Before you say yes to an emergency call-out
- Ask for the call-out fee and what it covers: after-hours rates, travel and the first half hour are often charged separately from the repair.
- Check the licence: electrical work in Victoria must be done by a licensed electrician working for a Registered Electrical Contractor. Look the contractor up on Energy Safe Victoria's register. How to check a licence.
- Get the certificate: electrical installation work needs a Certificate of Electrical Safety, and the electrician must give you a copy (Energy Safe Victoria).
- Agree the scope: a make-safe visit tonight and the full repair later are often two jobs. Ask which you're getting.

How we list businesses: each one's own website advertises emergency or after-hours work and names Oakleigh or the south-east as an area it covers. We link to that page, and to its published licence or registration where there is one. Nobody here has paid to be listed, and listing isn't an endorsement. Businesses can claim their listing to correct it and add a phone number; claimed listings appear first. Checked 31 October 2026. Oakleigh is in the City of Monash.
