What THM Electrical & Communications does

THM Electrical & Communications is a privately held, founder-owned Australian trade-services firm headquartered in Forrestdale, Perth, Western Australia. Founded in 2015 by Tom Males, the company provides electrical, communications and civil infrastructure services to residential, commercial, industrial, telecommunications, mining and government clients. The business operates across four interconnected service lines: Electrical Services (domestic wiring, commercial fitouts, industrial motor/control and generator work, street and park lighting); Communications Services (fibre optic splicing and testing, copper jointing, cable hauling, satellite installations, fault finding); Civil Services (trenching, pit and pipe installation, directional drilling, vacuum excavation, asbestos removal, concrete breakout and reinstatement); and a more recently formalised Hauling Services line for large-scale regional cable deployments. The company is differentiated by an integrated multi-discipline delivery model — one contractor handling electrical, communications and civil scopes — supported by an owned fleet of excavators, skid steers, tipper trucks, generators and utility vehicles.
