Who we are

An electrical contractor that grew into an electrification company

Powerband Electrical started as a Melbourne electrical contractor more than 15 years ago, doing the everyday work: switchboards, wiring, lighting, fit-outs. As solar took off we added it. As customers asked us to get rid of their gas heating and hot water, we added refrigeration and plumbing. Somewhere along the way the business stopped being an electrician who also does solar and became a company whose job is taking homes off gas entirely.

Today that is what we do, from a base in Somerville on the Mornington Peninsula, for homes and businesses across Melbourne. Solar and batteries, ducted reverse cycle, heat pump hot water, induction, EV charging and the electrical work that ties it together, designed as one system and installed by our own people. Tim Davies runs it as Director, and the crews you see in the photos are the ones who turn up.

How we work

Four things we do on every job

Not values on a poster. The things customers mention in reviews and the things Tim checks on.

01
Every trade in-house

Electricians, refrigeration technicians, plumbers and solar installers, all employed by Powerband. One crew turns up, one company is accountable, and nothing falls between two contractors.

02
Honest advice, including no

If a smaller system is the right answer, or a cheaper unit, or waiting until the gas heater actually dies, we say so. We would rather be the company you call back than the one that oversold you once.

03
Rebates done properly

VEU, Solar Victoria, STCs and the federal battery discount are applied on the quote and lodged by us. You see the after-rebate price before you decide anything.

04
Leave it cleaner than we found it

Drop sheets, vacuumed, old units removed, controls explained. It is in most of our reviews for a reason.

The whole experience of working with Powerband has been fantastic. From the get go they were helpful with the design, requirements and answering all the questions we had about the install. We couldn't be happier with choosing them for the job. Special thanks to Bailey and the team for getting the entire installation done in one day it was a huge job so for it to be done and to such a high standard is much appreciated Thanks everyone at Powerband for all you've done

We have just had a Braemer Dominator reverse cycle ducted system installed by the Powerband Electrical team to replace our gas-fired system. We were very happy with the whole process, from the sales/design discussions with Dayle to the installation by the team led by Julian and including Logan and Darren. Using the existing ducting had its challenges but the team overcame them well. Julian set up the AirTouch5 control system & zoning with us and with a sudden cold snap arriving it has proven simple to use to create a comfortable environment. In fact we are already finding it far more effective system than the considerably larger gas unit and a more uniform heat with less draughts. Thanks to the Powerband team. Ken in Glen Waverley

Petris and his electrical team did 2 inverter airconditioner installs as part of our whole solar system install. Great workers, good thinkers who could sort out a couple of small issues in short order and wonderful people to have around our house. Organised and professional. Highly recommend Powerband.

Had the Powerband team electrify out whole house. Updated the heating / cooling with split systems, replace gas cooktop & hot water and put solar on with a 30kw battery. No gas bill, solar is producing more energy than we consume. These days we barely even have the supply charge. As part of it, they put the package together of what we wanted and needed to future proof our house and showed us several options for paying for it, in the end we opted for a 5-year interest free loan. Looking at our numbers, most of the loan will be paid off from the savings from our gas and electricity savings. All the work and upgrades done and barely any out of pocket cost, nice.... The team were great - worked in with timing for the jobs when it worked for us. The boys on site were all great, friendly, polite and professional. Did the job well and packed up (and cleaned up) well. Happy to recommend Powerband to anyone wanting to electrify their house in a cost-effective way.
