Old fuses causing trips or overheating?
If your ceramic fuses crack, heat up, or trip when several appliances run together, your board is under strain. Homes lacking safety switches risk electric shock and fire, especially older or renovated properties. Adding a spa, shed, or man cave further increases demand and risk.

Why Adelaide Homeowners Trust Our Work
Excellent Team with Cost Effective Solutions
Garry and his team, Mike and Dennis, were excellent! We had some curly questions for Garry and he worked through them to come up with the best, most cost effective solutions for us. He explained everything clearly and was happy to answer any questions. He arrived on time, let me know what was happening and did what he said he would! Mike and Dennis were polite, punctual, quick and neat. They cleaned up after themselves and left everything how they found it. I was very impressed. Thoroughly nice guys, all of them. Very good value for money too. Highly recommend GESA.

Prompt Efficient and Reliable Installation
The GESA Team did a fantastic job at our house installing our new ceiling fans. Very prompt, efficient, reliable and professional service from start to finish. Our new fans are great value for money, so quiet, you can’t even hear them, and they even come with lights which can be dimmed as required. Ideal for the warm summer nights, my only regret is that I should have done it earlier! Highly recommended. Thank you so much Mishi, Garry, Michael and Dennis. Keep up the great work!

Responsive Professional with Honest Advice
Gary and his team are super responsive with giving quotes and are really professional to deal with. One of the fans that we bought ourselves to be installed didn’t have a light, which we didn’t realise, but luckily Gary bought a spare fan with him that he was able to install. It was way nicer than the fan we bought anyway with dimming functions and a timer! In addition to this, we asked about installing a fan elsewhere in our house and he gave us his honest opinion on why a fan there wouldn’t be useful to us and why, which we really appreciated as it saved us money.

Professional Friendly Installation of Sky Fans
We had a wonderful experience using Garry from GESA as our electrician. We chose him to support a local business and found him to be extremely professional, knowledgeable and friendly. The installation of sky fans in our enclosed verandah is perfect. We needed lighting in there too so Garry recommended the use of sky fans with built in lights. They are perfect. Now we can’t wait to add a TV to the bracket he installed and use our new area to its full potential. We highly recommend GESA.
Kerry Traeger
Superb Ceiling Fan Installation with Helpful Service
Highly recommend GESA Electrical, friendly, knowledgeable staff who were super helpful and informative from the first contact. Garry and his apprentice did a superb job installing ceiling fans for us, and provided lots of information on operation and troubleshooting. Garry also noticed an issue we were having with a smoke alarm and fixed this for us, and was happy to help fix a broken switch that had been causing issues. Thank you so much! We will definitely be calling you again for our future electrician needs!

Exceeded Expectations on Multiple Electrical Projects
We have used GESA for several jobs over the years, including installing under eave downlights, upgrading internal lighting (which involved replacing old lights with downlights and installing new ceiling fans throughout the house), installing pendant lights in the main bedroom, installing Hikvision security cameras, and upgrading our switchboard. Garry and his team have always exceeded our expectations. They take the time to understand our vision and work tirelessly to turn it into a reality. We highly recommend GESA and their team.

Above and Beyond Troubleshooting Support
GESA Electrical had previously installed our TV Antenna on our roof. Today a safety switch kept tripping which resulted in us losing power to some parts of our house. Called GESA Electrical and spoke with Garry who clearly had the very best intentions in mind as he went above and beyond by giving us the steps to (Safely) troubleshoot the issue by unplugging different appliances from certain power points and re testing with alternate devices to isolate the issue. We ended up confirming which appliance was causing the issue and are nothing short of amazed by the quality of service we received from Garry. We plan to get some other electrical work done in the near future and we can most definitely say that we will be reaching back out to GESA Electrical again! Thanks Garry!

Brilliant Service with Stunning Kitchen Lights
We have used GESA Electrical for numerous jobs over the past few years. Recently Garry installed lights for us in the kitchen as well as a ceiling fan. The lights are simply stunning. Service was brilliant, Garry is truly a magician at his job. So professional and prompt. Didn’t just install the lights but had a conversation with me on how I would like them to look. An absolute gentleman. Would thoroughly recommend him.
