As technology advances, so does the convenience of running our homes.  We have electric kettles instead of a boiling pot on the stovetop, we have big televisions working in conjunction with sound systems and we have home offices with computers, hard drives, printers and more! There are several appliances around your home that require a power outlet to plug into but rarely are there actually a sufficient number of power points installed within the home. This is especially true for older homes where it’s likely that your power points only have one socket, limiting your appliance usage at any one time.

At North Lakes and Surrounds Electrical, we offer an affordable solution to this dilemma, installing double and quadruple socket power points, even power points with built in USB sockets and testing their efficiency. These power point installation services are available to replace single socket outlets or to create a more convenient power point location within your home.

Working with you, we can select the right number of power points to install as well as their design and add-ons. With modern technology giving us a variety of additional options for added functionality, you can now get power points with switches or USB ports that enhance convenience.

Power points with switches are most commonly used to power lights and fans, keeping all switches neatly together while USB power points are great for charging appliances that have USB adaptors such as mobile phones.

For more than 20 years, we have been providing superior electrical services to the Moreton Bay Region and beyond. When it comes to power point installations in north Brisbane, we know them all and have the expertise to install them where you need them most. Our power point installation services include:

Upgrading Existing Power Points: As discussed earlier, you may be looking to invest in a double or quadruple power point. Another reason to upgrade an existing power point is that the plastic may begin to crack or the switches become loose. Upgrading your existing power points is a simple way to improve the aesthetic of your home to be more modern. 

New Power Point Installation: Are you finding that your home just simply does not have enough power points? A common problem among older homes, our team at North Lakes & Surrounds Electrical can install new power points where none previously existed. 

Outdoor Power Point Installation: Usually combined with a socket cover to help waterproof the power point, these outdoor sockets can make gardening and power tool use easier and hassle-free. They can also be used to run extension leads where you don’t have to leave a window or door open and running through the yard. You may also find outdoor power points useful for security features such as cameras or lighting. 

Testing of Power Points: Do you feel that your power points might be getting old a little bit dodgy? Don’t risk it – give us a call today to get us out to your property and testing those power points immediately. We will also test all new power points installed by our team.
