What Coogee customers say
Hi, while visiting Sydney Australia my friend and I were renovating a home at Coogee that I own and had been let down by one electrician already. We phoned Peter from Ambient Electrical based on the reviews here .
I think it pays to take a little time to read reviews as Peter has been a delight and a really a super nice gentleman who helped 2 ladies out with his genuine and honest approach.
We recommend Peter with the highest regard. Thank you Peter, a hard job well done.
Sonia and Holly.
“I first called on Ambient Electrical two years ago to do the electrical work for my Cafe in Coogee. Peter explained the limitations of what I wanted and put forth some really positive and creative alternatives. I trusted Peter as he seemed well informed and I was really happy with the end result. I continue to use Ambient Electrical and refer him without hesitation to my family and friends.”

Do holiday flats in Coogee need smoke alarms?
NSW law requires at least one working smoke alarm on each level of any residential building where people sleep, which covers owner-occupied homes, rentals and holiday flats alike, and each alarm must comply with Australian Standard AS 3786. Fire and Rescue NSW recommends going further, with interconnected alarms in every bedroom and living space. Hard-wired alarms have to be installed by a licensed electrician.

Why does the safety switch trip after rain in my Coogee home?
Rain-related tripping usually means water is reaching something outdoors, such as a weathered power point, a garden or step light, or a damaged cable, and the safety switch is cutting the power because current is leaking to earth. Near the beach, salt speeds up the corrosion that lets water in. Reset the switch once; if it trips again, leave it off and have an electrician find the wet fitting.
