I recently called Pascoes to investigate an RCD tripping when it rained. They sent around a guy who told me that it would cost me $4000 for them to investigate. $1800 to check all the wiring and $2200 to replace some circuit breakers with RCDS because since January 2019 it was now illegal for them to do any work if the RCDs needed adding to the circuit board. I already have 3 RCDs on the board and according to the Safety Law I only have to do anything if I'm selling the house. The RCDs themselves cost $30 from Bunnings so I presume Pascoes charge you $700 for replacing each one. The job itself takes 30 minutes for each RCD I've been told. When I queried the fact that it was very expensive he told me that it was my safety at stake. I've managed to find the cause of the problem now. I also wonder about the positive reviews here as my experience mirrors the negatives one. I'm a pensioner so I expect they probably thought I would agree to the quote and not argue. I feel that any company that over quotes to this extent and uses scare tactics to get the business are fraudulent.
