Excellent work completed by the CMC Team. From my initial enquiry to completion, it has been both a responsive and seamless process. Super impressed with the amount of care shown in the placement of the lights. I have nothing but good things to say about this team.

I cannot recommend these guys more highly due to their friendly, professional and affordable service. We recently moved into an older house and because of some electrical issues in a couple of rooms, I asked them to check over the wiring and replace some of the power switches and lights. They sorted out all the wiring with no hassles at all. We have 4 indoor pets which can be challenging when you have tradies over walking in out of doors, but they were really friendly with the pets and made sure there were no escapees. It’s great to receive good old fashioned honest service these days and I have already booked them in again to get more work done. Spot on work guys..

Excellent service from start to finish. The pricing was very reasonable, they arrived on time, were friendly and professional, and left everything clean and tidy afterwards.

They installed my pendant lights exactly how I wanted them, added a dimmer beside my bed, and even thoughtfully changed the main light switch to make everything more convenient and practical. The attention to detail was really appreciated.

They even repaired my smoke alarm which he noticed was not working well. Very nice.

Very happy with the result — five stars and highly recommended.

I had an excellent experience with CMC Electrical and communications. I only called yesterday to request an urgent visit, and they arrived within 24 hours, which I really appreciated.

The technicians were very helpful, professional, and went above and beyond to get everything sorted. They were also very understanding and sensitive to my situation, which made the whole process much less stressful.

I’m extremely grateful for their prompt response and high level of service. I would definitely recommend CMC Electrical and communications to anyone needing reliable and compassionate electrical work.

Tony and Jasper from CMC Electrical were fantastic to deal with. They were very professional throughout the entire job and took the time to clearly explain what they were doing at each step. It made us feel confident and well-informed the whole way through.

Their workmanship was excellent, and they showed great attention to detail. It’s always reassuring to have tradespeople who are not only skilled but also communicate so well. Highly recommend Tony and Jasper for anyone needing reliable and professional electrical work.

We had a brilliant experience with Ciaran and his team at CMC Electrical. We made a request at short notice for the work to be completed on Thursday, the day before Easter and he came through with a great outcome. Lachie, the young electrician that completed the work did a great job in a timely and efficient manner. We’ll certainly be calling them again for any further work. Thanks guys, Michael and Joanne

CMC electrical installed my Mitsubishi Air-conditioner today.
The price was excellent and the service was great. The two installers that came to my house knew exactly what they were doing and cleaned up after them. I would thoroughly recommend this company to anyone considering putting in an air-conditioner. I live in Cleveland. And I wish their company all the best.
Thank you, Margaret Watson.

I had a challenging conduit install and the guys did a great job. When there was a subsequent fibre issue that the telco technician was unable to fix, Cam was able to come out straight away and was sorted very quickly. Happy to recommend.

Packed up all the old fans very neatly and put everything in the garage for ease of putting into my car for disposal.
Thanks Tony for a great job

I had a great experience with CMC Electrical. Good communication and the electrician was prompt and completed the job to a high standard. We had a new oven installed and removal of an old air conditioning unit with no issues at all.

Very professional and easy to deal with throughout the whole process. Everything was left neat and tidy once the job was done.

CMC was recommended to me by word of mouth and I will definitely be passing on the recommendation to anyone looking for a reliable and skilled electrician. Thank you to Ciaran and his team 🙂

Cam and the team are absolutely amazing. They’re always quick to respond, super friendly, and really know what they’re doing. Their pricing is very reasonable, and the quality of their work has been great every time. We’ve had them complete a few jobs for us now and have been impressed each time, so we’ll definitely continue using them and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to others.

We lost all power in the night and we posted on Facebook asking for local electrician recommendations. Ciaran responded to one of our posts saying he could help. He made time to come see us first thing in the morning to get us going again, and at a very reasonable price. We are so grateful and will be using CMC for all our future electrical work.

CMC Electrical/Ciaran was professional and great to deal with. Job was to replace and instal new power lines to house, alot of obstacles/complications to overcome and CMC changed/adapted as needed, followed up with everybody required with great communication and got the job done. Very reasonable/competitive prices and excellent work and service. The team arrived on time and did a great job with an excellent outcome and price.

After a power outage blew the fuse for our only air con 2 days before Christmas I reached out to CMC who came next day (Christmas Eve). They not only managed to get the 20 year old air con up and running, ensuring the family would be cool and comfortable during this hot and muggy holiday period but they also gave a little more life to an old air con saving us expensive replacement costs for a little while longer. Incredible service, thanks so much CMC!

Tired of wondering if your Smoke Alarms are Safe & Compliant?

You’ve heard QLD smoke alarm laws changed.

You’re not sure if your house is compliant.

You’re definitely not sure who to call about it.

Sound familiar?

Most Redlands & Brisbane homeowners are in exactly the same boat. The laws are confusing. The information online contradicts itself. And every sparky tells you something different.

Our guarantee is that we answer the phone. We show up in the window we give you. We tell you the price before we touch anything. And we don’t leave until every alarm in your home is properly certified , interconnected, photoelectric & Installed in a compliant location, exactly where QLD law requires them.

We take the confusion out of smoke alarm installations, all you need to know is that your home is safe, we guarantee it.

From Compliance Certification to Brand New Smoke Alarm Installations Redlands Locals Trust CMC

Whether you need one alarm replaced or every alarm in the house installed and certified, CMC has the expertise and knowledge to ensure that everything is in line with the current legislation.

Sure, most electricians can install a smoke alarm, BUT do they know the installation distances from walls, fans, bedrooms etc.

Do they use reliable brands? or will you be left with a smoke alarm system that goes off at 3 am for no reason?

Do they provide and fill out the proper paper work to ensure your house is insured at the end of the installation.

Look, we don’t know if they do, all we know is that We Do

Smoke Alarm Compliance

QLD's smoke alarm laws have changed and most homes are non-compliant and don't know it.

One call to us to get the ball rolling and your home will be safe and compliant. Photoelectric, interconnected, 10-year Warranty on all smoke alarms, we properly certify them and you can rest easy knowing you and your family are safe.

Smoke Alarm Replacement & Installation

Old alarms chirping at 3am? Battery dead? We replace dead and end-of-life alarms in one visit — and check the rest of the house while we're there.

Switchboard Upgrades

If your board is old, it's not just inconvenient — it's a liability. We upgrade switchboards and fit safety switches that protect your home and your family.

Yes. Every install meets QLD’s current legislation — interconnected photoelectric alarms, 10-year sealed batteries, installed in every bedroom and connecting hallway. We provide a compliance certificate at the end of the job so you’ve got proof in writing.

Absolutely. If something isn’t right after we’ve completed a job, we come back and fix it at no charge. No arguments, no excuses. We don’t consider a job finished until you’re satisfied it’s been done properly.
