Whole apartment dark or a switchboard that's hot to touch? Applecross's towers mean the fault could be yours or the building's — we work out which fast, safely, day or night.

Trusted brands
Applecross is a mix of high-density apartment towers and older houses, and that mix matters when something goes wrong electrically. In a lot of buildings along Canning Highway and the surrounding blocks, the fault genuinely could sit in three different places: your own switchboard, the shared meter bank on your floor, or the building's incoming supply.
Working out which one it is, before anyone touches anything, is the difference between a straightforward unit repair and a conversation that needs to go to the owners corporation. We test methodically rather than assume, because guessing wrong here means either an unnecessary callout charge to the wrong party or a delay while someone else gets involved.
Canning Highway traffic and secure basement car park access after dark are the two practical hurdles for any after-hours callout in this pocket, and we plan around both when you call.

In short
Call Electrician Perth on 0405 422 079. We answer in about 5 minutes and can usually get a licensed electrician to your Applecross apartment or home the same day, often within the hour, and we'll work out whether the fault sits in your unit, the meter bank or the building supply.
Total loss of power to your apartment, a switchboard that's warm or buzzing, a burning smell, or a safety switch that trips the second it's reset — all of these warrant a same-day or after-hours call.
A single faulty appliance or a light that's flickering while everything else runs fine is usually safe to book in for a standard visit rather than treat as an emergency.

When you call, we'll ask whether you're in an apartment or a house, whether there's secure basement or intercom access, and what time of night it is, because getting into a building after the front desk closes is often the real bottleneck, not the drive over.
For apartment buildings we'll also ask if you know whether the building has an owners corporation manager on call, since some faults trace to common-property infrastructure that needs their sign-off to remedy properly.

A licensed electrician does the work to AS/NZS 3000, tests every circuit and leaves your place cleaner than they found it.
In older Applecross apartment blocks, meter banks are sometimes still on shared infrastructure that's had piecemeal additions over the years, and that's a common source of a fault that looks like it's yours but isn't.
In houses and townhouses, we more often find an overloaded circuit from added appliances or a heritage switchboard that's simply reached the end of its safe working life.

"Downlights and dimmers through the whole Kishorn Road apartment. Finish is immaculate, spot on colour temp."
"Old fuse board swapped for a new switchboard with safety switches. Priced up front, no upsell nonsense."

We test your unit's switchboard and circuits in isolation first. If the fault clears once your board is isolated, it's likely upstream — in the meter bank or building supply — which is owners corporation territory rather than yours.
Yes. Tell us when you call whether your building has secure basement parking, an intercom, or after-hours concierge, and we'll plan around it so getting in doesn't add unnecessary delay to a genuine emergency.
No — faults on common property like shared meter banks or the building's main supply are generally an owners corporation matter, not the individual resident's. We'll clearly identify which side of the fault sits where before any work is quoted.
Call 000 immediately. Once safe, call us on 0405 422 079 and we'll send a licensed electrician to isolate the affected circuit and make the property safe.
