Howard's Local Electricians
Howard is a small township between Hervey Bay and Childers — modest housing, rural surrounds and electrical work that benefits from being scheduled together with neighbouring properties. Our Sparky covers Howard from our Hervey Bay base — same licensed electricians (LIC1509719), same standard of work, no separate travel surcharge for the trip.
Rural and acreage properties often have three-phase supply, separate sheds with their own circuits, and longer cable runs than typical suburban homes. We design for the whole property — house, shed, water pump, dam circuits, security lighting — in one coordinated visit.
Whatever the job — emergency fault, switchboard upgrade, full house rewire, smoke alarm compliance, hot water replacement, air conditioning install, lighting refresh, ceiling fan installation, security camera or smart-home retrofit — we handle it from our Hervey Bay base. Most quotes are free, fixed-price after a site visit and we never start a job without you knowing the full cost upfront.
