Respect Electric Services

I got Darren to do my testing and tagging. I found him to be very punctual and no nonsense and the price was right. I would highly recommend him to other people. He also offered me advice at no extra cost for future work that I am planning.

Approximate cost: $204.00

It was so great to work with a tradie who obviously loves his job. Pleasant, punctual and proud of his work, Darren wouldn't frown over tricky jobs, instead he was so “can do” his eyes would glisten with the challenge and say; “everything's possible” and immediately start to problem solve. It was refreshing to have someone so enthusiastic about his work.

Very good at listening to your requests and committed to going the extra mile until you are 100% happy, so rare these days and a reflection of both a good electrician and a solid person.

Very competitively priced.
Would definitely recommend.

We are so glad we found Darren with the number of hiccups we experienced with our kitchen renovations! Going way beyond initial work/quote, we appreciate all the time spent helping us resolve all the things which went wrong, making recommendations as well as recommending other trades who exhibit the same commitment to customer service. Thanks again Darren.

I love businesses that disrupt an industry by providing better service, better quality & better value than any business in the market.

Darren sets out to do just that, and sets a standard that is hard to beat.

I had a couple of tricky electrical issues. Even before we met or he had the job, Darren was extremely helpful in suggesting ways in which they could be solved.

With the job, Darren was the most competitive in terms of price, whilst ticking all the boxes (audit / required certificates).

He arrived on time, delivered the job in record time, plus he helped me out by replacing a few dodgy switches and gave me advice on another job, and how I could solve it.

Darren is now my go-to person for all things electrical, and I will be recommending him to my friends.

I required some urgent jobs to be completed including the relocation of ceiling lights, and the replacement, installation and inspection of new fuse box. Darren was extremely professional, prompt, and provided a standard of service that I have not previously experienced from any tradesman. I would recommend him to anyone seeking electrical work.

Darren was recommended by a good friend of mine and came round at very short notice to check out some electrical faults in a house I have just bought. I was worried that there was a serious wiring problem. However, he quickly ascertained that the issue was minor and fixed the electrics in both my bedrooms. He also fixed an exterior light and told me what I needed to do to set up my washing machine! He was very helpful, efficient, clearly knew what he was doing and offered superb value. I will be using Darren for all future electrical work and I thoroughly recommend him.

Recently when we moved out of our previous place in Fawkner we had to do some electrical work that we were putting off for a quite a while. Darren arrive promptly on time, gave a very professional estimate and a perfect quote, and finally did an excellent job.

While completing the work we have asked for he also noticed the incorrectly installed TV point and the exhaust fan and fixed them at no cost.

Thank you very much Darren! You are an example to others. Really appreciate it.

Respect Electrical were prompt and professional, I would not hesitate to recommend their services in the future and will certainly be using them again when the need arises.

Womo has never let me down before when looking for a particular business or service. Darren from Respect Electrical Services has been no exception. He put in new TV, Foxtel and electricity points upstairs and his work was excellent quality and reasonably priced. He makes an effort to not rush the job to make sure it is done properly, but the agreed price doesn't suddenly hike just because he stays longer.

He is super friendly, reliable and cares very much about finding the best solution for your needs. He also gave advice on a few handyman things around the home.

I think all home owners like to have 'that guy' in a tradie - who is available, dependable, reasonably priced and friendly. Darren is all of those.... he is now 'our guy' who we will call on for all things electrical in our home. Very happy that we found him and would enthusiastically recommend him to others.

Outstanding! Darren did a highly professional job and went well beyond what he was required to do. He arrived when he said he would, offered excellent advice, and came up with innovative ideas for a couple problems we had with our lighting. We cannot recommend Darren highly enough, and will only use Respect from now on.

We contacted Darren when it became apparent we required some last minute electrical work to be completed during our bathroom renovations. We called him on a Saturday, the quote was provided the same day and he was able to come out and complete the work within a couple of days. We found Darren to not only be reliable, but friendly, knowledgeable, honest and reasonably priced. Darren installed 6 LED lights and an exhaust fan and was even nice enough to change over two of our existing exhaust fans for us for no extra charge. Darren took the time to ensure he worked with us to ensure the best layout of the LED lights for the space and we were thrilled with the outcome!. We would definitely recommend Darren to others and will be contacting Darren in the future for any electrical work.

Recently we had to install some security lighting to our place. Darren was simply great. Arrived on time, recommended the best solution, explained all the details, did a fine job and more importantly cleaned everything up once he finished.

Also while working he gave great advice about any other things he noticed at our new home that can be improved and even fixed a not correctly installed exhaust fan without even me asking at no additional cost.

In short his customer service and skills were exemplary. Thanks Darren - I wouldn't hesitate to get your help again or to recommend to my friends.

