Right now our specials extend to Clovelly homes and shops along Clovelly Road, from the Fern Street and Arden Street corners down to Burnie Street, plus Burrows Park and the Clovelly Beach end. Mention it when you call and we add it to the quote.
Clovelly homes are mostly attached. The 2021 Census recorded 46.3 per cent flats, 26.3 per cent semis, terraces or townhouses and 25.0 per cent separate houses, against 65.6 per cent houses statewide, and two-bedroom homes are the single biggest group at 39.6 per cent. The 1913 tram extension helped popularise the area, and older semis and small blocks now line the slopes above the bay. We upgrade old boards, add power points and rewire tired circuits in these compact homes.
Clovelly Road holds four small shopping precincts: Fern Street with its post office, chemist and bank, Arden Street’s cafes and general store, a few shops at Carrington Road, and the beach strip at Burnie Street. We handle lighting, kitchen circuits, shop fit-outs and maintenance for these traders.
Clovelly gets same-day service from our crew, from Carrington Road down to the beach. Frequent urgent calls include semis losing power after heavy rain, a cafe fridge circuit failing on a hot morning, and stairwell lights dying in a small unit block.
Clovelly keeps us busy with owners renovating semis, strata committees looking after small walk-up blocks, and landlords managing the 37.2 per cent of homes that are rented. Hospital staff and lawyers feature prominently among local workers in the Census, so punctual booking windows and clear written quotes matter. As a Clovelly electrician we also look after the cafes and shops dotted along Clovelly Road.
On the slopes near Burrows Park it is mostly board upgrades and kitchen rewiring, while closer to the bay sea air shortens the life of outdoor lights and meter boxes. When something fails without warning, request an emergency electrician and one of our licensed crew working through the Eastern Suburbs will be on the way.
Semis, terraces and townhouses make up 26.3 per cent of Clovelly homes. We rewire through shared brick walls, upgrade old fuse boards and add circuits for modern kitchens without disturbing the neighbours.
Flats account for 46.3 per cent of dwellings, many in modest older blocks. We upgrade unit boards, fix stairwell and foyer lighting, and give strata a clear split between lot and common property faults.
Four small precincts line Clovelly Road, from Fern Street to Burnie Street. We rewire cafe kitchens, add refrigeration circuits and fit LED lighting and exit signs for local traders.
Homes near Clovelly Bay and Gordons Bay face constant sea spray. We replace corroded outdoor lights and outlets with sealed, marine-grade fittings and protect exposed circuits with safety switches.
Our licensed electricians regularly work inside Clovelly’s older semis and small unit blocks, and know how shared walls and tight roof spaces affect cable routes.
You get a firm price in writing after we inspect. A two-bedroom flat near Fern Street and a semi near Burrows Park are quoted on their actual needs.
If a Clovelly home loses power or a Clovelly Road cafe goes dark, we slot the job in ahead of routine work so it is sorted within our working hours.
Clovelly renters, owners and shopkeepers are among our 250+ customers, and a lot of our local bookings come from word of mouth along the same street.
All labour on circuits we install in a Clovelly semi, unit or shop is guaranteed for its lifetime, even where the cable is buried behind new plaster.
Tell us your street and whether parking near the beach or Clovelly Road is tricky. We then suggest a booking time that fits your work shifts or trading hours.
We check your board and wiring, explain what needs doing in everyday language and email a fixed written amount, so there are no surprises at invoice time.
Weekend beach traffic can clog Clovelly Road, so we plan our run and arrive within the agreed window. If anything delays us, you get a call straight away.
We clear away dust and offcuts, test each circuit, and leave your compliance certificate plus a note on what changed in your semi, unit or shop.

Local pockets we cover in Clovelly

Spyro founded the business in 2017, and our team of five-plus licensed electricians now works in Clovelly most weeks. The housing here rewards patience: shared walls in semis, compact meter cupboards in walk-ups and steep streets down to the bay. We could be fitting new lighting in a Burnie Street flat one day and upgrading an Arden Street shop the next, with the same electrician seeing each job through.

