Powered by Robert is one electrician's name on the work

The idea

Electrical work done carefully, for people who live there

Powered by Robert was built around a simple idea: electrical work should be done carefully, professionally, and with respect for the customer's home or business.

That shows up in small things. Diagnosing a fault instead of replacing parts until something works. Explaining a problem in the language of the room - the kitchen circuit, the garage feed - rather than in code references. Cutting an opening once, at the right size, and cleaning up afterwards.

It also shows up in what the business does not do. Powered by Robert is an electrical business, not a general handyman service with a van full of unrelated tools. Panels, circuits, lighting, chargers and safety devices are the work. Focus is what keeps a trade sharp.

How the work is approached

• Find the cause before quoting the fix - testing beats guessing.
• Explain what is involved, including when the honest answer is "not yet".
• Plan the cable run before the first opening is cut.
• Size circuits for what they will actually carry, not just what is plugged in today.
• Leave a panel that is labelled, a work area that is clean, and questions answered.
