Your local Newport electrician.

Electrical3 is based in Cromer, minutes from Newport. We work on older beach houses and weekenders, many timber-framed and set on steep or stepped blocks — the faults, switchboards, lighting and EV charging that come with them.

What makes wiring in Newport different

A mix that changes street by street — older beach cottages, newer builds, and apartment blocks along Barrenjoey Road. That mix means the work splits between full switchboard upgrades in houses and strata jobs where the fault sits somewhere between the meter room and the unit.

Salt exposure and split-level layouts are the two things that make electrical work here different. Weatherproof-rated fittings are not optional on this part of the coast, and a cheap external GPO will be failing inside a couple of winters.

What we do in Newport

Faults and emergencies

No power, tripping circuits, burning smells, hot switches. We find the cause rather than replacing parts until it stops.

Switchboard upgrades

Safety switches, circuit protection and a board that matches what the house actually runs today. See switchboard upgrades →

Lighting and downlights

LED replacements, dimming, outdoor and task lighting. Get a downlight price →

Power and smoke alarms

Extra power points, safety switches and compliant interconnected smoke alarms.

EV charging

Steep driveways and detached garages usually mean a longer sub-main run for an EV charger, which is worth pricing properly rather than guessing. Price an EV charger →

Renovations

Kitchens, bathrooms and additions — planned so the board and the circuits keep up with the new load.

Straight pricing. You are told the attendance rate before we come, and anything larger is quoted in writing before it starts.

Newport electrical questions

Do you actually work in Newport?

Yes. Electrical3 is based in Cromer, which puts Newport inside the area we cover every week — not a suburb added to a list. Call 0417 297 285 and you will speak to John.

What does it cost to get someone out in Newport?

Attendance and the first hour is charged at our standard rate, and you are told that number before we come. Larger work — a switchboard upgrade, downlights, an EV charger — is quoted in writing before anything starts.

Can you help with external fittings, outdoor GPOs and light fittings corroding early in the salt air?

Yes, and in Newport it comes up regularly. A mix that changes street by street — older beach cottages, newer builds, and apartment blocks along Barrenjoey Road. That mix means the work splits between full switchboard upgrades in houses and strata jobs where the fault sits somewhere between the meter room and the unit.