I had upgraded to digital antenna. Darren was great, helpful professional and great service. Call me when he was about to arrive. I strongly recommend him to all.

Engaged Darren to fix a broken light & a hotplate a while ago. Not only that he explained in detail about what was wrong with the wiring, Darren was very professional, honest & friendly!
Hard to find a reliable sparky around Melbourne these days! I highly recommend his work and will definitely hire their services again!

Approximate cost: $285

I called with a very vague and non-technical description of some lighting work that we needed doing. After an impressive job of translating my requirements Darren came out promptly and did a fantastic job at an extremely competitive rate. I felt I got good advice on lighting choices rather than a sales pitch and am very happy with the job. Highly recommended!

friendly bloke who got the job done properly and promptly

TV and Bluray installed on a double brick wall so that no cords or wiring could be seen. All other electricians said it was too difficult a job. Darren never says, "No' to a challenge. He's done a great job and all of my friends want his details.

Approximate cost: $450

Very professional, gave good advice, very friendly, quick response, keeps you well informed of the job, great value and does a very neat and tidy job. Darren takes a lot of pride in his work and you know that you are in good hands when he does the job for you.

Darren had to move the TV antenna cable and power points to the opposite wall of my apartment. He also helped to move my phone cable as well as added additional power points in the kitchen. It was quite a tedious job and took quite a bit of time but Darren was professional throughout and made sure that he got the job done and done well. That was really impressive and I will definitely recommend him!

Prompt, friendly, easy payment facility, quick response to initial enquiry - came out within a few hours.
Checked all electrical applications as tripping of safety switch. Replaced safety switch and checked all wiring
Identified a potential hazard in meter box and corrected free of charge. Highly recommend.....

Approximate cost: $150.00

Darren was a great guy, charged me less than quoted. In and out in a heart beat. Hard to find tradies like that these days! Honest and down to earth!!

Approximate cost: $150

Needed a light fitting replaced, but ended up finding out that the problem was much more serious: the wiring itself was burnt due to an electrical fire! Despite this, Darren didn't charge any extra for the unexpected hurdle, and got the job done efficiently. Super friendly, fair and definitely concerned about customer service. Would definitely recommend!

Approximate cost: $80

Rang Darren for a quote to remove a old cable/power point that was no longer required after taking a fake wall down. After my initial phone call Darren was at my door within an hour and job was completed very soon after. Nice guy, friendly, professional, fair pricing, explained everything as he went along. Will be using Respect Electric Services again and will be recommending to friends.

I had my tv antenna repaired and all 3 wall ports fixed too, Darren worked really hard and his price was really fair. He showed me what was wrong, explained what he was going to do and made sure I knew what to do before he started the work. Great worker and made sure everything was fixed and completed before leaving. Thanks Darren!

Darren has done a wonderful job on our kitchen renovation. We also required a Cabinet Maker and Tiler to which Darren was able to recommend. Darren suggested we place some power points behind the deeper drawers for some of our kitchen appliances creating more bench space. The cabinet maker was happy to cut out the back of the drawers for us. I highly recommended Darren as a Tradesman. Thanks again Marie and John

Was looking for an installation of an additional tv antenna point in a complicated set up. not only didDarren respond promptly to my enquiry, he communicated clearly and promptly to let me know when he was going to attend. but the highlight for me was his integrity. After a thorough assessment of the job he advised that while he could do it, it would be cheaper and quicker for me to get a specialist in due to the complications of the job. That kind of honesty is rare and I'm sorry that I didn't persist with using him as I'm still waiting for the 'specialist' to arrive! Highly recommend this company.

Fit 2 ceiling hung pendant lights.
Darren arrived at the time he said he would.
He had the right equipment to do the job efficiently.
Very happy.

Approximate cost: $75

Fantastic service, always turned up on-time and was responsive to program changes.

Always communicates any issues, suggestions, innovative ways of achieving a look, and ensures work is future-proofed for any plans to extend.

Would highly recommend for any work. I just wish all trades were this reliable.

I hope that giving five stars across the board isn't over the top, however, giving any less would be an injustice!
Darren provides a service the old fashioned way; arrives on time, wormanship above the required standard and if there is any issue he calls and discusses them with you. Darren went above and beyond what I expected.

Respect Electric Services did a great job setting up our new Cat 6 office network for 50 workstations. Darren kept me constantly updated with the progress of the job from start to finish, very pleased with the service. I required additional tradespeople to which Darren was able to put me in contact with.

Darren helped us re-wire our warehouse conversion. He also added in some new light switches and power points. Most importantly he installed our new hot water system!! Very efficient and friendly. Highly recommend him!
