Electrical work swings from ten-minute call-outs to multi-day switchboard upgrades and rewires, and the price drivers are rarely obvious to the customer — cable runs, board capacity, compliance testing and certificates all move the number. Tradewin prices any electrical job against your real costs and sends a professional quote from the van, before you've left the site. Save your common jobs — GPO installs, RCD swaps, EV charger fits — as TradeWin Recipes™ so the next quote is a two-tap job.

Pre-loaded job types with benchmarks — plus the ability to add your own custom jobs.
The same job can vary widely. Tradewin prices against your real costs, so these factors are built in — not guessed.
Adding circuits or upgrading to three-phase depends on spare ways, board condition and how far the run is — the same “add a circuit” job can vary by hundreds of dollars.
Surface-mounted conduit is quick; chasing into walls, crossing a double-brick cavity or fishing a ceiling adds real labour customers rarely price in.
Safety testing, RCD compliance and the certificate of electrical safety are billable time — quoting them explicitly protects your margin and your licence.
Copper cable, breakers and switchgear prices move. Pricing off your latest wholesaler invoice — not last year's rates — keeps quotes profitable.
3-Phase Power Upgrade
Price depends heavily on existing infrastructure, switchboard capacity, and council requirements.
Add Circuit to Switchboard
Cost varies with distance from switchboard and whether conduit is required.
Air Con Electrical — General
Select a specific type below for a tighter benchmark.
Arc Fault / Loose Termination Rectification
Intermittent burning smell or charring at terminations — switchboard or in-circuit; distinct from standard fault finding.
Backup Generator Installation
Varies with generator size, fuel type, and automatic transfer switch requirements.
CCTV — 1–2 Camera System
Basic system with NVR/DVR — straightforward cable runs.
