Chifley is a family suburb. The 2021 Census counted 58.8 per cent separate houses, 25.4 per cent townhouses or semis and only 16.2 per cent flats, and 42.7 per cent of homes have four or more bedrooms. Many homes began as slowly built Depression-era cottages on leased Crown land, and plenty have since been knocked down for larger, taller houses. We wire those new builds, extend older cottages and upgrade switchboards in 1960s units.
Chifley is mostly residential, with Chifley Public School, Matraville Sports High School, several preschools and Chifley Sports Reserve as its main non-residential sites. The Census also shows plumbing and electrical services employing locals at more than double the state rate, so we wire home workshops, garages and small commercial premises for trade businesses.
Chifley households get same-day service from our crew, from Bunnerong Road to the Little Bay side. Common urgent faults we see: a garage circuit tripping under workshop tools, a dead oven in a family kitchen, and lighting failures in older public housing blocks.
Most Chifley calls come from families. Some are finishing a knock-down rebuild and want lighting, data and power planned room by room, others are extending a 1930s cottage and need the old supply brought up to scratch. As the Chifley local electrician for many of these households, we also help landlords, townhouse owners and tradespeople running businesses from their garage.
The work changes street by street. Near Mawson Parade it might be a fresh home needing an EV circuit, while an older block elsewhere needs its board replaced and RCDs added. If a fault leaves you without power, ask for an emergency callout and a licensed electrician from our team covering the Eastern Suburbs will come and make it right.
Much of Chifley's original housing has been replaced by larger, taller family homes. We lay out circuits, lighting and data cabling from frame stage so each room suits how the family actually lives.
Townhouses and semis make up about a quarter of Chifley homes. We upgrade individual boards, sort shared driveway and garden lighting, and tell owners where their wiring ends and common property begins.
A large public housing complex of four and five storey buildings went up here in the 1960s. We replace aged boards, repair stair lighting and bring smoke alarms into line with current rules.
Plumbing and electrical services employ Chifley residents at over twice the NSW rate. We run dedicated circuits, extra outlets and bright lighting into garages and sheds used for tools and stock.
Our licensed electricians have worked on everything from Chifley’s 1930s cottages to brand-new double-storey homes, so they understand how each era’s wiring was put together.
We inspect before quoting and give one fixed amount on paper. A Lasseter Avenue townhouse and a knock-down rebuild near Mawson Parade are priced on their own merits.
When a Chifley family loses power or a workshop circuit cooks, we fit the job in ahead of routine bookings so it is sorted during working hours.
Chifley families, landlords and home-based tradespeople are part of our 250+ customers, and many heard about us from the house next door.
Every circuit we run in a Chifley home, garage or townhouse carries lifetime labour cover, including wiring we place inside new walls during a rebuild.
Tell us your street and whether builders, trucks or school pick-up traffic will affect access. We then book a slot that works around your family’s timetable.
After checking the board and circuits, we talk through the job and send a fixed written figure, so the final amount matches what you signed off.
We plan our route along Bunnerong Road and turn up within the window we gave. If something holds us up, we call ahead with a revised time.
Once finished, we tidy the work area, remove offcuts, test each circuit and hand over the compliance certificate with a short list of changes made.

Wikipedia notes that much of Chifley’s original housing has been demolished and replaced with larger, taller family homes, and the 2021 Census shows 42.7 per cent of dwellings now have four or more bedrooms. Planning wiring for rebuilds and big extensions is the job we quote most often here.
Every Chifley job is closed out with a Certificate of Compliance for Electrical Work, as NSW law requires. That applies equally to a whole new house and a single added circuit in a 1930s cottage. Replacing or altering a switchboard means AS/NZS 3000 RCD protection must cover the final subcircuits, and Type AC devices have been barred from new work since 1 May 2023, so we install Type A or better.
We give a fixed written price once we have seen the job. Wiring a new double-storey home in Chifley is a planned, staged project with the builder, whereas replacing an old board in a 1960s unit is a single visit with its own access and strata steps. Because they differ so much, we measure first and then lock in the number.
Building new in Chifley, extending an older cottage, or running a trade business from your garage? Call 02 8999 3691 and a licensed electrician will visit, measure up, give you a fixed written quote and stand behind the labour for as long as you own the place.
Chifley families, rebuilders, townhouse owners and garage-based tradespeople ask us these questions most. If yours is not covered here, call us on 02 8999 3691.
Quite often. We operate from 7am to 5:30pm Monday to Friday and from 7am to 2pm on Saturday, closed Sunday. Chifley is an easy drive for our vans, so if you ring 02 8999 3691 early, same-day attendance is usually possible. Faults involving heat, sparks or a complete loss of power are handled ahead of planned work.
Our quotes come after a site visit. A power point in a townhouse and a full electrical fit-out for a new home are very different jobs, and even two cottages can hide very different wiring. We inspect, explain the scope and then give a fixed written price that only changes if you add work.
As early as possible. Ideally we see the plans before the frame goes up, so we can suggest where the board should sit, how many circuits the house needs and where power, lighting and data should go. Early input means fewer changes during construction and a smoother path through rough-in and fit-off.
Some of it may. Chifley’s older homes were often built slowly during the Depression, with wiring added in stages. Before we connect new rooms, we test insulation and earthing on the existing circuits, then recommend which parts can stay and which should be replaced. We also check the board has the capacity for the extra load.
The owner normally looks after wiring from their own board into their home, while the owners corporation handles shared lighting, common meter panels and driveway fittings. We locate the fault first and report in writing to you and the strata manager so the right party pays.
Yes. The 2021 Census counted 1.8 vehicles per Chifley dwelling, and most houses have a driveway or garage. We check the board has enough capacity, run a dedicated circuit to the parking spot and install the charger. On new builds, we can allow for it from the start.
We do plenty of these in Chifley, where more residents work in plumbing and electrical services than the state average. We add dedicated circuits for compressors and saws, weatherproof outdoor outlets, bright LED lighting and RCD protection, so the workshop runs safely without overloading the house.
Each level needs a working alarm, a reported fault must be fixed within two business days, and alarms over ten years past manufacture must be replaced. Hard-wired alarms have to be installed by a licensed electrician. We handle smoke alarm installation and testing at lease changeover and leave dated records for your agent.
Yes. A small remnant of Eastern Suburbs Banksia Scrub survives on the western side of Chifley and is being preserved. For homes backing onto bushland we keep outdoor lighting modest, use sealed fittings and avoid trenching near protected vegetation without the right permissions.
Yes. Every electrician on the team holds a NSW licence and is insured. Spyro started the business in 2017, and our crew has passed 7,000 projects. Labour carries a lifetime guarantee, and every Chifley job ends with its compliance certificate.
All of Chifley 2036, including Bunnerong Road, Lasseter Avenue, Mawson Parade, Dr Walters Park, Chifley Sports Reserve, the Women’s Athletic Field and the streets around Chifley Public School and Matraville Sports High School.
