise: a short run of plastic tubing inside the roof, so the NBN man can do his work, with a string running through.$935.84..... Nearly a thousand dollars.Non-emergency, to be completed after the second week of January 2023.For reference, we paid $215 to install an additional downlight on an existing circuit in November 2022 - one month earlier. Actual electrical work, with a certificate of compliance.This is your reminder, folks. Get that second quote. I hope there aren't people out there scammed into paying such ridiculous amounts. I find legitimate pity and concern for those who don't know better. There is always a reasonable threshold for a business to add its margin - I believe most consumers accept this in any transaction they enter. Based on my previous jobs through Tapp, I would guess no less than a 400% mark-up here. It is dishonest and lousy.

The Tapp Electrical electricians were on time, very pleasant, worked fast, did a great quality job and cleaned up after themselves. Highly recommend Tapp Electrical after my experience and will use them again without hesitation.

These people are nothing but cheats that they have no work ethics. They sent an apprentice to do a 4 hours job in 2 days. and then they charge me a licenced electriciane's rate ($95 per hour)

Tapp Electrical assisted us with replacement and installation of new LED downlights and fittings at our home, and the outcome exceeded our expectations. Simon provided us with a great value quote which was provided in a clear and simple quotation form. Connor and apprentice Jack then completed the works which took 1.5 days to complete. Each day Connor and/or Jack arrived promptly and we received a text message when they were on their way to our property, which was greatly appreciated. The quality job Connor and Jack undertook was fantastic. They supplied and installed the quality fittings and cleaned after the job was complete. We greatly appreciate the work completed.

My alarm was playing up, and I needed help fast. When I phoned Tapp Electrical, Nicole was so understanding and helpful and managed to locate an electrician who was available that day! The electrician, Simon, was great, he narrowed down the problems quickly, including sourcing and retrieving a non-standard alarm battery. I highly recommend these guys, and fully intend to use them again. Even their fees are very reasonable! Really happy with their service.

I had them replace a few light switches and install a new fuse box. I end up with many defects and unfinished outstanding work. The work was carried out by apprentices or very low-grade electricians at best, they created more problems tan they solved, which caused many cancelations by builders and painters to fix the problem, but Tapp Electrical has charged a top-quality professional rate. The work carried out by Tapp Electrical on my property seems more like the work of a bunch of cowboy apprentices rather than fully qualified electricians.

We had Jason who was such an amazing electrician! 5 stars! Will use again!
