Sam and George from Whitelock Electrical did an outstanding job at my apartment. They completed all the work I requested and also came up with thoughtful solutions that exceeded my expectations. They worked cleanly and professionally, even taking the time to speak with my neighbour who had just had a baby, ensuring minimal noise disruption. Their service was not only high quality but also great value for money. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and considerate electricians.

We recently had Nathaniel and George from Whitelock Electrical install a pendant light for us, and we couldn't be happier with the service! From the initial communication to the finished job, everything was excellent. They were incredibly professional and friendly, completed the installation quickly and to a very high standard. The pricing was fair and transparent, with no hidden costs whatsoever, which we really appreciated. They were also very considerate and left our property spotless. It was great that they even kept us informed of their arrival time. We highly recommend Nathaniel and his team for any electrical work – a truly wonderful and efficient service!

Great company to deal with. Very professional in their communications, service delivery and after care. They worked on my kitchen renovation which required a lot of challenging work because of the age of the building. Nathaniel and his team worked with me from the beginning and delivered meticulous work. They also clean up after the job is done which is great to see. Highly recommended.

Cannot recommend Nathaniel and team enough! I needed a transmitter replacing in my ceiling fan but unfortunately the lighting shop gave me the wrong thing. Nathaniel quickly engaged his contacts and got me sorted with what I needed so he could continue to replace the part and fix the fan which was all done within 15mins. To sum it up he is very reliable, has good clear communication and goes over and above.Thank you!

We recently used Whitelock Electrical for some extensive electrical work on our home. From the very first contact Nathaniel was polite and very detailed with his quote and the scope of the works. On the day he arrived on time, he was courteous, thorough and totally skilled with all the work he preformed. He identified and explained some additional work the was required for compliance purposes and completed that as well. I was totally impressed and thrilled with the quality of his work. I would highly recommend Whitelock Electrical. Thank you Nathaniel and all the team at Whitelock.

Had a great experience with Whitelock Electrical. Nathaniel made a great effort to accommodate us at short notice, sorted and repaired the issue on the first visit, clearly explained what was causing the problem, and gave us some great advice to make sure that we avoided it happening again. He was upfront about the costs, arrived when he said he would, was polite and respectful of our home, and provided A+ customer service. Would happily and confidently recommend

Job well done! although the additional power point was more costly than I expected, Andrew.explained the reasons why clearly and pointed out updates were necessary to my ageing fuse box. Will definitely use Whitelock again in the future.

Nathaniel has been my go-to electrician since I moved into my apartment 2.5 years ago, and I couldn’t recommend him and his team more highly. He is incredibly communicative, professional, and meticulous in his work.His pricing is competitive—sometimes even more affordable than others—but honestly, the peace of mind that comes with hiring someone as trustworthy, transparent, and efficient as Nathaniel is worth every penny.Most recently, I had a big job done: two air conditioners installed and one removed. Andrew and Sam handled the installation flawlessly. They were not only skilled and efficient but also genuinely kind and considerate. They took great care in keeping the space as clean as possible—no easy task with all the brick dust!If you need an electrician, don’t hesitate—Nathaniel and his team are the best in the business. I’ve already recommended them to my neighbors, and they’ll be my first call for any future work!

We bought a ceiling fan from Beacon lighting and needed it installed and used the recommended electrician - Whitelock Electrical. What a fabulous decision! The entire process was smooth and absolutely a 5-star installation. Andrew arrived on time, installed the fan without needing to cut extra holes in the ceiling, saving extra costs for a plasterer and painter. He also checked our switchboard and upgraded an out-of-date safety switch. We could not be happier! Thanks for the great service.

Rebecca Wignall

What an amazing team Whitelock Electrical are. I needed a new ceiling fan installed and a being top floor apartment with no roof access, it was not going to be a straightforward job.I was contacted by Nathaniel who took the time to understand my requirements and expectations. I was so impressed with the online booking system they use which provided me with an upfront quote including options, capability statement and constant updates on my booking time. It was very innovative and gave me complete confidence as a customer. Game changer!Werner arrived on time and was such a pleasure to deal with. He was very skilled and with extremely limited access to existing walls and roof space, he installed my fan without leaving plaster to repatch and paint.I couldn’t have been happier with the end result.Working in the construction industry myself I appreciate how hard it can be to find reliable, honest and skilled tradesmen but I really hit the jackpot with this company, they really take pride in what they do.Well done guys it was such an easy and transparent process for me start to finish and you should be proud of the great team you have.I highly recommend this company for any electrical work you need.

I've used Whitelock Electrical a number of times over the years and always found the service to be exceptional. This time around Nathaniel spent considerable time on the phone with me working out the best solution both short and long term.Werner provided excellent service on the day (clearly Nathaniel has hired a team to match his own work ethic). Comms were clear all the way through with regular updates and no unexpected charges.I would not hesitate to recommend Whitelock Electrical if you are looking for a sparky to take care of your best interests.

Thanks guys, Andrew was efficient and helpful. Anything he was unable to complete he recommended someone else for me. Checked out my air-conditioning too and gave great advice. Will happily use again.

Nev Quick

I cannot recommend Whitelock Electrical highly enough. We recently moved into an Art Deco apartment. I had a number of electricians come to quote on installing air conditioning, exhaust fans, additional power points and ceiling.None of these things were going to be easy in an older apartment and in the end only Nathaniel gave me the confidence that he and his team could do the job. And indeed they did. They were able to discretely run cable which limited the need for excessive conduit and their quality of work and advice on AC and other matters was and is exceptional. Further Whitelock communications were fantastic and they proved to be extremely reliable in all that they did. Their pricing was also competitive. And finally Nathaniel, Andrew and Werner and all very genuine people.
