Need an electrician in Evans Head?
Evans Head is a coastal village at the mouth of the Evans River, within the Richmond Valley Council area, and that position shapes much of the electrical work here. Salt air off the beach and river is hard on anything metal outside the house.
Meter boxes, outdoor power points, light fittings and the hardware at the point of attachment can corrode faster than they would inland. Corrosion at the supply connection is network-side work, so it needs a Level 2 electrician.
The housing mix is unusual for a small town. The 2021 Census counted 2,907 residents in Evans Head, and 34.3% of occupied homes were semi-detached, terrace or townhouse style, against 11.7% across NSW. Attached homes can share a meter panel, so we confirm which board feeds which dwelling before any work starts.
Renters make up 37.4% of households, and 18.2% of private dwellings were empty on Census night, close to double the NSW rate of 9.4%, a pattern typical of a holiday town. For landlords and property managers, that puts smoke alarm compliance and safety checks between tenancies high on the list, along with arranging access when nobody is home.

Electric East Electricians is accredited by Essential Energy as a Level 2 ASP, so work on both sides of the meter is handled through one booking with one business. A corroded service connection or a board needing a supply upgrade does not need a second contractor.

Our Level 2 ASP electrical services cover metering, overhead and underground service mains, consumer mains, points of attachment and new connections.
Replace ageing fuse boards with modern safety switches and circuit protection through our switchboard upgrade service. If supply-side work is also required, our Level 2 ASP team can handle it.

Electric East Electricians Covers Evans Head and the Richmond Valley Coast.
Straightforward electrical work, such as installing an additional power point, can often be quoted over the phone. Larger or more involved jobs, including switchboard upgrades, rewiring, supply upgrades and defect rectification, usually require an on-site assessment. The existing switchboard, number of circuits and condition of the incoming supply can all affect the work required.
If network-side work is involved, we manage the Essential Energy application and coordinate the required timing. You’ll receive a clear scope and written price before work begins. Property owners who live outside Evans Head can also review and approve the work by phone or email.

I recently had a few electrical jobs done around the house, including installing ceiling fans and new lights, repairing my solar system, and a few others. Everything was completed without any issues, and I'm really happy with how it all turned out. Communication was easy, the work was done neatly, and it was clear he takes pride in what he does. It's nice to have someone who turns up when they say they will and gets the job done properly. I'd happily recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable electrician, and I'll definitely be using him again in the future.
