What's included

The actual work involved — spelled out clearly so you know exactly what you're paying for.

Total power loss

Working out whether it's your home, your board or the street — and getting you back on quickly. If it's a network fault we'll tell you honestly, help you log it with Ausgrid, and won't charge for chasing the wrong thing.

Safety switch (RCD) tripping

Isolating the faulty circuit, testing each appliance and cable run properly, and permanently fixing what's causing the trip — not just resetting it and hoping.

Burning smells or sparking

Priority callout. Power isolated safely, the source located (usually a scorched connection, failing GPO or overloaded circuit), and repaired to a safe, compliant standard.

Storm & water damage

Damaged mains, flooded boards, tree-through-the-line — safely isolated, temporary supply arranged where possible, and a full quote for reinstatement.

Hot water & oven faults

Fast diagnosis of dead hot water systems, ovens and cooktops — often it's the isolation switch or a burnt connection rather than the appliance, and we'll tell you either way.

Loss of power to part of the house

One circuit down, half the powerpoints out, kitchen dead but the lights fine — tracked back to the actual fault instead of a random breaker swap.

Honest diagnosis first

We tell you what's actually wrong, what it'll cost to fix, and whether it's urgent right now or safe to wait a day — before we lift a tool.

After-hours & weekend availability

Genuine emergencies get answered outside business hours. We'll be straight with you about the callout fee before we head out.

Why Cozlec

Why Newcastle homeowners choose us for this

Electrical emergencies aren't the time to gamble on the cheapest quote. You want a licensed sparky, an honest diagnosis, and a fix that doesn't come back.

Upfront pricing

You get the number in writing before we lift a tool. Anything extra gets talked through and approved by you first — no surprises on the invoice.

Fully licensed NSW work

Licensed electrical contractors doing code-compliant work — tidy in the switchboard, tidy in the roof cavity, and documented properly where it needs to be.

12-month workmanship warranty

Every job is backed for 12 months in writing. If something we did isn't sitting right, one phone call and we're back out to fix it at no extra cost.

On time, every time

You get a real arrival window, not a vague 'sometime Tuesday'. If we're running late we ring ahead — your time matters as much as ours.

Common questions

Anything unsafe: burning smell, sparks, buzzing at the board, exposed conductors, water in a fitting or board, or a safety switch that trips and won't reset. Total loss of power, hot water down in the middle of winter or an oven out the night of a family dinner also qualify. If in doubt, ring us and we'll help you triage.
