From the Hampden Road shops and Wilkes Avenue restaurants to the bungalow streets near Artarmon Reserve and the industrial blocks below the Gore Hill Freeway, our Artarmon deal is live. Quote it on the phone when you book and we will honour it.
Artarmon is split by the North Shore line. West of the railway, apartment blocks dominate, and the 2021 Census counted 68.4 per cent of dwellings as flats with 56.9 per cent having two bedrooms. East of the line sits the conservation area Willoughby Council protected for its intact Federation and Californian bungalow houses. We handle switchboard replacements in unit blocks, careful rewires in heritage homes and new circuits for kitchens and home offices.
South of the Gore Hill Freeway sits Artarmon’s industrial area, while SBS runs its studios from Herbert Street and a strip of shops lines Hampden Road by the station. We provide commercial electrical maintenance, three-phase circuits, lighting upgrades and network cabling for the businesses in each of these precincts.
From the Pacific Highway towers to the bungalows near Cleland Park, Artarmon callers can book our same-day service. Typical urgent jobs: a unit losing power when the oven and heater run together, a workshop’s three-phase supply dropping a phase, or water in a bungalow’s outdoor fittings.
Nearly half of Artarmon dwellings are rented, 49.9 per cent in the 2021 Census, so landlords, agents and strata managers are a big share of our clients. They want alarms replaced between tenants, tired unit boards fixed, and fault reports written clearly. As your Artarmon electrician we also work for owners in the eastern conservation streets who are updating a Federation house without spoiling its character.
The industrial pocket south of the freeway brings workshop lighting, machine circuits and office fit-outs, and restaurants along Wilkes Avenue need reliable kitchen supply. Around the station, older walk-ups often still have shared meter rooms and cramped boards. When a sudden fault leaves a home or business without power, our emergency electricians respond across Artarmon and the rest of the North Shore.
Willoughby Council protects East Artarmon for its intact Federation and Californian bungalow houses. We rewire them from the roof space and keep new meter boxes and lights off the street-facing facade.
Flats make up 68.4 per cent of Artarmon dwellings, mostly west of the railway. We upgrade unit boards, add circuits for air conditioning and clarify which faults belong to the owners corporation.
Artarmon's industrial zone lies below the Gore Hill Freeway. We install three-phase supply, high-bay lighting and machine circuits, and schedule shutdowns early or late to protect production time.
Shops run along Hampden Road opposite the station, with restaurants on Wilkes Avenue. We add kitchen circuits, repair signage and shop lighting, and fit emergency lights for older tenancies.
Artarmon walk-ups, Pacific Highway towers and East Artarmon bungalows are all familiar to our licensed team, including how each building type routes power from meter to room.
Every job is inspected before pricing. A two-bedroom flat near the station and a bungalow off Artarmon Road each get their own written fixed figure, since the work differs completely.
A tenant without power in a Hampden Road block or a workshop tripping out south of the freeway gets put near the front of our queue for the day.
Our 250+ customers include Artarmon landlords, strata committees, heritage home owners and small businesses, many referred by agents who manage rentals near the station.
Labour on every circuit we install in Artarmon, whether in a strata unit, an East Artarmon bungalow or an industrial unit, carries our guarantee for life.
Send your address, mention whether a strata manager looks after the building, and say where the van can park. We then offer an Artarmon slot that fits tenants, owners or shift times.
We test the circuits, look at the board and access, explain the options in plain words, and send one written fixed figure for you to approve before any work.
Pacific Highway and Mowbray Road traffic can be heavy, so we plan our arrival and phone ahead if the confirmed window needs to shift at all.
Offcuts and packaging leave with us, floors are protected, and you get the compliance certificate plus a note explaining what changed in your Artarmon property.

Our story began when Spyro opened the doors in 2017; today five-plus licensed electricians cover the lower North Shore each week. Artarmon keeps us busy with variety: strata blocks full of renters, protected bungalows in the east, and an industrial area where downtime costs money. Whether it is an alarm swap for a property manager or a full board upgrade in a Federation house near Wickham Park, one crew stays with the job from quote to paperwork.

