Frequently Asked Questions

Otter Air has developed a reputation amongst our clients as being honest, reliable, efficient and provide a professional service that delivers what we promise.

What is considered an electrical emergency?

Treat it as an emergency if you notice any of these: sparking outlets or switches, a burning or fishy smell, scorched or melting fittings, total power loss while your neighbours still have power, exposed or damaged live wiring, breakers that keep tripping and won't reset, or an electric shock or tingle off a tap or appliance. Any of these means there's a real risk of fire or shock — don't wait, call a licensed electrician.

What should I do in an electrical emergency?

If it's safe to reach, turn the power off at your main switch on the switchboard. Don't touch anything wet or anything that's live, keep yourself and everyone else well clear of the area, and don't try to fix it yourself. Then call a licensed electrician. If someone has been shocked, there's a fire, or there's immediate danger, call 000 first.

How much does an emergency electrician cost?

We give you an upfront price before any work starts, so you know the cost before we begin, with no hidden extras. The exact figure depends on the fault and what it takes to make it safe and repair it; we'll explain it in plain English first. Honest pricing, no pressure.

How fast can you get to me?

We prioritise emergencies and aim to have a licensed electrician to you as quickly as we can — often within hours, depending on your suburb and how busy the day is. Call 0434 951 341 and we'll give you a realistic time when you ring, not a vague promise.

Are you available after hours and on weekends?

Yes. We're a Perth-based emergency electrical team and take urgent calls outside normal hours and on weekends. If something can't safely wait until Monday, give us a ring and we'll help you make it safe.

Do you charge a call-out fee?

You'll always get an upfront price before any work begins, so there are never surprises. The only time an attendance fee applies on its own is a diagnostic callout where there turns out to be no fault to repair, which covers our time and travel to site.

Where do most electrical faults come from?

A lot of household faults trace back to the switchboard — a failed safety switch, an overloaded or ageing board, or a circuit that keeps tripping. We diagnose the fault on site and, if your board is the cause, talk you through a switchboard repair or upgrade. For non-urgent jobs, see our full electrical services.
