Electrical services in South East
Knut is preparing electrical coverage in South East. Requests and bookings open at launch.
Electrical jobs you can request
Electrical work ranges from tracking down a fault to connecting an appliance. You can request help with fault finding, power points, lighting, switchboard work and appliance connections. Emergency electrical work is also listed as a service. Include the issue or task in your request, and explain whether you know what has caused it or need the tradie to investigate. If the job involves more than one item, list each one so tradies can consider the full scope when preparing a quote.
How to brief an electrical job
Describe what needs doing, where the work is, and when you would like it done. Be as clear as you can about the problem: for example, say which fitting, power point or appliance is involved and what you have noticed. Photos can be useful if they help show the area or equipment, but only include them where they are safe to take. If you are unsure what the fault is, say so rather than guessing. Knut sends your description to suitable local tradies who cover the area and offer that service.
Quotes and Knut's booking fee
There is no charge to request quotes. Customers pay Knut one booking fee when they book: 5% on smaller jobs, tapering to 2.5% on large jobs, and never more than $150.00. You also pay the tradie's quoted price for the work. Knut compares the quotes it receives and recommends the one that best fits the job, on merit. Tradies keep 100% of their quoted price, and Knut does not charge them to quote. Review the quote and the job details before booking.
Choosing and checking an electrical tradie
Electrical work involves licensed work. Knut only matches it to tradies whose licence has been verified. When considering a quote, check that it addresses the work you described and ask the tradie about anything that is unclear before booking. Knut compares received quotes and recommends one based on how well it fits the job. Once you book through Knut, you can message the tradie and follow progress in one place. Property managers, real-estate agencies and facilities teams can also use Knut for maintenance across many properties.
Knut's booking fee
Requesting quotes is free. When you book, Knut adds one booking fee, shown before you pay, and never more than $150. The provider keeps 100% of their quote.
