Electrician in Woolloongabba, Brisbane

Woolloongabba packs old and new side by side. The Fiveways intersection, the Gabba, the Princess Alexandra Hospital and the Cross River Rail works give it a commercial feel along the main roads, while the side streets still hold timber cottages from the late 1800s and early 1900s. Apartment buildings, townhouses and converted warehouses fill the gaps. Cockatoo Plumbing Electrical is based in Toowong, Brisbane, and carries out licensed electrical work in Woolloongabba homes and businesses. Phone 0450 963 633.

Rewiring old cottages

A Woolloongabba cottage may still have a ceramic fuse board, no safety switches and a mix of cable types in the roof. We inspect and test what is there, replace unsafe wiring and fit a new switchboard with RCBOs. When the house is being renovated, we rough in new circuits while walls and ceilings are open.

Apartments and car charging

Residents in the newer towers often want extra power points, better lighting or an EV charger in their car space. The car park and main switchroom are common property, so the body corporate must approve how charging is supplied. We check load capacity and install a dedicated circuit to suit.

Showrooms, shops and offices

Stanley Street and Logan Road have a long run of furniture, homewares and specialty shops, plus offices and cafes in old industrial buildings. Typical work includes lighting upgrades for display areas, extra circuits for equipment and coffee machines, sub-boards for tenancies and power for signage. Where a tenancy needs specialist systems, those stay with their own licensed contractors and we handle the general light and power.
