Staff employment
Being based in St Kilda, we try and employee people from the area where ever possible. Electrician St Kilda is a fact in this company!
Our employees are generally from St Kilda or surrounding suburbs as it gives us a community feel and makes it easier for employees to get to and from work.
We encourage all our apprentices to stay with St Kilda Electrics once they become Qualified A Grade Electricians as they know our customers and have been trained specifically in the style of work we offer.
Knowledge and techniques
With 30 years of experience and accumulated knowledge along with continual education and training St Kilda Electrics are able to provide superior service and performance.
St Kilda Electrics staff undergo regular training and courses to further their knowledge within the ever changing electrical, data, fiber optic, NBN, TV/audio and security world.
New licenses within the fields are gained and refresher courses taken as required to stay on top of the latest innovations.
We also take knowledge from our young staff to always stay relevant with their contributions and current trends within the next generation

Our vehicles
We proudly have our cars sign written so that we are easily recognized when we visit homes, business and offices.
Workmanship
We are proud of our work and will always attempt to gain the best and highest professional finish. We will always attempt to hide the wiring (in the walls or roof, under the floor etc) so all the customer sees is a finished item on the wall or ceiling.
We always ensure lines are straight to the eye and to the level.
If surface work is required we ensure the customer know what their available options are and we go through the possibly scenarios, working with the customer to get the best possible outcome
Environment and cleaning
We always recycle any items we can and rubbish into the correct bins
We have a policy of refusing plastic bags multiple times
We clean up after our jobs to an immaculate standard - so much so that when we are finished, you would hopefully never know you’ve had tradesmen in the house except for the new installation!
We always vacuum, sweep and dust as required.
We will even mop if necessary
Preparation
We have a huge range of items on board our vehicles to try as much as is possible to have the parts required so our service/repair works can be complete as efficiently as possible
For our quoted works we pre-order materials to ensure we have the parts ready to go for the bigger installations
We always try and match our workers with the jobs that they are best suited to and will always try to be sure the same electrician visits you again
Saying that we are only a small team so you'll get know all of us
Protecting your property
We will often move items out of harm’s way when we think they may be affected by an installation or repair
We carry drop sheets for beds and furniture etc to stop any dust falling upon them
We will put down plastic sheeting for high traffic areas when required
We will stop debris being brought in from the outside
Any issues that we feel could affect your property or our electrical works will be discussed on site with a view to either working out what can be done to avoid said issues or if unavoidable, what steps are necessary to rectify.
Insurances
We are fully insured: Public liability, car insurances, Long Service Leave, Work Cover and Employee Superannuation are all current as to the required relevant laws and regulations