The 2021 Census found 49.9 per cent of Artarmon dwellings rented, well above the 32.6 per cent NSW figure, and most are units west of the railway. That makes smoke alarm replacement and testing one of the most requested jobs we do for Artarmon landlords and agents.
We sign off each Artarmon job with a CCEW lodged for the property, the state’s record that our work was tested and meets the rules. In East Artarmon’s older houses, any original wiring we disturb is repaired or noted in writing. Alter or replace a switchboard and AS/NZS 3000 expects residual current devices across the final subcircuits, so we fit RCD safety switches of Type A or higher; Type AC dropped out of new installations on 1 May 2023.
Our Artarmon figures are fixed and written, and they only come after a site look. The spread of Artarmon property is the reason: extra lighting in a single-storey bungalow with an open roof space is simple, whereas the same job in a concrete-ceiling unit near the Pacific Highway may need strata approval and surface conduit. Seeing it first keeps the figure accurate.
Tripping board in a Jersey Road unit, alarms due for renewal in a rental, or a workshop south of the freeway short on power? Dial 02 8999 3691. We look at it on site in Artarmon, then commit to one written fixed figure, with the labour guaranteed for life.
These come up most often from Artarmon landlords, unit owners, East Artarmon home owners and local business operators. If yours is not covered here, call us on 02 8999 3691.
Frequently, yes. Crews are out from 7am until 5:30pm on weekdays and from 7am to 2pm each Saturday, with the lower North Shore on our daily rounds. An early call to 02 8999 3691 gives us the widest window to reach you before knock-off. Mention smoke from a fitting, an outlet that feels warm or a main switch that snaps straight off again, because those jump ahead of routine bookings.
We confirm the price after seeing the job. A light fitting swap in a bungalow with easy roof access takes little time, while running new circuits in a unit with concrete ceilings and strata rules takes much more. Once we inspect, you get a written fixed price, which stays put unless you ask for extra work.
That depends on where the fault sits. Faults from the unit’s own board onward usually fall to the lot owner, while main switchboards, meter rooms and common lighting belong to the owners corporation. With 68.4 per cent of Artarmon dwellings being flats, we often trace faults for both parties and give the strata manager a clear written report.
Yes. Willoughby Council recognises East Artarmon for its intact Federation and Californian bungalow houses, and internal rewiring is normally allowed. The care goes into keeping new meter boxes, conduits and exterior lights away from the street elevation and protecting original ceilings, cornices and joinery. We recommend checking with Willoughby Council about approvals for any external change.
In NSW, alarms must be replaced within ten years of their manufacture date, repaired within two business days of a tenant reporting a fault, and there must be a working alarm on each storey. Hard-wired alarms must be installed by a licensed electrician. With nearly half of Artarmon homes rented, we regularly carry out smoke alarm testing for agents between leases.
Usually. Many two-bedroom units west of the railway were built without dedicated air conditioning circuits. We check the capacity of your unit board and the building’s supply, run a separate circuit to the indoor and outdoor units, and coordinate with strata when cabling passes through common property or the balcony facade.
We do. The industrial zone south of the Gore Hill Freeway is full of businesses that depend on steady power. We install three-phase circuits, high-bay and LED lighting, machine isolation switches and data cabling, and schedule shutdowns before or after working hours to keep production running.
In most houses, yes, and in many unit buildings with strata approval. Artarmon averages 1.2 vehicles per dwelling, and houses east of the railway often have driveways or garages. First we measure how much load your board can still take, then lay a separate feed to the garage or carport and mount the unit on a solid wall. For basement car spaces we work with the owners corporation on load management.
Yes. The Hampden Road strip opposite the station and the restaurants on Wilkes Avenue often operate in older buildings with limited supply. We add kitchen circuits, fix shop lighting and signage, install exit and emergency lights, and book noisy work outside trading hours.
