The whole process was seamless from start to finish. Highly recommend Jake to anyone looking for a reliable and skilled electrician. Thanks again, Jake!
Jake from JPG Tech was able to come out on short notice to perform an electrical safety check on my new home. He was also able to rectify any issues he found while on site in a timely manner. Highly recommend.
Jake originally came & installed a fan for me. He has now also replaced my smoke detectors. He is prompt & communicates well. His work is good.
Jake has been very efficient with great communication and expertise. Excellent work for all our intricate jobs. Highly recommend!
Jake undertook some works at our property, he was outstanding. He listened to our description of works, made sensible suggestions which we loved, and they made a big difference to our home project. Honestly, it was a joy to have him work on our home.
Jake the sparky is the man. He was fast, efficient and friendly for a decent price what more can ask for.

JPG Tech's owner, Jake Gretton, knows Yarra Valley better than anyone else.
Owner, JPG Tech (REC 31422). You deal with Jake from quote to certificate, not a call centre. Based in Silvan, he's spent years on Yarra Valley properties and knows what's behind the switchboard before he opens it.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does an electrician cost in the Yarra Valley?
JPG Tech doesn't charge hourly. We give you an upfront fixed quote after a free on-site assessment, so you know the full cost before work begins. Price depends on scope, your property's wiring and materials. Common jobs — switchboard upgrades, LED downlights, safety-switch replacements — are competitively priced with no travel surcharge, because we're based in the Valley.
Which Yarra Valley towns do you service?
All of them, plus the surrounds — Lilydale, Mount Evelyn, Silvan, Monbulk, Wandin, Seville, Coldstream, Yarra Glen, Healesville, Woori Yallock, Yarra Junction and Warburton. If you're unsure whether we cover your address, call us. We most likely do.
Can you run underground power to my shed or second dwelling?
Yes — underground power is one of our specialties. We run compliant underground circuits to sheds, workshops, pumps, gates, studios and granny flats across acreage properties, sized correctly for the load and the distance from your main switchboard.
Do you install backup generators for power outages?
Yes. Rural feeders in the Valley drop out in storms, so we install automatic changeover backup generators for homes, farms and businesses — the same Kohler systems we fitted at Haig Nursery in Monbulk. They start themselves when the grid fails and switch back automatically when it returns.
Can you install an EV charger on a rural or acreage property?
Yes. We install Level 2 hardwired EV chargers across the Valley, starting with a switchboard capacity check. For long driveways, limited-capacity homes or off-grid/solar setups, we install smart chargers with solar integration and load-sharing.
My older Yarra Valley home has a ceramic fuse box — does it need replacing?
Almost certainly. Ceramic fuse boxes are common in the Valley's older housing and don't meet current Victorian safety standards — no RCD protection, can't handle modern loads, and a genuine fire risk in a bushfire-prone area. We replace them with fully compliant modern switchboards.