The tram that reached Clovelly Beach in 1913 helped popularise the suburb, and the 2021 Census shows 72.6 per cent of its homes are flats, semis or terraces. Older boards in these compact homes often have few RCDs, and sea air near the bay makes outdoor faults more likely, so safety switch work is our most common Clovelly job.
NSW rules require a Certificate of Compliance for Electrical Work after every job, and each Clovelly visit ends with one. Many semis here are decades old, so any old wiring we disturb is either brought up to standard or listed in writing for the owner. Board alterations trigger AS/NZS 3000 residual current protection on final subcircuits, and Type AC switches have been excluded from new work since 1 May 2023.
Prices are fixed in writing after we inspect. Adding lighting to a two-bedroom unit near Fern Street is usually a straightforward visit, while the same request in a semi with a shared brick wall and a tight roof space above the bay takes more time and care. So we see the job first and then commit to a single figure.
Old fuse board in a Clovelly semi, safety switches tripping after rain, or a Clovelly Road shop needing more power? Ring 02 8999 3691 and a licensed electrician will inspect it in person, send you a fixed written quote and guarantee the labour for life.
Clovelly semi owners, renters, strata committees and Clovelly Road shopkeepers ask us these most often. If yours is not covered here, call us on 02 8999 3691.
Usually. We work from 7am to 5:30pm on weekdays and 7am to 2pm on Saturdays, and we are closed on Sundays. Clovelly is close to where our vans already travel, so calling 02 8999 3691 early in the day often means a visit that same day. Anything involving smoke, heat or total loss of power is given priority.
We set the price after seeing the work. Clovelly has compact flats, attached semis and older shops, and access, cable routes and wiring age vary widely between them. After an inspection, we send a fixed written figure, and it only changes if you decide to add something.
Moisture is the usual culprit near the bay. Salt spray and rain get into outdoor lights, garden power points and old junction boxes, and the RCD does its job by cutting power. Worn appliances can also cause it. We test circuit by circuit, find the source and fix it rather than just resetting the switch.
Yes. Many Clovelly semis share a brick party wall, and older wiring sometimes passes through shared roof spaces. We trace every circuit before cutting anything, keep work on your side of the wall and make sure your new wiring is fully separate from the neighbour’s supply.
Generally, the lot owner covers wiring from their unit board into the apartment, while the owners corporation covers the main board, meter panels, foyer and stair lights. Because nearly half of Clovelly homes are flats, this comes up often. We locate the fault first and send you and the strata manager a written explanation.
There must be a working alarm on every storey, faults reported by tenants need repairing within two business days, and any alarm ten years past its manufacture date needs replacing. Hard-wired alarms must be installed by a licensed electrician. With 37.2 per cent of Clovelly homes rented, we do smoke alarm upgrades between leases and leave dated records for your agent.
Where there is a garage or off-street space, generally yes. The 2021 Census counted 1.5 vehicles per Clovelly dwelling, though many semis rely on street parking. If you have a spot, we check board capacity, run a dedicated circuit and install the charger. For unit blocks we confirm strata approval first.
Yes. Clovelly Road has four small precincts, including the Fern Street and Arden Street corners and the Burnie Street shops by the beach. We add circuits for coffee machines and refrigeration, upgrade lighting, install exit signs and time disruptive work around trading hours.
The grand Mundarrah Towers estate once stood around Burnie Street, and some buildings from the Cliffbrook estate survive at Beach and Battery Streets. Older homes in these parts can have original ceilings and joinery worth keeping. We route new cable to avoid visible damage and suggest checking with Randwick City Council about any approvals.
Yes. Every electrician on the team is licensed in NSW and fully insured. Spyro founded the business in 2017, and we have completed over 7,000 projects since. Labour carries a lifetime guarantee, and each Clovelly job finishes with its compliance certificate.
All of Clovelly 2031, including Clovelly Road, Clovelly Beach, Burrows Park, Burnie Street, Fern Street, Arden Street, Carrington Road, Mundarrah Street, Donnellan Circuit and the Gordons Bay side. We also work regularly in Bronte, Coogee, Queens Park, Randwick, Waverley and Tamarama.
