Caloundra and the southern coast

Caloundra has a lot of units, holiday lets and rentals, which means a lot of smoke alarm compliance work: every rental has needed interconnected photoelectric alarms since 2022, and owner-occupied homes join them from 1 January 2027. We check, install and issue the compliance certificate in one visit.

Beyond that it is the usual coastal mix: ceiling fans, outdoor lighting that can handle the salt air, extra power points, and switchboards in the older brick homes that were never fitted with safety switches. We cover Caloundra, Golden Beach, Pelican Waters, Currimundi and Kawana.

Common jobs we get asked for

  • Smoke alarm compliance for rentals, sales and holiday lets
  • Ceiling fans and outdoor fans
  • Outdoor lighting rated for coastal conditions
  • Safety switches and switchboard upgrades
  • Extra power points and USB outlets in units
  • Fault finding and repairs
New rules by 1 January 2027

Every Queensland home needs interconnected photoelectric smoke alarms.

In every bedroom, the hallways that connect them, and on every storey. Older ionisation alarms and removable-battery units won't meet the standard. Jarid can check what you've got, supply what's missing and issue your compliance certificate.

Common questions

I manage a rental in Caloundra, can you do the smoke alarm check and certificate?

Yes. We test the alarms, replace anything that does not meet the standard, confirm the interconnection and issue a compliance certificate you can keep on file for the property. Property managers are welcome to get in touch about regular checks across several properties.

Do you work in unit complexes and body corporate buildings?

Yes, inside the unit itself. Anything in the common property or the main switchroom usually goes through the body corporate, and we can point you in the right direction if that is what you are dealing with.
