Luke did a great job and was very flexible and understanding of our needs. He listened and was very helpful in explaining answers to our questions. I would highly recommend his work.
Luke was on time, considerate upon entering the house, and has a pleasant, friendly manner. He also gave excellent advice and suggestions/options for solving the problem, without "pushing" for one or the other. NEXTPOINT Electrics is to be highly recommended.
Luke at NextPoint was fantastic. Arrived on time both times he's done work, texted first to say he was on his way. Very quick, efficient and tidy with both jobs and a great guy to deal with. Highly recommend and will definitely use him again.
Luke was super efficient and communication on point. Came around the next day to quote for all ceiling fans replaced and was all done in less than a week. Highly recommend Luke and Nextpoint Electrics!
Absolutely terrific to work with. Luke’s professional manner coupled with friendliness, all the while keeping us updated on progress. Have no hesitation in recommending Luke.
Really impressed with Nextpoint Electrics! Friendly, professional, and got the job done promptly. Highly recommend for anyone needing an electrician you can trust.
On the Bellarine, not driving down for it
Barwon Heads sits on the west bank of the mouth of the Barwon River, joined to Ocean Grove by the bridge and about 20 km south of Geelong. We are based in Ocean Grove, which is the other end of the bridge, so Barwon Heads is about as short a drive as we make.
We cover the whole of 3227, and Ocean Grove, Wallington, Marcus Hill and the rest of the Bellarine with it.
No call out fee, a fixed price agreed before anything starts, and a lifetime workmanship warranty. REC 346464.
What can we help with?

Got questions? We have answers
Yes. We are based in Ocean Grove, which is the other end of the bridge, so Barwon Heads is about as short a drive as we make. There is no call out fee and no distance loading.
All of it, the whole 3227 postcode, and the neighbouring towns with it. Nowhere in Barwon Heads is far enough from us to be worth charging you extra for.
We are based in Ocean Grove, which is the other end of the bridge, so Barwon Heads is about as short a drive as we make. We do not promise a set response time, but you get a straight answer on the phone and a time on the day rather than an all day window.
Outside, yes. Barwon Heads catches it from two directions, off the surf beach and up the river mouth, so even places a few streets back are in it. Salt corrodes metal and it does not need to be sea spray to do it: outdoor power points, light fittings, switchboard enclosures and the screws holding them up all age faster here than they do inland. What fails is usually the fixing or the seal rather than the fitting itself.

Barwon Heads sits on the west bank of the Barwon River mouth, joined to Ocean Grove by the bridge and facing Bass Strait beyond it. It started as a fishing village, became a holiday town when Melbourne families began building here between the wars, and changed again after SeaChange was filmed in the town in the late nineties.
That history is written into the housing. Original beach houses and weatherboard cottages near the river, a long middle layer of holiday places that were later lived in year round, and newer building at the edges. A cottage that was a summer house for forty years often has wiring that was only ever asked to run a fridge and a couple of lamps.
The other thing about a river mouth and a surf beach on the same town is exposure. Anything mounted outside sits in salt air all year, so outdoor points, garden lighting, meter boxes and switchboard enclosures get specified for that rather than treated as an afterthought. What fails is usually the fixing or the seal rather than the fitting itself.
What that means in practice is that the two halves of Barwon Heads need different conversations. Near the river and the old golf course, the question is usually what is actually in the walls and whether the board has anything spare on it. On the newer blocks it is capacity: what the board will carry before a charger or a second split system goes on.
The other thing worth saying about a town this size is that everyone uses the same few trades. We are on the other side of the bridge rather than driving down from Melbourne for the day, so a callback is a callback rather than a scheduling problem.
