At Dolphin Electrical we are all about keeping you in the loop. There is nothing more frustrating than waiting around for a tradesman who never shows up. Where possible we will provide you with a date and scheduled timing when the booking is taken. If for any reason the scheduling needs to change our office admin staff will be in contact to make the adjustment. Should your requirements be more involved we will attend the property in advance to determine a scope of works prior to scheduling. While onsite our tradesmen will have access to onsite contact details should they have any questions. Where possible we will avoid a second visit but it may be necessary to order parts to finish the job. Your job will be completed in a time efficient and professional manner and we will always clean up after ourselves. Once complete an invoice will be issued via email providing you with details for online payment. If for any reason you are unsatisfied with the job please let us know as we rely on customer feedback to continually improve our service.

About Sy Dolphin
Yes, Dolphin is actually his name, no abbreviation or even middle name necessary.
Born in Sydney, Sy lived on the Northern Beaches most of his life and relocated to Port Douglas in 2001 after a trip exploring Australia in a big red Nissan Patrol. He picked up work around town at the Treetops Bar (Ramada) and Mossman Sugar Mill so he could still fit in a mid-week round of golf.
Things got a little more serious when he promised his wife Amber, they could have a baby if he got a boat. In 2004 he struck out on his own and has since gained the well-earned reputation of being the Electrician you call when you want a quality and safe job done on time. Having promised himself he would keep his “City Smarts” and offer reliable and exceptional service to all his loyal customers he continues to live up to that.
When not climbing ladders, meeting with customers or instructing his staff Sy loves boating, camping and fishing, with a regular game of poker on the side and an overdose of Golf on weekends wherever possible.
About Amber Dolphin
Lucky enough to exchange her maiden name, Whittington, with Dolphin in 2003.
Born in Perth, Amber spend her childhood moving between Perth, Sydney and Brisbane. She met Sy while working as an Event Co-ordinator in Sydney and moved from the big smoke to Port Douglas in search of a better environment to bring up a family.
After working in Sydney for a company helping BHP host international guests at the Sydney 2000 Olympics, her new gig at Treetops (Ramada) as Wedding Co-ordinator was almost a walk in the park. (Give or take a Bridezilla or three.)
When Sy started his business, Amber took the admin support role keeping his paperwork in order. As the business expanded and their children grew her role became more involved and she now works full time playing an enormous game of “Schedule Tetris” with an extra few hats thrown in the ring.
Given the chance she reads voraciously, enjoys camping, hiking and horse riding in Far North Queensland’s beautiful paradise. Can be found at either CrossFit or up the bump track in the early hours and aspires to be a published author.
