Character villas, Fullarton Road units and everything in between — quoted honestly, done by the owner.
I'm Marcus, the owner-operator behind Amped Up Electrical Adelaide, working out of Vale Park. Fullarton sits south-east of the city along Fullarton Road, one of Adelaide's main arterial roads, and it's a suburb of real contrast: established stone-fronted villas and 1930s bungalows on the quieter residential streets, sitting alongside unit blocks and townhouses that have gone up more recently along and just off the main road.
That mix means the electrical work varies a lot from one Fullarton job to the next. An older character home here often still runs on an early switchboard with no individual circuit protection, while a unit a few doors down might just need extra power points, a fault chased down, or a straightforward safety upgrade. I quote both the same way — I have a proper look, explain what's actually going on, and give you a fixed price before anything is switched off.
Because I run the business myself, you're not dealing with a call centre or a rotating crew — the person who quotes the job is the same person doing the work and signing off the testing. Call 0468 008 822 and you'll be talking to me directly.
Between the older villas and the newer units along Fullarton Road, this is the work that actually comes up:
In June 2026 I took an emergency call-out on Seaview Street — a leaking gas hot water system had developed an electrical fault. My first job was to make the property electrically safe: I isolated and disconnected the affected unit so the plumber could replace the hot water system without any risk from the fault it had caused. Once the new unit was in, I checked the connection and confirmed the circuit was safe before signing off.
It's a good example of the kind of split-trade emergency that comes up more than people expect in Fullarton's mix of units and older homes — when a hot water system, an appliance or a fixture fails and takes the electrics with it, the priority is making it safe first and sorting the rest second. That's the same approach I bring to every Fullarton emergency call-out, whether it's a leaking hot water system, a tripped board or something sparking that shouldn't be.
Every installation is owner-operated by Marcus. Clean work, quality components, compliant installations.
Marcus films real jobs and callouts on the tools — no actors, no stock footage. This is what the work actually looks like.
Fullarton's older villas can still be running on early switchboards with no safety-switch protection, and in units and townhouses a failed hot water system or appliance can take a circuit down with it. If the power's out, a safety switch won't reset, or something smells hot, that's an emergency call — not a wait-till-Monday job.

I personally handle every job from quote to completion. No subcontractors, no apprentices unsupervised. When you call, you speak to me. When I arrive in Fullarton, it's me doing the work.

Ceramic fuses aren't automatically illegal, but they give none of the protection a modern safety switch does. I regularly upgrade older Fullarton switchboards to a modern board with individual RCBOs on every circuit — it's one of the most worthwhile upgrades an older home can get.
Yes. Fullarton has a real mix of housing, and I quote units, townhouses and character villas the same way — a proper look at the job, then a fixed price before anything starts.
Often, yes — it depends on the existing switchboard's capacity and how the cable can run to the carport or garage. I check both on site and quote accordingly.
Switchboard upgrades and safety switch installation on the older villas, fault finding and hot water electrical on units and townhouses, plus the usual extra power points, lighting upgrades and renovation circuits.
Fullarton borders several suburbs I look after regularly. If you're just over the border, here's where else I work:
