Electrical faults and maintenance in the Perth Hills & Perth metro
Lights flickering, power points dead or a breaker that won't stay on? Kivalo Electrical diagnoses and fixes electrical faults, and does planned maintenance, for homes and businesses across the Perth Hills and greater Perth.


If you see sparks or smoke, smell burning, or someone has been hurt or shocked, call 000 first.
Common faults we're called to
- A power point or whole circuit that's stopped working.
- A breaker or safety switch that keeps tripping.
- Lights flickering or dimming.
- A hot, buzzing or discoloured switch or power point (switch it off and don't use it).
- An appliance or hot water system that has no power.
How we find the cause
Resetting a breaker doesn't fix the problem behind it. We test the circuits to find the cause, explain what we found, and talk through the repair options before we do the work.
Urgent faults
Our standard hours are Mon–Fri, 7am–3pm, and we do take urgent jobs outside those hours. Minimum charges apply for urgent after-hours jobs. Call us on 0412 578 364 and we'll do what we can to help.
Planned maintenance
For businesses, rental properties and commercial sites, regular checks and upkeep catch small problems before they become outages. Tell us about your property and what you'd like looked after, and we'll talk through a plan.
What affects the cost
A fault can take minutes or hours to track down, so the cost depends on what we find. What affects the cost:
- How long it takes to find the cause.
- Parts and materials needed for the repair.
- Access to the affected circuit or equipment.
- Whether the call is urgent or after hours. Minimum charges apply for urgent after-hours jobs.
- For planned maintenance, the size and type of the property and how often you'd like visits.

FAQ
Faults & maintenance: your questions answered.
Why does my safety switch keep tripping?
A safety switch trips when it detects electricity leaking where it shouldn't. The cause can be a faulty appliance, damaged wiring or moisture. Please don't keep resetting it. Call us and we'll find the cause.
Is a burning smell an emergency?
It can be. Switch off at the main switch if it's safe to, keep away from the area, and call 000 if there is fire or smoke. Then call us.
Do you attend faults after hours?
Yes, we take urgent jobs outside standard hours. Minimum charges apply. Call us to talk it through.
Can you do maintenance for my business?
Yes. We do scheduled maintenance as well as unexpected faults. Tell us about your property and we'll discuss what suits.
