Punctual, polite, professional and well priced. The group did an excellent job working through my list of repairs: ceiling fan; smoke detectors; exhaust fan; switch board; and air con unit. I’d happily use Electrx for any future jobs and recommend to friends.

I hired Electrx to install a couple of outdoor lights (with sensors), a motion sensor for an existing car port light, hard-wired doorbell camera, additional GPOs in the kitchen and converted existing recessed ceiling downlights into pendant lights which turned out great! Bill provided a reasonable quote for these works and he and his colleague did the works with care and attention to detail. They also helped me setup the doorbell camera and adjust the light sensors. Izzy was also great to deal with in the lead up to the day of the works. Everyone was responsive and provided details and answers to my questions. Highly recommend and would return again 💫

The work Bill did adding two extra power points and hiding my HDMI cables was so good, he even helped with cable management which is beyond. I also had a EV charger installed which he got done with no problems at all. Thanks so much!!

Very happy with the service from Electrx. The team was professional, friendly, and a pleasure to deal with from start to finish. They took the time to understand my needs and recommended an EV charger that was better suited to my usage rather than simply installing the original option. The installation felt personalised to my home and requirements, and the workmanship was excellent. I really appreciated their honest advice and attention to detail. Highly recommended!

I can't speak highly enough of Bill and the work he did today. Not only did he quickly identify the problem, but he also fixed it efficiently and professionally. He took the time to explain everything, was great to deal with, and offered a very fair price. I was so impressed with his knowledge, honesty, and workmanship that he'll be our electrician from now on. A genuinely nice bloke who really knows his trade. I would highly recommend Bill to anyone looking for a reliable and skilled electrician.

Electrical work in Docklands is a different kind of job

Docklands isn’t the suburbs. It’s dense apartment living, waterfront commercial, and towers built between 2005 and 2015 that are now showing their age electrically.
The electrical work here is mostly body corporate, individual apartment owners dealing with OC processes they weren’t expecting, and fitouts in the commercial base of buildings where common-area access is its own logistical challenge.

Electrx work in Docklands regularly. We understand how apartment buildings work, the approvals, the sub-metering, the switchboard room access and we deal with owners corporations without making that your problem to manage.

Electrical Work we do

  • EV charger installation in apartment carparks, including OC approvals and sub-meter setup
  • Switchboard upgrades for apartments and commercial tenancies
  • Fault finding and circuit repairs
  • Smart home wiring retrofits
  • After-hours access work for body corporate and strata managers
  • Commercial fitouts for retail, restaurant, office, in tower base and waterfront precincts
  • Safety switch installation and compliance
  • Emergency electrical, 24 hours

What we find in most Docklands apartments

The towers along Collins Street, Lorimer Street and around Yarra’s Edge were built for a different electrical load than what people actually run in 2025.
A two-bedroom apartment that was designed to run a TV, a split system, and some lights is now running induction, multiple EV chargers home offices, and smart home systems simultaneously.

The switchboard that made sense at handover often doesn’t have the headroom for any of it.
Tripping circuits when the AC kicks on is the most common complaint we hear. It’s usually not a fault, it’s the circuit being asked to do more than it was sized for.

Sometimes it’s a simple fix. Sometimes the switchboard needs to be looked at properly.
The other thing we see: residents who want smart home capability that the developer never roughed in.

Retrofitting automation, motorised blinds, additional data points, or whole-home audio into a finished apartment requires working within the building’s constraints. It’s doable, but it needs an electrician who’s actually done it in high-rise before.

Commercial fitouts in Docklands towers

The retail and restaurant tenancies along the waterfront precinct and in the base of buildings like Marina Tower and Melbourne Quarter have a consistent challenge: the building’s common infrastructure is between you and your fitout, and you can’t just run cables wherever you want.

After-hours access for common areas, working within body corporate rules, and coordinating with building management isn’t something every electrician has the patience for. We’ve done enough of this work to know what the process looks like and how to keep a fitout moving without creating problems with building management that slow everything down.

If you’re taking on a commercial tenancy in Docklands, talk to us before you lock in your fitout timeline..

Docklands Electrical Work FAQ’s

Yes, but it requires more steps than a standard installation. The building’s main switchboard needs to have available capacity, the charger needs to be sub-metered so your usage is separately billed, and the installation needs OC approval, particularly if any common-area wiring is involved. We handle all of this. Call us to discuss your building specifically before you approach your owners corporation.

In almost all cases, the individual owner pays for their own charger and the associated electrical work to connect it. The body corporate’s involvement is typically about approving the work and ensuring any impact on common property is managed correctly, not funding it. If the building’s main switchboard needs a capacity upgrade to support multiple chargers, that’s a separate conversation and the cost allocation becomes more complex.

Usually yes. The most common cause is a circuit that’s undersized for the combined load of the AC and whatever else is running on it. In some cases it’s a faulty breaker. We’ll come out, assess the switchboard, and tell you what’s actually going on rather than guessing over the phone.

Yes. We understand that building management and body corporate access often means working outside standard hours to avoid impacting residents or building operations. If you’re a strata manager or building manager, call us and we’ll work around the access requirements.
