Doug quoted to install two new power points as well as a free-standing electric induction cooker in my home. It was quite a big job, far bigger than I'd anticipated before I bought the stove. Doug's quote was very competitive and his approach was clear and professional. He worked incredibly hard to get the job done in the quoted timeframe and made sure I understood the process. I was extremely happy with the work done and will definitely be going back to Doug for future electrical work.

Had to get a new oven installed in our rental property. Melville Electrics had to cut a larger slot and discovered and informed that the previous wiring was not up to standard - which gave us peace of mind for us and our tentants. Also advised that we should move the gas lines as OH&S issues were likely with the slighter larger sized oven being installed. Great service but also a strong view on safety. Great to have the peace of mind that the job was done right and completed on time.

Installed Exhaust fan in bathroom.
Rectified Art Deco power points which had been messed up by original electrician.
It was a fiddly job fixing up the power points which took extra time. Doug patiently completed the work to finally complete my bathroom renovation.

Approximate cost: $490

We have used Melville Electrical services on a number of occasions for the installation of new lights, isolating power from old heaters, dimmers etc. Doug is very professional and safety focused. I recommend using them. The approximate cost was for our last work package - remove two pendant lights, replace with new ones, install two dimmer switches which included provision of the dimmers.

Approximate cost: $423

Doug did all the electrical work for our renovation - kitchen, living area, laundry and bathroom. He dealt with all changes to the plans without any fuss, worked incredibly hard (including on weekends and public holidays), took great care of our house and was always polite and helpful. We would recommend him without hesitation.

I've had Doug 3 times now. He's done electrical work for renovations, electricity to new water tanks and come in to repair a faulty ceiling fan and an exhaust fan. He is punctual, efficient, pleasant, trustworthy and lower in price than some other electricians I have had. For my exhaust fan, he brought a spare one which saved me time and extra cost for him coming back a second time.

Doug phoned promptly after my first contact via this page. He even phoned after the chaos of returning from holidays when we were to catch up. He clearly keeps an organised diary which is obvious! Doug arrived right on time to remove 4 existing light fittings with 4 new Victorian pendant fittings. I did not realise it would necessitate Doug needing to crawl around in the ceiling over the hallway and two rooms. Considering there were books/papers and the usual tax chaos everywhere, Doug deserves a gold star to have worked so efficiently with multiple obstacles! His experiences shows, I have already recommended him to several friends and I am delighted to have him return in the near future to install other new lighting and a trip switch.

Doug re-wired & re-configured electrical works in our office. He attended with a short lead time & was able to meet all of our requests, including any changes that came about as works progressed. He was very professional & his work was of a very high standard. His price was extremely competitive. We would have no hesitation in engaging his services again and recommending him to others.

Doug was able to fit me in at very short notice to install and replace five pendant lights in preparation for a party the following weekend. Doug remained good natured throughout even though the nature of the lights meant that the job was time consuming. He also took the time to explain other work we should consider having done at a future point in time and was happy to provide a detailed quotation for that work.

Douglas removed under cupboard lights in my kitchen and installed LED lighting in this area. He also reworked the electrics to accommodated a much larger wall oven. The work was completed promptly and with safety a top priority. I would not hesitate to use Doug again, nor I would I hesitate in recommending him to others.
