Blackrock Beauty

The Backstory: These homeowners decided to do this stunning renovation and extension in order to add a sense of nuance and luxury to their already vibrant, impressive home. This project would require the utmost care, especially in regards to lighting design, which are a key component to achieve their dream.

The Task: This project called for a complete lighting installation, including LED lighting throughout the home, with a focus on illuminating the natural limestone walls to enhance their natural beauty.

Heated towel rails were installed in the main bathroom and en suite, along with recessed ironing stations installed into the laundry and walk-in wardrobe. These luxury additions added detail and a sense of warmth and accessibility to the space.

Outside, upgrades including a new ceiling fan, LED downlights and an electric heat bank were installed to the deck area to enhance the mood in this perfect entertaining space.

Clipsal slimline power points and light switches were chosen to keep the sleek feel of the house running through to the electrical installation. USB Power points were fitted above the desk in the study to ensure adequate charging of tablets and mobile phones

Audio-visual and data distribution equipment were concealed in a cupboard for the best visual experience.
This project was all about subtleties, so we took extreme care to attend to the specifications and preferences of the client, both in terms of both functionality and design.

The Approach: Given the amount of space there was to work with, one of our challenges was to create consistent lighting throughout while still maintaining a homey, inviting feel. We begin with a complete rewire to ensure the home would function exactly as intended, and then began adding details room by room. From lighting to audio elements, to convenience additions like the USB power points, every element was meant to add a sense of ease, comfort, and enjoyment in the home.

Absolutely first class service from Byrd Electrical!

Ben and all the team went above and beyond what we expected and took the time to make sure everything was done to the highest standard.

In what felt like the blink of an eye, our job was quoted and the guys were onsite completing our works. Nothing was too much for them. Even when the misses changed her mind about the plans… Boyd, Mark and Rhys got the job done.

It’s great to come across a business that provides this level of service and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Byrd Electrical!
Professional and prompt with work completed in a timely fashion.
Great work, no mess, no fuss. Lots of new cameras
Excellent, friendly service from the Byrd Electrical team. Boyd explained everything clearly when quoting and was happy to answer all my questions. Ben the owner even came back after the job was completed to check everything was working properly, and while he was there found a way to get better performance out of the newly installed exhaust fans and carried out the extra work at no additional cost. Great to deal with - highly recommended!
I had a tricky power outage which seemed to be a mystery. I contacted Byrd Electrical and Mark and Lionel arrived promptly, got straight to work and diagnosed the problem incredibly quickly. What could have been a drawn out and stressful ordeal was resolved in a remarkably short time. Not only did they fix the issue but they took the time to explain. They were professional, kind and clearly knew their stuff. They had a ‘can do’ attitude. I would not hesitate to recommend Mark and Lionel to anyone needing electrical work. They were a pleasure to deal with.
From my initial enquiry, to quote, to setting a date and installation itself the communication was excellent from all the team involved. When the first heating element proved not suitable for me, Mark immediately tried to find me an alternative solution so they could complete the job same day. He spent time looking for ideas that would work in my bathroom space and came up with what is now perfect solution as I have heat and light without needing to turn on the exhaust fan every time. Mark and Lionel worked efficiently to install ceiling heater lights and I would never know it wasn’t part of the original bathrooms. They were easy to chat with and they also clean up afterwards 😊. Highly recommend.
The guys were great - cleaned up everything and all was good! And they're back today, doing more work to keep me warm. Rapt.
Just outstanding. From the initial quote to the repair, Byrd Electrical were flawless. Friendly, courteous and very efficient, every aspect of the company is customer orientated. A wholehearted recommendation from me and I will not hesitate to contact Byrd again if we require more work.
Fantastic communication throughout, prompt and thorough. Everything was explained well and certificates supplied for the completed work.
I had nearly a full day of work with 2 electricians on site. Both were courteous, clean and friendly.
