Many Caloundra properties built in the 90s and 2000s still have old halogen downlights and outdated smoke alarms. We see this constantly across the area — and it's a fire hazard worth fixing. Ask us about a free check.

Old Halogens & Outdated Smoke
Alarms — We See This Constantly
in Caloundra Homes

A large portion of Caloundra's housing stock was built between the late 1980s and early 2010s — exactly the era when halogen downlights were standard and smoke alarms were a single ionisation unit in the hallway. It's one of the most common things we find when we visit a Caloundra home for the first time.

🌡️
Halogen Downlights — Still in Most Older Caloundra Homes
Halogen globes run at 260–300°C. When roof insulation, dust or debris sits against the fitting, it can smoulder without you knowing. Swapping the globe to LED isn't a fix — the fitting itself needs replacing with a sealed, fire-rated LED downlight. We do these all day across Caloundra.
⚠️ Common in pre-2010 Caloundra homes
🔔
Outdated Smoke Alarms — Queensland Law Has Changed
Queensland now requires photoelectric, interconnected smoke alarms in every bedroom, hallway and storey by 1 January 2027 — and since 2022 for any home being sold or rented. Most Caloundra homes we inspect still have old ionisation alarms or battery units that don't meet the new standard.
📋 2027 compliance deadline — all QLD homes
IC-rated LED downlight installation — fire-safe lighting upgrade
Switchboard & Safety Switch Checks

Older Caloundra homes often have switchboards without safety switches (RCDs). We find this alongside the halogen and smoke alarm issues in the same visit — and sort all three at once.

We fix all three in one visit

What Caloundra Homeowners Say

★★★★★

"Called Pip about a tripping circuit and he was at our Caloundra home the same morning. Diagnosed the fault quickly, gave us a clear price and had it fixed within the hour. Wouldn't use anyone else."

★★★★★

"We'd had halogen downlights in our home since it was built in 2003. Pip came out, showed us the issue with the insulation clearance, and replaced all 16 fittings with fire-rated LEDs. Quick, clean, and the lighting looks far better too."

★★★★★

"Needed compliant smoke alarms for our Caloundra rental before the new lease started. Pip came out within 48 hours, replaced all alarms with interconnected photoelectric units and sent us the compliance paperwork. Couldn't have been easier."

★★★★★

"Installed two split systems before summer. Showed up when he said he would, the install was neat and he tested everything before he left. Very fairly priced for Caloundra. Will absolutely use again."

★★★★★

"Had a full safety inspection done on our 1990s Caloundra home before selling. Found the old switchboard didn't have safety switches and our smoke alarms were non-compliant. Pip sorted everything in one visit and we sailed through settlement."

★★★★★

"Emergency at 9pm — lost power to half the house. Pip answered straight away, was with us within the hour and had it sorted before 11pm. Lifesaver. This is the kind of electrician you want to have in your contacts for Caloundra."
