Power When You Need It Most – Common Use Cases
- Home Backup During Outages
Maintain electricity for lights, refrigerators, heaters, Wi-Fi and even medical equipment during unexpected blackouts or storm-related outages. In areas like the Dandenong Ranges and Yarra Valley where wild weather can knock out power, a home backup generator ensures your family stays safe and comfortable (no spoiled food or candles needed!). - Emergency Power Restoration
Facing an extended power cut or bushfire-related outage? We can quickly deliver a generator to get your household running again in an emergency. Having a standby generator on hire means you won’t be left in the dark – literally – while the grid is down. - Events & Outdoor Functions
Planning a wedding, party or community event in the Yarra Valley or outer Melbourne where mains power access is limited? A portable or trailer-mounted generator provides temporary power for sound, lighting, catering equipment and more, ensuring your event runs smoothly. - Home Renovations & Construction
If you’re renovating your house or building in a semi-rural area, you may need to shut off the mains or might not have permanent power connected yet. A hired generator keeps your tools, appliances, and site powered throughout the project. This means trades can keep working and you can continue daily life without interruption.

How often should I have my air conditioner serviced?

Regular servicing (cleaning filters, checking components) keeps the system efficient and can prevent breakdowns during the hottest days. Jake offers routine maintenance plans to keep your unit in top shape.

Do you provide a warranty on your work?
Yes. All installation work is backed by a lifetime workmanship guarantee. Jake stands by the quality of his work – as a Registered Electrical Contractor, he also provides the mandatory compliance certificate for the electrical installation. The aircon unit itself will have a manufacturer’s warranty, and Jake will help ensure you meet any installation requirements for that warranty.
