Hi, I'm Jess. Tell me what's going wrong at home today.
Load-shedding surges have already killed my TV and my gate motor. How do I stop this?
You're not imagining it, the surge when power returns is the killer. An electrician can fit surge arrestors at your DB and check your earthing, which does most of the protective work. Let's get a vetted electrician to set that up before the next outage cycle.

Frequently asked questions 👇

What should I budget for an electrician in Johannesburg?

Most jobs start with a call-out fee from around R450, which covers the Pro's travel and time to assess and quote. If you choose not to proceed, that's all you pay. Standard repairs and fault finding typically come in at about R750 including the first hour of labour, with additional time at around R550 per hour, plus materials. Installations are usually flat-priced, from roughly R950 (stove, oven or UPS) up to about R3,950 (inverter and battery systems), while an Electrical CoC generally costs R950 (single phase) or R1,650 (three phase). These are estimates, and your Pro confirms the exact price upfront.

Load-shedding wrecked my appliances and gate motor, can an electrician help prevent this?

Yes, power surges when the grid returns are a known killer of electronics. An electrician can fit surge protection at your DB, check your earthing, and set up an inverter or UPS so sensitive equipment rides through outages entirely. Repairs to damaged circuits and gate motors are among the most common Joburg call-outs.

How does emergency electrician pricing work in Johannesburg?

They do. Plenty of pros on Kandua in Johannesburg handle after-hours and weekend call-outs. As a guide, emergency and after-hours work usually runs at about 1.5–2× the standard labour rate, so it's worth confirming the rate and what counts as after-hours with your Pro upfront.

How does Kandua vet the electricians it recommends in Johannesburg?

Every pro on Kandua is vetted before they can quote on jobs, and their reviews come from verified customers in and around Johannesburg, not anonymous ratings. Jess, Kandua's AI home companion, also helps you scope the job properly first, so you're matched with an electrician who actually does that type of work.

How much does it cost to hire an Electrician in Johannesburg?

If you're budgeting for an electrician in Johannesburg, these guide rates will help. A call-out fee typically starts from around R450, covering the Pro's travel and time to assess and quote. Everyday repairs and fault finding usually start at about R750 including the first hour of labour, with additional time at around R550 per hour. Installations tend to be flat-priced, at roughly R950 for a stove, oven or UPS install and up to about R3,950 for an inverter and battery system, and an Electrical CoC generally costs R950 (single phase) or R1,650 (three phase). Treat these as estimates: materials are quoted separately, and your Pro confirms the exact price before any work starts.
