What We Do

Residential Electrical Across the Southern Peninsula

Licensed electrical work for Umina Beach and the surrounding coastal suburbs — from quick fixes to full rewires.

New switchboard with safety switches installed in an Umina Beach home

Switchboard Upgrades — Umina Beach

Salt air and decades of coastal weather are hard on older boards. If yours still runs ceramic fuses, trips for no reason, or won't take a solar or EV load, we replace it with a modern RCBO safety-switch board built to current Australian standards.

Home Rewiring & Wiring — Umina Beach

About Us

A Local Electrician Who Actually Picks Up the Phone

Zen is a licensed electrical team based on the Central Coast and run by Hannes. We do residential work right across the southern end of the peninsula — Umina Beach, Ettalong, Booker Bay, Pearl Beach and the surrounding streets — and the small jobs get the same care as the big ones.

With more than 10 years on the tools, there's not much in a coastal home we haven't already fixed — perished wiring, tired boards, salt-worn fittings — and we sort it properly rather than patching it. You get a clear quote up front, the same person on the job and on the phone, and no rotating subbies. Fully licensed, insured, and SAA accredited for solar, battery and EV work.

  • Same electrician start to finish — no subbies
  • Central Coast based, peninsula-savvy
  • Licensed & SAA-accredited (solar, battery, EV)
  • Clear quotes, tidy work, certificate of compliance
Good Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Which suburbs do you cover around Umina?
Umina Beach is one of our core areas, along with Ettalong, Booker Bay, Pearl Beach and the streets in between — plus the wider Central Coast. Big job or small, the quickest way to start is to tell us your suburb and what you need through the chat widget and we'll take it from there.
What does an electrician cost in Umina Beach?
It depends entirely on the job — a power point repair is a world away from a switchboard upgrade or a rewire, so we won't quote you blind. Smaller work is usually an hourly rate plus a call-out; larger jobs are fixed-price. Send us a description and a couple of photos and we'll give you a straight, free quote.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes — a current NSW electrical contractor licence and full public liability insurance, plus SAA accreditation for grid-connected solar and battery work. Any NSW licence can be checked on the NSW Fair Trading site, and we're happy to show ours before we start.
Does the salt air really affect my home's wiring?
It can. Coastal homes see more corrosion on outdoor fittings, switchboards and fixings than inland ones, and older boards near the water tend to age faster. It's worth having outdoor points, the board and any exposed gear checked periodically — we'll tell you honestly what needs attention and what's fine.
My switchboard still has ceramic fuses — is that a problem?
Almost certainly worth upgrading. Ceramic-fuse and bakelite boards have no safety switches, struggle with modern loads, and won't carry solar or an EV charger. If it trips often, smells hot, or your place predates the mid-90s, get it looked at — we'll say honestly whether it's urgent or can wait.
Do I legally need a licensed electrician in NSW?
Yes. All electrical work in NSW — from one power point to a full rewire — must be done by a licensed electrician. DIY or unlicensed work can void your insurance, create real danger, and lead to fines. For solar and battery work, look for SAA accreditation too, and always ask to see credentials first.
Do you do free quotes?
Yes — free and no-obligation for all residential work around Umina and the Coast. Smaller jobs we can often quote from a description and a few photos through chat; for bigger projects we'll arrange a free site visit and a fixed written quote before any work starts.
Can you rewire an older beach cottage without tearing the place apart?
Yes — that's the usual situation around here. We rewire in planned stages to keep disruption down, working through the points, lighting, smoke alarms and board, and finishing with a certificate of compliance. We'll map out what's urgent and what can be staged over time.
What size solar system suits a coastal home here?
That comes down to your usage, roof space, orientation and budget — your recent bills are the best starting point. Older and waterfront homes around Umina vary a lot, so we do a proper assessment and recommend a size that fits rather than pushing a set package.
Can I add a battery to solar I already have?
Usually, yes — it depends on your existing inverter and set-up. Some take a battery straight away; others need an inverter change first. A quick look at what you've got lets us recommend a battery that actually suits the system instead of guessing.
Can I charge an EV from my solar?
Yes, and it's one of the cheapest ways to run one. With solar and a compatible charger you top up from the roof during the day; add a battery and you can store the excess and charge from that in the evening rather than pulling from the grid.
What happens after I get in touch?
Reach us through the chat widget, phone or email and tell us what's going on. We'll quote on the spot for smaller work or book a free visit for bigger jobs, then lock in a date that suits you, show up when we said we would, do the work to standard, tidy up, and hand over a compliance certificate where one's needed.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes — our workmanship is guaranteed and any products we fit carry their manufacturer's warranty. If something isn't right, we come back and fix it. We run through the warranty details at quote stage so there are no surprises later.
Do you install CCTV and security cameras?
Yes — mostly hardwired systems, because they're more reliable and clearer than wireless. We mount the cameras, run the cabling, set up the recorder and get remote viewing working on your phone, for homes and small businesses across the peninsula.
Can you cable up a home office?
Yes. We install structured data cabling for home offices and whole-home networks — hardwired points are far steadier than WiFi — run neatly through the roof or wall cavities so you're not left with leads everywhere.
What should I look for in an electrician?
Check they hold a current NSW licence (verifiable on NSW Fair Trading), carry public liability insurance, and put quotes in writing first. For solar and battery work, confirm SAA accreditation. Beyond the paperwork, look for someone who communicates clearly, turns up when they say, and has solid local reviews.
