A heritage-style switch and dimmer next door in Norman Park. We traced a lighting fault to the old dimmer, then fitted an LED-compatible one.

Had these guys come round to sort some new lighting and power points. Super easy to deal with, showed up on time, no fuss, and cleaned up after. Proper quality job, would 100% get them back again.

Camp Hill regulars
We work in Camp Hill and the suburbs next door, so we’re usually close by.
What we get called for
When a Camp Hill home needs an electrician
These are the jobs we see most in Camp Hill, from post-war cottages to renovated Queenslanders and units. A few can wait for a normal booking. The first three, however, are worth getting looked at soon.
Dead lights or power points
Some lights or power points are dead, yet nothing has tripped? Then the cause is often a loose connection, a failed fitting or a faulty dimmer, and testing will find it.
Power keeps tripping
Usually one circuit, one appliance or water in a fitting is behind it. So we test each circuit until we find the cause, instead of guessing.
Scorched or buzzing fittings
A hot, buzzing or scorched power point, switch or light needs a look soon. Switch it off, then call us so we can find out why.
Carport and outdoor lighting
Downlights, sensor lights and floodlights for carports, decks and paths. For example, we fitted six downlights, a sensor and a power point in one Camp Hill carport.
Smoke alarm upgrades
By 1 January 2027, every Queensland home needs photoelectric, interconnected smoke alarms. So we fit, test and certify them for you.
Units and shared circuits
In unit blocks, some lights end up wired to the shared circuit. We rewired two Camp Hill floodlights so they now run from the owner’s own switch.
Smell burning, or see sparks?
Turn the fitting off at the wall, then switch that circuit off at the switchboard if you can do it safely. After that, give us a call. If there’s smoke or fire, get everyone out and call 000 first.
Pricing, explained
How our Camp Hill electrician quotes work
Reviewed by MJ, licensed electrician at M-Tech. QLD electrical contractor licence 90386. Updated September 2026.
Faults start with a diagnostic visit, and we’ll tell you that fee before we book. Installs are different, because we can usually price them from a few details or a quick look. Either way, you approve the price before we start.
1
Quick jobs
Replacing a light, a switch or a power point rarely takes long. If you have a few small jobs, we can also group them into one visit.
2
Bigger jobs in older homes
Switchboard upgrades, rewiring and new circuits take more planning than a quick repair. So we look first, then put the whole scope in writing.
3
Shops, cafes and unit blocks
We also work on Camp Hill shops, cafes and shared unit circuits. For example, we lit a local cafe’s outdoor dining area and the underside of its counter.
Also an electrician for Carina, Coorparoo and Seven Hills
Camp Hill sits between Coorparoo, Norman Park, Seven Hills and Carina, so those jobs are just as easy for us. As a Carina electrician, we see the same kinds of homes and faults, such as dated fuse boards and worn outdoor fittings. Next door, our Norman Park electrician page covers the inner east, while our service areas list the rest.
Recent Camp Hill electrician jobs, plus a few nearby
These come straight from our job records. The first three are in Camp Hill, while the rest are close by in Norman Park, Cannon Hill and Coorparoo.
Camp Hill
FoundA carport needed lighting and power added.
DoneWe fitted six downlights, a light sensor and a new 10A power point, then tested them.
Camp Hill
FoundA cafe wanted warm lighting over its outdoor dining area, as well as under the counter.
DoneWe hung the owner’s festoon lights across the ceiling, then fitted 5 metres of warm white LED strip in an aluminium channel under the counter.
Camp Hill
FoundTwo floodlights at a unit had failed. They turned out to be wired into the complex’s shared lighting circuit.
DoneWe replaced both and rewired them, so they now run from the owner’s own light switch.
Norman Park
FoundA lighting circuit had a fault, so it needed tracing.
DoneWe fault-found the circuit and traced it to the old dimmer. Then we fitted a new LED-compatible dimmer and checked every connection.
Cannon Hill
FoundA gate light needed a new underground supply.
DoneWe laid underground-rated conduit with glued joints, then pulled new cable through and put warning tape above it. After that, we connected and tested the gate light.
Coorparoo
FoundThe hot water circuit kept tripping.
DoneWe checked the hot water side first, then found the real cause: a water pump was overloading the same circuit. Unplugging the pump stopped the trips.

Good to know
Is M-Tech a regular Camp Hill electrician?
Yes. Camp Hill sits right beside Norman Park and Coorparoo, where we do a lot of our work, so we’re usually close by. Our records show Camp Hill jobs such as carport lighting, cafe lighting and unit floodlights.
How soon can a Camp Hill electrician get to me?
We aim for same-day where we can, Monday to Friday. When you call, we’ll give you a realistic time, and if we can’t make it soon enough, we’ll say so.
Older Camp Hill homes: what we look for
Many homes here are Queenslanders, post-war cottages and renovated character houses. So we often find old switchboards, circuits without safety switches, and extensions added onto old wiring. If your smoke alarms are older, it’s also worth an upgrade before 2027.

Mj and team provide a service above and beyond what we expect. With the amount of electrician’s in Brisbane, it’s hard to know who will provide a great service, the quality of work we received, we couldn’t be more pleased with how the result turned out. They provided clear and accurate details of the job and how they were going to handle the work, provided us with updates throughout the day, were respectful, punctual and left the property cleaner than they arrived. Highly recommended!Posted on RelmzTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

The tradesmen arrived precisely when they said they would, were both courteous, performed a very high standard of work and left their worksite clean.

Camp Hill electrician questions, answered
Something specific? Then call 1800 549 545 and ask an electrician.
Are you a local electrician in Camp Hill?
Yes. We work in Camp Hill regularly, and we’re often in the suburbs next door. So Camp Hill is an easy trip for us.
Why do only some of my lights or power points work?
Usually that circuit has lost power because of a tripped safety switch, a loose connection or a failed fitting. So we test it first, then repair whatever has failed.
Can you fix a faulty dimmer?
Yes. Next door in Norman Park, for example, we traced a lighting fault to an old dimmer, then replaced it with an LED-compatible one.
Do you work in Carina too?
Yes, we’re also an electrician for Carina, Carina Heights and Coorparoo. The homes there are much like Camp Hill’s, so the same checks apply.
How do you price a job?
For faults, we start with a diagnostic visit, and you’ll know the fee before we book. For installs, you get one price before work starts.
Can you light up a carport or outdoor area?
Yes. In one Camp Hill carport, we fitted six downlights, a light sensor and a power point. We’ve also installed festoon lights and LED strip for a local cafe.
Do you work on units and shared circuits?
We do. At one Camp Hill unit, two floodlights were wired into the shared lighting circuit, so we rewired them onto the owner’s own switch.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. M-Tech Electrical Solutions QLD holds electrical contractor licence 90386, and a licensed electrician does every job.
Can a Camp Hill electrician upgrade my smoke alarms?
Yes. We fit photoelectric, interconnected smoke alarms, test them together, then send your certificate. By 1 January 2027, every Queensland home needs them.
