Project Overview: Enhancing Safety and Style in Ormond

Fleur and Richard needed an electrical upgrade at their Ormond home, including replacing LED strip lights in their bathroom, decommissioning a faulty lamp post causing safety switch trips, and installing LED garden lighting for safety. As a leading Ormond electrician, Byrd Electrical, led by Ben Weston and Mark, delivered a seamless and aesthetically pleasing solution. This project showcases our expertise in residential lighting and safety, making us the trusted Melbourne electrician residents rely on.

Project Details: Expert LED Lighting and Decommissioning

The bathroom’s LED strip lights required replacement, and a faulty lamp post in the front yard was tripping the safety switch, posing a hazard. Additionally, the clients wanted LED garden lighting to illuminate their front yard and pathway. Our electrician near me team at Byrd Electrical completed the following steps:

  • LED Strip Light Replacement: Removed the old bathroom LED strip lights and supplied and installed new, high-quality LED strips, ensuring bright and even illumination.
  • Control Gear Concealment: Neatly concealed the LED control gear in the ceiling space, maintaining a clean and polished bathroom aesthetic.
  • Drop Sheets for Protection: Used drop sheets over the vanity to protect surfaces and keep the bathroom clean during the installation.
  • Lamp Post Decommissioning: Safely decommissioned the faulty lamp post, isolating and removing the wiring to eliminate safety switch tripping and ensure compliance.
  • LED Garden Lighting Installation: Supplied and installed LED garden lighting through the front yard and along the pathway, using low-voltage, weatherproof fixtures to enhance safety and visibility.
  • Cabling and Connections: Ran cabling for the garden lighting through conduit where necessary, ensuring durability and a tidy appearance.
  • Thorough Testing: Tested the LED strip lights, garden lighting, and safety switch to confirm reliable operation and no further tripping issues.
  • Certificate of Electrical Safety: Issued a Certificate of Electrical Safety, registered with Energy Safe Victoria, to verify compliance with Victorian regulations.

The work was scheduled at Fleur and Richard’s convenience, delivering a safe, stylish, and functional lighting upgrade with minimal disruption.

I highly recommend Byrd Electrical for any electrical needs. They are professional in their correspondence from quote stage and their workmanship is excellent. We had the pleasure of having Leon, Lionel and Patrick attend our property and I cannot fault them. It is refreshing to deal with such a professional company. Will definitely use them in the future.
I used Byrd Electrical for a residential job in Sandringham, VIC in December, just before Christmas, and the experience went well beyond my expectations.

I found them through Google “find nearby” after contacting four other electricians for quotes. Byrd Electrical were the only ones who could attend promptly, provide a detailed quote, and actually fit the job in before Christmas. They attended three days after first contact and provided a clear, itemised quote with options, which made it easy to understand exactly what was involved and choose the best approach.

During the quote visit, they also inspected the switchboard and identified that several circuit breakers were not up to current standard. This was clearly explained to me, including the technical differences between the existing breakers and modern RCBO protection, and why this mattered from a safety and compliance perspective. As we have a small child, electrical safety is a priority for me, and this discussion highlighted a genuine risk that needed to be addressed.

The quoted work included installing double external power points in different outdoor locations, as well as extending power, ethernet, and TV coax into a recessed media box for wall mounting an 80-inch TV. Two days after the quote, they attended to carry out the work, turning up exactly when they said they would and again discussing the quoted options before commencing. They also accommodated my request to ensure the recessed media box allowed space for a small NUC PC, which was handled without issue.

During the job, following a detailed technical explanation and a discussion of the safety risks given we have a young child, I verbally approved additional work to address the switchboard issues. The switchboard was upgraded to current standards using modern RCBOs, ensuring appropriate protection across the relevant circuits. This was carried out transparently and professionally, and knowing the switchboard had been properly brought up to date was very reassuring.

They also went beyond the original scope in other areas. Instead of simply relocating the existing ethernet and coax connections, they split them, ensuring I retained access to the original points as well as the new media location.

Throughout the job, Ben, the electrician on site, was professional, tidy, and respectful of our home. Work areas were kept clean, explanations were clear, and the finished result looks well planned and neatly executed. Nothing felt rushed or improvised.

As a final bonus, the total cost came in slightly under the quoted amount, which was a pleasant surprise given the additional work that was done.

Overall, the combination of clear communication, detailed quoting, strong technical knowledge, attention to safety, on-time attendance, and the ability to deliver just before Christmas really set Byrd Electrical apart.

Ben did a fantastic job, and I wouldn’t hesitate to use Byrd Electrical again or recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable electrician.
Really satisfied with Byrd Electrical. Had to reroute an underground power cable and Mark was on time, communicated very well and took the time to answer all my questions and explained everything very thoroughly. Price wise I found everything to be very reasonable. 5/5 would highly recommend.
Exceptional service and communication. Highly recommend
Exceptional workmanship and a massive safety upgrade!

I hired Byrd Electrical to install a dedicated circuit for a new 25kW pool heat pump, and they ended up doing a much-needed safety overhaul on my switchboard as well. With their 10+ years in business and combined 40 years of experience, it really shows in the quality of the work.

Leon and the team were fantastic. For the heat pump, they ran a dedicated 32A circuit with heavy-duty conduit. We discussed the layout beforehand, and they surface-mounted it very discreetly with neat bends—it looks incredibly professional.
More importantly, they identified a critical safety issue in my existing board where an old RCD was failing to trip (we’d had recent shocks). They retrofitted the board with new RCBOs for all circuits and added a surge protector. I now have a Certificate of Electrical Safety and total peace of mind knowing the family is safe.

They managed to squeeze us in before Christmas, which I really appreciated. If you need complex work done right, I highly recommend Byrd Electrical
Fantastic service from Leon and the team at Byrd. Always prompt, always polite and always deliver great work. Won’t go elsewhere for our electrical needs.
Excellent customer service and on time. Thank you Ben for the great effort and extra help in fixing issue at hand. Highly recommended for any electrical needs!
I highly recommend Byrd Electrical. They were very prompt and clear with the quoting which included a video explaining options and the steps required to complete the work. They arrived on time, were efficient and cleaned thoroughly. I asked them to fix my internet woes which was done with cabling and wireless access points. They also installed new electrical powerpoints and a fan. During the fan installation while on the roof, they noticed a cracked tile and patched it with sealant. That was so kind and made my day.
Very efficient, excellent work and extremely friendly service. Highly recommend
