Keith is an Electrical Contractor (Lic # 7801). Also has a Cabler’s License – for installing telephones and TV outlets.
He has been a qualified electrician for 37 years – 25 of which have been in the local Wide Bay area.
Has undertaken large projects, eg retirement village of 170 odd units, employing 5 men, - fitted out hundreds of new houses, but now is a sole trader with his son as assistant when required.
So his projects now are residential houses, commercial (mainly renovations or refurbishments) and the bulk of his work is maintenance and repairs. He is becoming very adept at stoves! (Something that a lot of sparkies were reluctant to get into because there are so many brands with a variety of elements and parts etc)
He doesn’t mind being called after hours or weekends and will endeavour to assist over the phone but if need be will attend at no after hours surcharge or penalty. If the distance to travel after hours is out of the town area, he will charge a little extra.
Keith is quite a character – he has a wonderful manner with the aged and disabled. He attends to approx 15 maintenance calls per week, the majority being retired.
He doesn’t have a pensioner discount rate as such but usually reduces what he charges them. A nice guy!
His hourly rate is $75 GST inclusive and $46.50 for his trade assistant.
