You have an electrical job in Camberwell ready to go, and what you mostly want now is a clear price and a date, not a runaround. Smartlec answers that with a $99 inspection fee to come out, look at the work and quote it properly, and that $99 is waived in full the moment you go ahead.
Smartlec Electrical Solutions is run by Martin Turnbull, a licensed A-Grade electrician who has been doing this since 2017, and it covers Camberwell and the rest of Melbourne's inner east from a base in nearby Prahran. Tell us what the job is and you have a firm number before any tools come out.
The price question, answered before anyone visits
The questions people ask most about a Camberwell electrician are all about money: the hourly rate, the minimum charge, and the fee nobody warned them about until the invoice. Here is the plain version.
The $99 inspection covers us assessing the job in person and handing you a fixed quote. Once you go ahead, that $99 comes off the bill, so the assessment has cost you nothing. From there the price is set per item or quoted to the whole job, never an open-ended hourly rate climbing while you watch the clock. A small job is welcome on the same terms as a large one, with no quiet minimum padded into the total. For straightforward work we can often quote from a few clear photos, no visit needed.
From One Power Point to Full Commercial Fit-Outs
A Camberwell home and a shopfront along Burke Road need very different things, and we take on both. The home side runs from the small but nagging jobs (a dead power point, a downlight that stopped working, an extra USB outlet, a safety switch that needs adding) through to the substantial: a complete switchboard upgrade, a full or partial rewire, LED lighting and downlights, ceiling fans, and weatherproof points for a deck or garden. Safety switch installation and RCD testing sit underneath all of it, because a board with no residual-current protection is usually the first thing worth sorting.
For Camberwell businesses we cover commercial wiring and lighting, data cabling, emergency lighting and switchboard work across offices, retail tenancies and consulting suites, all to current Australian electrical standards. If you are buying, selling or renovating, electrical safety checks come with a written report on what passed and what needs attention.

Camberwell wiring: switchboards that have run out of room
