General Electrical Maintenance

All Electrical Contractors are licensed to carry out a broad range of general Electrical Maintenance work. From Electric Hot Water Unit servicing, to installing LED lighting, to installing smoke alarms in your home or commercial space.

Particularly in the older suburbs of Brisbane with Queenslanders, it’s important to assess the overall safety and functionality of the electrical components as they age, and as regulations and laws are updated.

At RTL Trades we boast the best electricians Brisbane has to offer. So don’t wait. Give us a call on 1300 000 785 today!

Safety Switches (RCD’s) and Switchboard Upgrades

Switchboards and safety switches are usually hidden away. Consequently, you may not know if your switchboard is out of date or could create a dangerous electrical hazard. If your home or commercial premises hasn’t had the switchboard looked at recently, it’s best to consider a switchboard inspection and potential upgrade. By doing so, you can ensure the occupants are safe and the safety devices are equipped to handle the modern day electrical demands of a property.

In addition, not only is a safety switch an added layer of protection, but safety switches (RCD’s) are required by Australian Law if you plan on leasing out the property.

Smoke Alarm Installation and Testing

RTL Trades Team of Maintenance Electricians offer smoke alarm installations, testing and maintenance for all types of smoke alarms. RTL’s range of services includes upgrading the smoke alarm systems to be photoelectric interconnecting and hardwired. Doing so ensures everyone is safe in your property in the unfortunate event of a fire.

In addition to installations, our Electricians offer yearly smoke alarm testing. If you would prefer a more frequent inspection of your smoke alarm, such as in between each change of tenancy or if you’re a landlord or Property Manager, please let us know.

LED Lighting Upgrades

Are you considering upgrading to LED lighting or looking at more energy efficiency solutions for your home or commercial premises? Switching to LED lighting offers significant energy savings when compared to traditional, energy hungry halogen and fluorescent bulbs. In fact, LED’s consume 80% less energy when compared to incandescent bulbs.

Take advantage of the cost savings and do your bit for the environment by changing to LED lighting today. Simply call our friendly customer service team on 1300 000 785 and schedule a visit from one of our friendly Electrical Contractors today!

    I’ve been in the workforce for 43 years (yikes), 15 of those being in the Accounts arena & 8 years with RTL. I jumped out of a plane when I was 40 & got my first tattoo at 50. RTL is a ‘family feel’ company that genuinely cares about the wellbeing of all staff members.

    I’ve been plumbing for 9yrs with RTL the entire time. I have a life-long fear of magpies after being pecked at 5 and remember it like it was yesterday – a scar on top of my head remains as a reminder. I enjoy the family feel to RTL. We laugh together and help each other out without hesitation.

    I have been working with pipes, mostly trenchless repair, for 8-9 years now. When I was born, Doctors told my parents I would grow to be about 5’3″ tall and about 65kgs, not a 6′ tall woodchopper who was once ranked in the top 10 strongest people in Australia.
