Electrician for New Builds and Renovations on the Gold Coast
On time. On spec. Every stage of the build.
FitElec provides electrical services for new residential construction and renovations across the Gold Coast. We work from first-fix rough-in through to fit-off and final inspection, co-ordinating with builders, project managers and other trades to keep your project on schedule. Whether it's a knockdown-rebuild, a new Burleigh Waters home or a full kitchen and bathroom renovation, we plan the electrical around your project from day one.
What we offer
- First-fix rough-in — Conduit, cable and back-boxes installed in the frame stage before plasterboard goes on, positioned to the plans and builder requirements.
- Second-fix fit-off — Outlets, switches, light fittings, switchboard, safety switches and all accessories fitted and connected at the completion stage.
- Final inspection and certificate — Full electrical testing and Certificate of Compliance issued for building completion and council sign-off.
- Renovation electrical — Partial rewires, new circuits, additional points and lighting upgrades as part of kitchen, bathroom, extension or whole-house renovations.
- Solar and battery pre-wire — Future-proofing your new build with conduit and cabling for solar, battery storage and EV charging installed during construction at minimal additional cost.
- Outdoor and entertainment wiring — Alfresco areas, pool equipment circuits, outdoor power, security lighting and garden feature lighting specified and installed at the build stage.
Why choose FitElec
- We work around your timeline — Construction projects are schedule-driven. We commit to stage completion dates and communicate early if anything changes.
- Experienced with Gold Coast builds — We understand local building styles, council requirements and the climate considerations that affect electrical placement and specification.
- Direct communication — You deal with Jayson directly, not a call centre. Questions are answered quickly and decisions don't get lost in a chain of subcontractors.
- Included in the quote — We provide a fixed-price quote per stage so your build budget is accurate. Additional variations are agreed before work starts, never after.
- One electrical contractor throughout — Using FitElec from rough-in to fit-off means continuity. We know where every cable runs and can solve issues quickly without finger-pointing between contractors.

- Testing and certification: Full electrical test, Certificate of Compliance issued and all documentation provided for the building certifier.
Frequently asked questions
- Do you work directly with builders?
- Yes. We work with owner-builders and licensed builders throughout the Gold Coast and are used to attending site on the builder's schedule.
- Can you quote from plans before construction starts?
- Yes. A plans-based quote gives you a firm electrical budget for your build. We review the plans, ask questions about any special requirements and provide a fixed-price per stage.
- What if I want to add solar or a battery to my new build?
- Pre-wiring during construction is far more cost-effective than retrofitting later. We include solar and battery conduit in new builds at the rough-in stage for minimal additional cost.
- Can you help with the electrical specification if I don't have plans yet?
- Yes. We can guide you on outlet counts, lighting design, switchboard sizing and future-proofing options before plans are finalised.
- Do you do partial renovations, or only new builds?
- Both. Renovations make up a significant part of our work. Whether it's a single room or a full house renovation, we quote and complete the electrical as part of your broader project.
