What those 4 reviews do show is a pattern of satisfied customers who name the operators by name (Trevor and Terry) and call out specific results: clean wall mounts, good communication, problems properly resolved. One of the four reviews describes a no-show after a customer took a day off work — a real concern — but with only a single mention in a four-review pool, it's impossible to say whether that's a recurring issue or a one-off. Given the thin review history, ask directly when booking: confirm the date, get a time window in writing, and check whether they're currently taking on new work in your area of Kirwan or further afield.

Best for: TV wall mounting in residential homes, CCTV and security camera installation, and homeowners who want direct contact with the person doing the work rather than a call centre.

About T.N Locke Communications

Trevor and Terry — the two names that emerge from T.N. Locke Communications' reviews — appear to divide the work between installation and problem-solving: Trevor draws praise specifically for TV wall mounting, while Terry is credited with going above and beyond to address whatever a customer needs fixed. Running as a sole trader under the T.N. Locke banner, this is a tight, owner-operated communications and security outfit with roughly 26 years of trading behind it in the Kirwan area of Townsville's north. The business name and category point to security, CCTV, and data cabling work rather than broad electrical — the kind of specialist that homeowners call when they want cameras installed cleanly, aerials sorted, or screens mounted properly rather than a generalist sparky. With GST registration in place, they're set up to invoice formally for jobs where that matters. The working style that comes through in reviews is communicative and flexible — customers specifically mention clear updates and a willingness to adapt — which suits homeowners who've been left waiting by tradies before.

Best for: TV wall mounting in residential homes, CCTV and security camera installation, and homeowners who want direct contact with the person doing the work rather than a call centre.

Common questions about T.N Locke Communications

Who actually turns up to do the work at T.N. Locke Communications?+

Based on customer reviews, two operators are mentioned by name: Trevor, who is specifically praised for TV wall mounting, and Terry, who is described as going above and beyond to resolve whatever the customer needs. As a sole trader operation, you're dealing with a small, hands-on team rather than a large company dispatching unknown subcontractors. It's worth confirming on the phone who will attend your job and their availability.

What kind of jobs does T.N. Locke Communications typically handle?+

The business sits in the Security and CCTV category and operates under a communications-focused name, which points to work like CCTV installation, TV wall mounting, antenna and satellite work, and data or communications cabling. One reviewer specifically mentions wall mounting as a standout result. They don't appear to be a general electrician, so if your job is primarily electrical rather than comms or security, it's worth checking they cover your specific scope before booking.

Does T.N. Locke Communications service areas outside Kirwan?+

The business is based in Kirwan, which is in Townsville's northern suburbs. Reviews don't specify how far they travel, and there's no stated service radius in the available data. Given the small team size, coverage is likely focused on the greater Townsville area, but confirm your suburb directly when you make contact — especially if you're further out.

What do customers say about reliability and punctuality?+

This is where the review picture is mixed. Three of the four reviews are positive about communication and job outcomes. One review, however, describes a no-show after the customer took a day off work specifically for the appointment — a significant inconvenience. With only four reviews total, it's not possible to say how common that experience is. To protect yourself, confirm the booking in writing, get a specific time window, and follow up the day before.

Is T.N. Locke Communications set up for formal invoicing or business jobs?+

Yes — the business is GST registered, which means they can issue compliant tax invoices for jobs where you need to claim GST or process through a business account. As a sole trader with around 26 years of operation, they have the administrative basics in place. If you need a formal quote before work begins, mention that when you first make contact.
