What to check when hiring electricians in Johannesburg

MyTrustedTraders ranks on independent public evidence. No ads, no paid placement. Use these checks alongside the evidence on each profile before you decide who to contact.

  • In South Africa, electrical work must be signed off with a Certificate of Compliance (CoC) issued by a registered person. Insist on the CoC, and for plumbing look for PIRB or IOPSA registration, because without a valid CoC a future home-insurance claim can be refused.
  • For a new home or major structural build, the builder must be registered with the NHBRC (National Home Builders Registration Council) and the home enrolled before construction. Check this before you pay a deposit.
  • Look for consistent reviews across several named sources, not one polished profile.
  • Check any credential evidence, and that the business details independently check out.
  • Get a written quote and keep guarantee, insurance and payment terms in writing.
