About Us
Where It All Began
Zectra Electrical was founded in 2018 by Sam Alshahed, a dedicated tradesman with a vision to transform the way electrical services are delivered across Sydney. With years of hands-on experience in residential, commercial, and industrial sectors, Sam witnessed the impact of unreliable contractors and subpar workmanship firsthand. From the outset, Zectra gained traction through word-of-mouth referrals, driven by its honest communication, fair pricing, and reliable outcomes. The company’s customer-first approach helped it grow into a trusted name within the local community, supported by over 58 five-star Google reviews. Every client interaction reflects the same care, whether it’s a simple power outlet upgrade or a large-scale commercial fit-out. The mission was always more than just fixing electrical problems; it was about building lasting relationships and delivering a level of service that clients could genuinely rely on.
What Drives Us Forward
Our scope of work includes residential upgrades, emergency repairs, commercial maintenance, Level 2 projects, and tailored solar solutions. Regardless of the service, our approach is the same: we show up when promised, deliver on what we say, and ensure every detail meets industry standards. Clients trust us because we take the stress out of electrical work. We don’t cut corners, and we never leave a site without ensuring it’s safe, compliant, and clean. Our small, tight-knit team is committed to long-term results, not quick fixes. That’s what sets Zectra apart and keeps our clients coming back.
