24/7 Emergency Electrician Near You in Perth

Electrical emergency? Call (08) 6206 6899 now — we answer after hours, weekends and public holidays.

Power out at midnight. A burning smell from the switchboard. Sparks from a power point with kids in the house. When it’s a genuine electrical emergency, you need an emergency electrician near you who actually picks up the phone — not a call centre, and not a voicemail promising a callback tomorrow.

Bara Electrical runs a genuine 24/7 after hours service across the entire Perth metro area, from Yanchep to Mandurah. Our on-call electricians are local, licensed and equipped to make your property safe fast.

What Counts as an Electrical Emergency?

Call us immediately, any hour, if you’re experiencing:

Burning smells, smoke or scorch marks around your switchboard, power points or light fittings
Sparking or buzzing outlets, switches or appliances
Complete loss of power when your neighbours still have theirs (if the whole street is out, contact Western Power on 13 13 51)
RCD or safety switch that keeps tripping and won’t reset — this is your safety switch telling you something is wrong
Exposed or damaged wiring, including storm or water damage
Electric shocks or tingles from taps, appliances or switches — treat this as serious
Hot water failure where you can’t safely isolate the unit

While You Wait for Us

A few things you can do safely before we arrive:

If it’s safe to reach, switch off the main power at your switchboard.
Don’t touch anything that’s sparking, smoking or has shocked someone.
Unplug appliances in the affected area if the power is already off.
If anyone has received a serious electric shock, call 000 first. Then call us.
Keep everyone away from water near the affected area.

Our electrician will talk you through anything else specific to your situation when you call.

Fast Emergency Response Across Perth

We’re based centrally in Carlisle with electricians living and working across the metro area, so our after hours response times are genuinely fast. When you call (08) 6206 6899 after hours, you’ll speak to a person, get an honest ETA, and know the call out cost before we’re on the road.

Upfront After Hours Pricing

Nobody wants a surprise on top of an emergency. We’ll quote our after hours call out fee when you phone, and confirm the cost of the repair before work begins wherever possible. Emergency work is about making your property safe first — if a full repair is better done in daylight hours at standard rates, we’ll tell you, make it safe, and come back.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you really answer 24/7?

Yes — our after hours line is staffed every night, weekend and public holiday. Call (08) 6206 6899.

How much does an emergency electrician cost in Perth?

After hours call-outs carry a call out fee, which we’ll quote when you phone before dispatching anyone. Repair costs are confirmed before work starts wherever possible.

My safety switch keeps tripping - is that an emergency?

If it won’t reset, treat it as one. An RCD that keeps tripping is detecting a real fault — often a failing appliance or moisture in a circuit. Don’t keep forcing it back on; call us.

The whole street’s power is out - should I call you?

That’s a network outage — report it to Western Power on 13 13 51. If your place is the only one without power, that’s when you call us.

Do you handle emergency work for rentals and strata?

Yes, we do extensive real estate and strata maintenance work, and property managers can lodge urgent work orders through our office at workorders@baraelectrical.com.au.
