Electrical work in Western Sydney
Knut is preparing electrical coverage in Western Sydney. Requests and bookings open at launch.
Electrical jobs you can request
Knut can help you find a tradie for fault finding, power points, lighting, switchboard work, appliance connection or emergency electrical work. Explain what is not working or what you want installed, and include the number of items involved if you know it. For a fault, describe what you have noticed and when it happens. For new work, say what you want connected or changed. If the job involves an immediate danger to life or property, such as an electrical hazard, call 000 or the relevant emergency service first.
How to brief an electrical job
Give the job location, what needs doing and when you would like the work carried out. Add useful details such as which power point, light, appliance or switchboard is involved, and describe any symptoms you have observed. Photos can help explain the job when they are useful; do not put yourself at risk to take them. If you are arranging work across several properties, say so and explain which property needs attention. Knut sends your description to suitable local tradies who cover the area and offer that service.
Quotes, costs and Knut’s booking fee
There is no charge to request quotes. The tradie provides a quoted price for the work, and 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. Knut compares the quotes it receives and recommends the one that best fits the job, on merit. When you book through Knut, you pay the booking fee to Knut and the tradie’s quoted price for the work. Tradies keep 100% of their quoted price, and Knut does not charge them to quote.
Choosing and checking a tradie
Electrical work involves licensed work, so Knut only matches it to tradies whose licence has been verified. Read the quotes you receive against the job you described, and check that each one addresses the work you need. You can message the tradie through Knut and follow progress in one place after booking. Knut compares the quotes and recommends a fit on merit; you make the booking decision. Property managers, real-estate agencies and facilities teams can also use Knut to organise 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.
