After hours · Dungog, Gresford & the Hunter
After-hours and emergency call-outs.
Some faults can wait until Monday. A board that won't reset with a freezer full of meat, a burning smell near a switch, a pump down in the middle of a dry spell, or a house with no power and kids in it can't. Kayden takes after-hours and emergency calls across the district.

we take after-hours and emergency electrical calls across Dungog, Gresford and the Hunter for burning smells, sparking, boards that won't reset, storm damage and essential equipment down. A call-out fee applies after hours: ask when you call and Kayden will tell you what it is.

A call-out fee applies after hours: ask when you call and Kayden will tell you what it is. Ring the number, say where you are and what's happening, and he'll tell you straight whether it's an emergency, whether there's something safe you can do right now, and when he can be there.
