Data cabling is one of those jobs that gets done badly more often than it gets done well — usually because the person quoting it doesn’t hold an Open Cabler Registration, or doesn’t bother testing the runs before signing off.
We do a few things differently.
What you actually get
Every job leaves with: certified test results (Fluke DSX), labelled outlets at both ends, a patch panel diagram if you’ve got a rack, and a clean install. Cable runs in conduit where required, in cable tray where appropriate, and never zip-tied to something it shouldn’t be.
For residential work we typically run Cat6 — it handles 1 Gigabit comfortably and most homes will never need more. For commercial or anywhere with future-proofing requirements (10 Gig, PoE++ for IP cameras, AV-over-IP) we recommend Cat6A or fibre between racks.
What it costs
We don’t quote off a price calculator. Every job gets either a phone call (small jobs) or a free site visit (anything substantial). The quote we give you is fixed. If we find anything extra on the day, we ring you before we touch it.
Most residential 4-point installs land between $400 and $900. Commercial fit-outs are scoped per site — but to give you a sense, a 12-outlet single-rack install in an open-plan office typically runs $2,500-$4,500 fully certified.
Who’s doing the work
Every job is done by an ACMA-registered cabler (registration T012345). Apprentices work under direct supervision only. We’re fully insured for $20m public liability, and we’ve been doing this since 2014 — about 4,200 jobs in.
