EXCELLENT Based on 116 reviews Posted on Anna DuncanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I am very pleased to recommend Carlin Co Electrical. An extremely professional group of young men who arrived on time, worked diligently and took pride in their work. Respectful and polite, the boys even found time to play with our demanding dog! From quote to completion, we were kept informed, even receiving texts of arrival times. Thank you Hamish, Howie, Jackson and Jackson. Absolutely fantastic - keep up the great work!Posted on Raja LakshmanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Real professionals - got my Zappi EV charger installed and I am very happy with their work. Can recommend to others interested in electrical work. ThanksPosted on drifthertzTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had Carlin Co Electrical come out to our place in Hawthorn to install an EV charger for our new electric vehicle. Hamish and the team were fantastic, on time, explained the whole process including the load calculations for our switchboard and had everything done cleanly and safely. Really professional licensed electricians who clearly know what they’re doing. Would absolutely use Carlin Co again for any electrical work in Melbourne’s East, highly recommend for EV charger installation, switchboard upgrades or any residential electrical job.Posted on Nick MalzacherTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Can't recommend Hamish and his team any higher. Nothing is too hard and they completed all tasks without hassle and kept me informed throughout the process. If you have any electrical work that needs doing give these guys a call.Posted on Tony FTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The team at Carlin Co Electrical are fantastic. Easy to deal with friendly guys. Very fixed on details and making sure everything they install looks right. Focused on keeping everything clean and tidy. They manged to install all the fittings we required in a challenging apartment ceiling. We have peace of mind that all their electrical works are 100% compliant with regulations. Highly recommend Carlin Co.Posted on RubyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 5 star plus! Second time we engaged Hamish and his team at Carlin Co, after they installed some ceiling fans for us a few months ago. This time switchboard upgrade, meter relocation, disconnect/reconnect to 3 phase power, supply/install 3 split system air cons including removal of old boxed A/Cs and patch up of plaster and brick walls, garden sensor lights and pendant light installation. Hamish was very responsive, happy to discuss practical options of upgrade to accommodate future proofing, via emails and onsite. Detailed, prompt, clear quotes and explanation of work involved, taking into account our preferences with pros and cons, safety and compliance in mind. On the days of work, start early, very punctual, prepared and equipped, pleasant, tidy, efficient. Meticulous detailed planning and coordination ensure the upgrade and meter relocation meet safety and compliance expectations of PowerCor, reconnection to 3 phase power went without a hitch. Hamish was also able to accommodate prioritising supply and installation of our preferred A/Cs within a week of accepting the quote. They even salvaged the bricks from the meter relocation to patch up the hole in the brick wall after the old boxed air con was removed, can barely tell the wall is patched. Internal walls nicely repaired and sanded by plasterer. Within 24 hours, 3 working A/Cs, walls patched. Any issues that cropped up along the way were promptly and professionally addressed without issues. Thank you Hamish, Jackson, Howie, Ned, Ana and the team. They truly set themselves apart with their professional service, competitive quotes, detailed/prompt communication before and throughout the job, reliability, quality workmanship and accountability. Highly recommend and definitely our go to electrician for future sparky work!Posted on Julian RowellTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We were referred to Hamish and his Team during our renovations as we had had endless troubles with previous Electricians. From the moment we engaged them I knew they were a professional well run business from the booking process until they arrived I was updated with arrival times, I didn’t have a 4 hr window I knew when they would arrive and they were on time every time. It honestly felt like I had known the team forever, personable and communicative whilst delivering in a timely manner. On Completion of their works they would vacuum and clean up, removed shoes every time they entered our house and made sure before they left that our house was as clean as it was when they entered. I don’t write reviews but I thought it was important to let people know when you find not only a good tradesman and team but a group that actually care and enjoy what they do and it showed in their work. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Hamish and his team and wish them all the best Julian RowellPosted on BTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I've had a wonderful experience with Carlin Co Electrical. I urgently needed a new switchboard & a upgraded power point & Hamish was so easy to deal with & provided a quote very quickly. He also was very accommodating & booked the job right away. Ned came out to do the job & he was fantastic. It was not an easy job but Ned was very hard working, precise & did a lovely job. He even cleaned up afterwards! I am extremely grateful for Carlin Co's professional, prompt service, experience & excellent workmanship. I would 100% recommend them for all your electrical needs. They are definitely the only electricians I will call in future. Thanks again Hamish & Ned, much appreciated.
