Every Northstar electrician is fully QBCC-licensed. We're members of Master Electricians Australia and carry $20 million public liability insurance. Compliance certificates are issued on every job that requires one.

Most domestic switchboard upgrades fall between $1,500 and $2,800 depending on circuit count, board location, and whether your existing wiring needs work. We give you a fixed-price written quote after an on-site inspection — no estimates, no "we'll see how it goes."

Yes. We do retail fit-outs, office wiring, three-phase installations, switchboard maintenance contracts, and emergency lighting compliance. Recent jobs include Stockland Riverside, several Aitkenvale offices, and a number of Townsville cafes.

We're CEC-accredited solar installers. We do residential PV installs (typically 6.6kW to 13.2kW systems), battery retrofits with Tesla Powerwall and Sungrow, and commercial systems. We use tropical-grade panels — the cheap stuff doesn't last in Townsville heat.
