I used to live across the road from these guys. I knew them well enough to wave hello and that was about it. When we moved into a rental house in Indooroopilly we started to have problems with our circuit breaker constantly getting tripped. Our landlord kept calling out his electrician (whose name eludes me) and after three attempts at fixing the problem (every time he came out we were assured the problem was fixed) it was still not fixed. In the end he asked if we knew of an electrician and the Purvis name came to mind.

They came out the next day, and we finally introduced each other (after waving to them for years, we didn't even know each others names). They actually did something the other electrician hadn't done - actually have a look around the place. In no time at all they discovered that a rat had been chewing at one of the wires under the house (the other electrician had thought it was maybe a light fitting, or the fuses, or something) and had the problem fixed.

I'm glad we called them - they gave us great service and actually wanted to fix the problem on their first visit!
