What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

The electrician behind SMG Electrical Services, Shane, is the figure who anchors virtually every account, and the quality of the finished result is the theme running through them. Rewiring homes to current Australian standards, replacing old light fittings and power sockets, hanging ceiling fans, and fitting ovens and range hoods all appear among completed jobs, with reviewers agreeing that the standard of work is high and the detail carefully considered. Punctual arrival is another constant: customers note that Shane turns up at the agreed time and works through the task efficiently.

Tidiness receives similar weight, with protection put around the area during the job and everything cleared away afterwards. Advice and consultation are frequently praised, including suggestions on better ways to set things up and explanations of the choices available before work begins, supported by timely quotes and ongoing updates. Several describe him as honest, knowledgeable and easy to deal with, and some long-standing clients have used his services for about twenty years. Putting right a fault left by a previous tradesperson is also mentioned, and the consideration given to how an installation will serve the household in years ahead stands out across the feedback.

The service was punctual, professional, knowledgeable and cat friendly. Shane provided a price upfront and there were no surprises for the replacement of our existing lights with new LEDs and a great pendant light.. We could not be happier with the service that was provided and left our home looking like a showroom. Good old fashioned, excellent customer service!

Shane is an excellent and experienced electrician. His work is to a very high standard. We have used him for around 20 years and always found him reliable and professional.

I Can’t thank Shane enough for soughting out an electrical problem caused by another electrician. Shane arrived when he said he would, did an outstanding job, was a super nice guy and tidied up afterwards. If u want someone reliable, professional and does the job right the first time, then you have called the right person. I will be using Shane for all future electrical jobs.

Shane provided top notch service, from beginning to completion. The arrival time was as promised, and, the job carried out efficiently with care given to protect areas around the job. Even had time to say hello to my crazy 2 puppies. I'd recommend SMG to anyone who wants electrical work done.
