Local electrical work in Booval


Booval is an established Ipswich suburb built around its railway station and shopping centre. Its streets are lined with timber Queenslanders, workers’ cottages and post-war homes, many of them on the original wiring or with only partial upgrades carried out over the years. A growing number are rental properties, and some have been renovated or extended by successive owners.

For Booval homeowners, the priorities are usually safety and capacity. Old switchboards, missing safety switches and circuits that cannot keep up with modern appliances are the most common problems we find. For landlords, it is compliance and fast repairs. For shops and services around the shopping precinct, it is keeping lighting, power and emergency systems reliable without interrupting trade.

We work across all of these from our base in Darra, a short drive east along the motorway. You get licensed electricians who explain what they find and give you a clear price before any work starts.

Older homes

Booval’s Queenslanders and cottages need careful work. We replace switchboards, rewire in stages to fit your budget, and protect original linings and features while we do it. We also add power points, modern lighting and fans, and prepare homes for air conditioning and solar.

Rental properties

For landlords, we handle smoke alarm and safety switch compliance, repair tenant-reported faults promptly and send invoices and certificates straight to your property manager. If you own an older rental, an electrical inspection gives you a clear list of priorities.

Big thank you to Matt and Lincoln for changing over 3 lights. Made the initial enquiry on Friday, not expecting anything to be done for a while, but Jo had us booked in for Monday morning. The boys turned up on time, efficiently completed the job and tidied up well after themselves. Not something we've always experienced with other trades. We've used FWES on a number of occasions now and regardless of who comes out, they're always communicative, efficient, respectful and professional. The FWES team are a pleasure to deal with.

It's rare that Tradies will show up exactly on time - yet this is exactly what Matthew and Ollie did. Even though there was an hour 'window' for arrival, they were on site at the start for 6.30am. Fast & efficient, installing a complete house of wired fire alarms and a new fan. I felt I had my whole morning back, no interruptions. Whole process from initial phone inquiry, to booking and installation was quick. Neat, presentable and tidied up after the job was done. Highly recommended!

Fully Wired electricians, Alex and Lincoln, have just finished installing new smoke alarms in my home so now I'm strictly compliant with Qld. Govt. regulations. I would include Jo (admin) in this review as she was super helpful and efficient. Alex and Lincoln were quick, tidy and cheerful and did an excellent job. I thorough recommend Fully Wired. Thank you.

I’ve engaged Fully Wired on a couple of occasions and both times they have been great to deal with and with competitive pricing. I recently had Alex out to complete a quote, and he and another employee (whose name I’m not sure of, sorry!) were brilliant despite being presented with a challenge first thing in the morning (which they overcame). Super impressed and will continue coming back to these guys for future electrical needs.

Adam and Ollie showed up on time for our EV Charger installation today. They had the unit installed in two hours, left the site clean and tidy. Once they had left, I noticed that our inverter and battery wasn’t functioning as it should and put in a call, request a return visit. This was obliged the same day - a couple of hours later. They showed up willing to explore and fix the issue. Very helpful, they restored everything functioning as it should. Great team and great service. I will be using them again for future works. Thank you very much.

I highly recommend Fully Wired for any electrical needs. I have now had 2 separate electrical services done. Last year Alex installed several outdoor power points and also gave us great advice about future requirements for a spa. Last week we had Zac & Linkin install a couple of heaters under our patio. We are very impressed by the fast service and attention to detail.

I had a ceiling fan installed and two chandeliers moved and re-fitted. The guys did a great job, not rushing through anything. They planned the whole process beforehand and did a great job tidying up afterwards.
