Electrical Services for Homes and Businesses in Templestowe
Electricians Servicing Templestowe
Bitz Electrical provides residential and commercial electrical services throughout Templestowe and Melbourne's north east.
Based just across the Yarra in Lower Plenty, we're true locals here, not a city-wide outfit covering Templestowe from a distance. Lower Plenty and Templestowe have been connected since the first bridge was built over the Yarra back in the 1850s, and that local connection still holds today. We regularly carry out switchboard upgrades, EV charger installations, LED downlight installation, CCTV and security camera systems, smoke alarms, fault finding and general electrical work for homeowners, landlords, builders and local businesses throughout the suburb.
Templestowe is known for its large blocks and established homes, many sitting on what was once orchard land before the area was subdivided, along with newer builds closer to Westerfolds Park and the Yarra. These bigger properties often call for additional circuits, outdoor and garden lighting, or a switchboard upgrade to safely support double garages, EV charging, air conditioning and home offices, alongside the area's renovations and new builds.
Whether you need LED downlights installed, a CCTV system set up or a complete switchboard replacement, our approach stays the same: clear advice, compliant electrical work, and a site left safe and tidy.
Led by licensed electrician Jonathan Bitzikopoulos, Bitz Electrical has built its reputation on quality workmanship, honest communication and reliable service. Working out of neighbouring Lower Plenty means we know Templestowe's streets, homes and electrical needs first-hand, not from a service area map.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Yes. Working out of neighbouring Lower Plenty, just across the Yarra, we regularly carry out residential and commercial electrical work throughout Templestowe, from general repairs and upgrades through to full switchboard replacements.
-
Being based so close by means we're not travelling across Melbourne to reach you. We can usually offer a same-day or next-day appointment depending on the job, and we'll always give you a clear timeframe when you call.
-
Many do. A lot of Templestowe properties sit on large blocks, some dating back to the area's orcharding days, and older switchboards in these homes often weren't built to handle modern loads like air conditioning, EV charging or home offices. We can assess your existing board and advise honestly on whether an upgrade is needed.
-
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. Bitz Electrical is run by Jonathan Bitzikopoulos, a licensed electrician with over 25 years experience in the trade, holding Registered Electrical Contractors Licence 31813. Every member of our team is fully licensed and insured for the work they carry out. -
Always. We provide a written quote before we start, with no variations on the day.
-
Yes. We install EV chargers for both new installations and upgrades to existing setups, including assessing whether your switchboard has the capacity to support one, which matters on Templestowe's larger blocks with double garages.
-
Yes. We install LED downlights for homes looking to replace old or inefficient lighting, including full room and whole-house upgrades.

Yes, alongside residential work we carry out electrical work for local businesses throughout the suburb.
-
A switchboard upgrade is often needed when your existing board can't safely handle modern demands like ducted air conditioning, EV charging, solar or a home office, which is common in Templestowe's larger, established homes. We can assess your current switchboard and give you an honest answer on whether an upgrade is needed, along with a written quote before any work starts.
