Strata Electrical Specialists
Trusted by Melbourne Body Corporates
Managing Melbourne electrical services across multiple properties demands more than just technical expertise - it requires understanding of strata regulations, insurance requirements, and the delicate balance between resident satisfaction and budget constraints. Lexity has been the preferred electrical contractor for Melbourne body corporates and property managers for over a decade. We’re fully licensed (REC 26011), carry comprehensive public liability insurance, and understand the unique demands of strata electrical work. From emergency callouts to planned maintenance programs, we deliver consistent, professional service that keeps residents safe and committees satisfied. Our transparent reporting, competitive strata rates, and 24/7 availability make us the logical choice for body corporates seeking a genuine strata compliance partner rather than just another contractor.
Compliance and Safety
Meeting Strict Strata Standards
Strata properties face stringent electrical compliance requirements that go beyond standard residential rules. Essential Safety Measures (ESM) reports demand annual testing of emergency lighting and exit signs. Common area lighting must meet AS/NZS 1680 standards for safety and accessibility. Switchboards require regular thermal imaging to prevent fires that could affect multiple residences. We maintain detailed compliance records for every property, providing certificates and reports that satisfy insurers, councils, and regulatory bodies. Our proactive approach identifies potential issues before they become expensive problems or compliance failures that could leave body corporates liable.
Common Area Maintenance
Keeping Shared Spaces Safe and Functional
Common areas are the face of your property - poorly maintained lighting in car parks creates security concerns, while flickering stairwell lights frustrate residents daily. We provide comprehensive common area electrical services, from LED lighting upgrades that slash power bills to security system maintenance that keeps properties safe. Our electricians understand that work in common areas must minimise resident disruption. We schedule strategically, communicate clearly with property managers, and complete work efficiently. Whether it’s installing sensor lighting to reduce energy waste or upgrading old switchboards to modern safety standards, we treat every strata property with the same care we’d want for our own homes.
Emergency Response
24/7 Support for Strata Properties
Electrical emergencies in strata properties can affect dozens of families simultaneously. When a switchboard fails on a 40-degree day, leaving an entire building without air conditioning, you need electricians who understand the urgency and have the capability to respond. Our 24/7 emergency electrical service prioritises strata properties, with electricians arriving quickly in fully stocked vehicles. We maintain detailed records of every property we service, allowing rapid diagnosis and repair. Our after-hours rates remain reasonable because we believe emergency service shouldn’t mean emergency pricing. Property managers have our direct contact details, ensuring immediate response when residents need it most.
