Great service. Friendly and efficient.
The electrician, Ben, was on time, pleasant and professional. He performed job efficiently and per quote. No hesitation in recommending him to others.
I needed ceiling fans installed with a tight turnaround in time for Christmas. Byrd Electrical contacted me through hipages, but unlike the others they wouldn’t quote before actually doing a site visit (which they organised within a couple of days). Boyd and Pat were incredibly professional & friendly and provided solid advice that ended up saving me $$, managed to fit in my job at the 11th hour before Christmas Eve (thank you to super-patient Tara), and they still came in cheaper than the other providers who had quoted me sight unseen. I couldn’t be happier with their service and will most definitely go back to them for future electrical needs!
Great experience right from the quote ( much better than others) to the completion of the installation of my 2 ceiling fans. Highly recommend:-)
Amazing service. Squeezed me in before Christmas (Xmas eve) and did a great job. Mark was professional and great at his jobThanks

Byrd are super professional, from the first phone call to making the appointment, the reminders and getting the job done. Leon was friendly and helpful in discussing options and was able to do the job on the spot which was super helpful. I was given a job window when I booked and the day before this was narrowed down to a more specific time and then received a message half an hour before arrival which was excellent. Would definitely use them again!

I have previously had great service from Ben at Byrd Electrical. I needed another small job done today and my phone call was answered without any delay. Ben arrived 15 minutes after my phone call and completed the job. How amazing is that! It was a small job but Ben was happy to do it. This company excels at customer service and professional work standards. I highly recommend them.

I am very impressed with the services of Ben from Byrd Electrical. I needed my new TV flush mounted to the wall and also a dimmer switch for the living area and a new hard wired smoke detector. I was amazed to have a quick response from the company and a booking was made within two days of my request. Ben turned up on time and made sure the TV was at the exact height we wanted. He is a careful and efficient worker and there was no mess. He is very professional and a nice person. Our TV looks great and we could not be happier. Byrd Electrical is a fantastic business with great communication and very prompt service. Thank you Ben - I can highly recommend your business.

I recently purchased and moved into a new home. I had Leon and Patrick come out to replace my 38 old downlights with new LED lights and install two ceiling fans in the bedrooms. The whole process from start to finish was easy. The initial quote was free (and included a safety check of the switchboard). Leon listened to what I wanted and was not rushed. The electricians turned up when they said they would, finished the job, cleaned up and took away all the mess. They showed me how to remove and replace the lights for painting the ceiling (without snapping my fingers!) I was kept in the loop the entire time. I would not hesitate to recommend Byrd Electrical.
