Residential Electricians
LME Electrical is a team of residential electricians in Sydney helping homeowners with everything from urgent repairs to full home rewiring, renovations and new electrical installs. We work with families across the city who need electrical work done properly, not just quickly, and who want an electrician they can call again for the next job.
As residential electrical contractors, we handle rewiring, renovation and new-build electrical work, switchboard upgrades, and safety inspections, so whether you’re updating an older home, extending an existing one, or wiring a new build from scratch, the work is planned around how your household actually uses power day to day.
We service homes across the North Shore, Northern Beaches and Eastern Suburbs, from one-off repairs through to full-home renovations and new builds, and we’re just as comfortable with a small switchboard job as we are project managing a full rewire.
For families with young children, safety is even more of a priority, and our home electricians can advise on keeping everyone safe around electricity, not just fixing what’s broken. If you need a hand with a repair, upgrade or renovation, get in touch and we’ll talk through what’s involved and what it will cost before any work starts.

Residential Electrical Services Across Sydney
LME Electrical provides residential electrical services in Sydney covering everything from everyday repairs and installs to full renovations, new builds and outdoor electrical work for homes across the city.
Power
Power point installations and repairs are some of the most common jobs we do, whether you need an extra outlet in a home office, a faulty point fixed, or additional circuits added to support more appliances than your home was originally wired for.
Garden / Pool / Outdoor
Outdoor and pool areas need electrical work that’s rated for exposure to weather and moisture, from garden lighting and irrigation timers to pool pump wiring and safety switches. We install and repair outdoor circuits to the right safety standard, not just whatever’s convenient.
Lighting
Good lighting changes how a home feels, indoors and out, and we install and upgrade everything from general room lighting to feature lighting, downlights and outdoor security lighting, including upgrades to more efficient LED fittings.
Switchboard Upgrades
Older switchboards often don’t have the safety switches or capacity that modern homes need, especially once you add air conditioning, EV charging or a home office. We assess your switchboard and upgrade it to current safety standards where needed.
Renovations
Renovations mean moving walls, adding rooms and changing how power and lighting need to be laid out, and getting the electrical work wrong early can be expensive to fix later. As home renovation electricians, we plan wiring around your renovation from the design stage, not as an afterthought once walls are already open.
Safety
Regular safety inspections catch faults before they become a hazard, particularly in older homes with ageing wiring. As a qualified residential electrician in Northern Beaches and across Sydney, we test switchboards, safety switches and wiring, and explain clearly what, if anything, needs attention.
New Builds
New home builds need wiring planned from the ground up, coordinated with your builder’s schedule rather than squeezed in afterwards. We handle the full electrical scope for new builds, from initial rough-in through to final fit-off and compliance certification.
Telephone / Data / Television
Modern homes rely on reliable data, phone and TV points in the right places, not wherever the original build happened to put them. We install and upgrade data cabling, phone lines and TV points to match how you actually use each room.
Disconnect / Reconnect
Renovations, appliance changes and property relocations often call for power to be safely disconnected and reconnected, and we handle that work so nothing is left live or unsafe partway through a job.
Appliances / Hot Water
Hot water systems, ovens, cooktops and other fixed appliances each need correctly wired, dedicated circuits, and we install and repair these connections so your appliances run safely and reliably rather than on a makeshift setup.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, we provide emergency electrical callouts for urgent issues like power outages, sparking outlets or tripped safety switches that won’t reset. We prioritise these jobs over routine bookings, since an electrical fault at home can be a genuine safety risk, not just an inconvenience.
Electrical work should be planned before renovation work starts, ideally at the design stage, so wiring, power points and lighting are positioned correctly before walls are closed up. Changing electrical plans after walls are finished usually costs more and takes longer than getting it right the first time.
Safety switches, tamper-resistant power points and covering exposed outlets are the main starting points for child safety. We can inspect your home and recommend simple upgrades, prioritising the areas where young children spend the most time, like living rooms and bedrooms.
It depends on the age and condition of the existing wiring; not every older home needs a full rewire. In many cases we can upgrade the switchboard and safety switches and replace only the sections of wiring that no longer meet current standards, rather than rewiring the whole house.
Yes, we work as a residential electrician in Manly and a residential electrician in Seaforth, along with the surrounding Northern Beaches suburbs. Being local to the area means we know the common wiring setups in older Manly and Seaforth homes.
Yes, as a residential electrician in Lane Cove we cover everything from routine repairs to full new-build wiring. We work with homeowners, owner-builders and builders directly, scheduling around the rest of the build program where needed.
