The BH Electrics team outside the Craiglie workshop

What people say

Five stars on Google

Every review on our listing is a five. Behind that rating sits every job we have done in the Douglas Shire since 2007, which is the number we would rather be judged on.

The record

Five stars, and 42,646 jobs behind it

Our Google rating is 5.0 out of 5. Not an average that happens to round up: every review on the listing is a five star review.

Behind that rating is the whole trading history. BH Electrics has been on the tools in the Douglas Shire since 2007, and in that time we have completed 42,646 jobs, counted August 2026. Resorts and body corporates, builders part way through a fit out, and houses from Craiglie up to Cape Tribulation.

A rating tells you how somebody's last job went. A job count that size tells you something harder to fake: the same small town has kept calling the same electricians back for nearly twenty years, in front of everyone who would have heard about it if the work had not held up.

If we have been out to you, a review genuinely helps, and we would be grateful for it. It takes a minute.

We can't speak highly enough of Brad and his team at BHE. We have used BHE for many years and since Brad and Leanne bought the business they have lifted it to another level and is even better to deal with. They are so helpful and have great problem solving ideas, as we need to get issues fixed very quickly being a holiday resort and dealing with guests.

Iain and Fiona Colmore Owners and Managers, Central Plaza Apartments Port Douglas · September 2018

We have been using Brad and his team from BH Electrics since his inception and have been impressed with the timely response to our problems. Also the knowledge, understanding, competency, professional, courtesy staff, who always clean up after each job. Their workmanship is of high standards. We have no hesitation in recommending BH Electrics to further clients.

Robert De Carlo General Manager, Court House Hotel Port Douglas · October 2018

I have used BHE for all my electrical needs for the last six years, both while Blake Henning owned the business and now while Brad and Leanne own the business. They have both always been very professional, punctual and super efficient at their job. The boys they send out on the jobs are always very obliging, polite and considerate. They have been very helpful with suggestions and ideas when I have had difficulties. I have never been made to feel that a request was ridiculous, or that I was a nuisance. I highly recommend their services.

Priscilla Quaid Director, MPDT Mossman · October 2017

We have been using the services of BH Electrics for more than ten years. We would not hesitate to recommend their services and their team from BH Electrics. From simple installations through to late night emergency callouts for switchboard failures, BHE has always provided us a professional and friendly service.

David Costello Owner and Manager, Port Douglas Retreat Port Douglas · September 2018

Having lived in Port Douglas for less than a year and running a small business where reliability, punctuality and professionalism are paramount, BH Electrics have never failed to deliver. They have been very courteous, prompt and thorough in all of our dealings with them and we would highly recommend their services to anyone. Keep up the good work guys.

Jodie Lee-Anne Brolese Residential Letting Agent and Management Rights Owner, Fronds on Nautilus Port Douglas · September 2018

These guys are amazing. They installed my entire yoga studio, bathhouse and wholefoods businesses with never a problem. They always do a fantastic job. Recommend them highly.

Michael Joseph Owner, Deep Yoga Studio Port Douglas · September 2018

BHE have been servicing all of our electrical needs since Malone's Butchery has been operating. We find that the staff are very efficient and speedy in looking after our needs. In our line of business, it is very handy to have a contractor that we can call upon seven days a week.

Kylz Milton Operations Manager, Malone's Butchery Port Douglas · October 2018

We would like to thank you for assisting us in getting permanent power supply and lighting to our outdoor area. The work ethic from your team is to be commended. We will not hesitate to recommend BH Electrics to other locals in need of an electrician. We would like to have BH Electrics as our go-to electricians should anything need doing around the property.

Geoff and Ceri Jolly Homeowners Port Douglas · May 2019

Since day 1, regardless of the size of the job, their work has been faultless. Quick and easy, would recommend to anyone.

Liam Hudson Manager, Paddy's Irish Pub and Grill Port Douglas · 2019

Had no hot water today. Brad the owner answered the phone and sent one of his guys around within the hour to replace the thermostat. Now I know why they were voted winner of best tradepeople in Port Douglas at the 2019 Business Awards. Good old fashioned service, and didn't charge me an arm and a leg.

Stephen Britt Apartment owner, Sea Temple Port Douglas · 2019

Thank you. You guys did a great job, much appreciated at short notice.

Kate Oliver Owner, Port Douglas Day Spa Port Douglas · 2019

Fantastic service. Needed an electrician asap and BH Electrics were there. Highly recommend this business.

Lorraine Kath Homeowner Port Douglas · 2019

Fast response when really needed. Will use again, definitely. Thanks.

Why they stay

Knowing the building is half the job

After a few hundred jobs in the same resort you stop guessing. You know which board feeds which block, which circuits were altered in the last refurbishment, and which fitting corrodes first in the salt air.

That is the real reason our commercial customers stay. A new contractor spends the first two hours working out where things are. We are already fixing it.

  • Same Day Service Guarantee: ring by 2pm on a business day and a commercial job is attended that day, homes in an emergency
  • 24/7 emergency callout, including through the wet
  • Compliance records and certificates kept and re-issued on request
  • Quotes written so a body corporate committee can approve them

Recognition

Four years running at the Douglas Business and Tourism Awards

Winner in 2016, 2018 and 2019, runner up in 2017. That is four years running, longer than any other trade business in the Shire has managed at these awards, and it is the local community and industry that decided it, not us. In 2018 we also took out a NECA Excellence Award, judged by the electrical industry rather than the local business community.

We are proud of that record, and we back it up the same way every time: we are the electricians a resort calls first, full stop.
