Electrician in Jamberoo

The full details for Jamberoo

Jamberoo feels a world away from the coast, even though Kiama is only a short drive east. The village sits in a green valley ringed by hills, with the pub, a few shops and the surrounding dairy country that has been farmed for generations. The escarpment and the Minnamurra Rainforest are close by, and most visitors know the area for Jamberoo Action Park.

For the people who live here, Jamberoo means a mix of village homes and rural properties, and both bring their own electrical needs.

Rural and acreage properties

Properties outside the village often have long runs between the house, sheds, workshops and water pumps. Over the years these supplies get extended, repaired and patched, sometimes without much thought for the load or the cable size. Common issues we see include:

• Sheds powered by a long extension lead or an undersized cable
• Outdoor power points that have been exposed to weather for years
• Old switchboards in sheds with no safety switch protection
• Pumps or equipment that trip the power without a clear reason

A proper supply to a shed or workshop, with its own circuit protection and safety switches, is safer and more reliable. Kalani can look at what you have and tell you plainly what needs doing. Over long distances, cable size matters too. Too small a cable on a long run means voltage drop, which can leave motors and tools struggling.

Village homes

Closer to the centre of Jamberoo, homes range from older weatherboard cottages to more recent builds. Jobs here are similar to anywhere in the Illawarra:

• Switchboard upgrades for older homes
• LED lighting and new light fittings
• Additional power points, including USB outlets
• Interconnected smoke alarms on every level
• Ceiling fans for warm valley afternoons

When the weather turns

Storms can settle in over the valley, and rural properties are more exposed to wind, water and fallen branches. If a storm leaves you without power or with a tripping safety switch, we are open 24 hours for emergency call outs. We will talk you through staying safe until we arrive. Tracking down faults is something we are known for, and customers have told us Kalani resolved problems other electricians could not.

Outdoor lighting

Rural driveways and yards get very dark at night. Sensor lights on sheds, lighting along paths and a well lit entry make getting around safer. See our outdoor and security lighting page for what we install.

You speak directly to Kalani, who runs Flowstate Electrical Co. He turns up on time, explains things without jargon and treats your property with care.

We also work across Kiama and down to Gerringong.
