Chatswood is an apartment suburb with a house fringe. In 2021, 67.6 per cent of dwellings were flats against 21.7 per cent statewide, 27.9 per cent were separate houses and 50.2 per cent of homes were rented. Settlement started in 1876 and grew with the 1890 railway, so leafy streets away from the towers still hold older cottages alongside newer high-rise. In units we fix tripping circuits, add extra power points and swap tired lighting; in houses we upgrade boards and rewire.
Offices line the Pacific Highway, Victoria Avenue carries the retail core, and Westfield Chatswood, Chatswood Chase and the Mandarin Centre draw crowds, with dozens of restaurants in between. We deliver office and tenancy fit-outs, data cabling, kitchen power upgrades and planned maintenance around trading hours.
We offer same-day service from Chatswood station out to the Mowbray Road side of the suburb. Urgent calls here tend to be a unit switchboard tripping at dinner time, a dead circuit in a busy restaurant kitchen, or scorched outlets in an older walk-up.
Half of Chatswood homes are rented, so property managers and landlords are a big part of our work here, along with owner-occupiers in towers near the interchange and families in houses near Chatswood Oval and Beauchamp Park. Many residents speak Mandarin or Cantonese at home, and clear written quotes help everyone. As a local Chatswood electrician we handle lease-change checks, lighting refreshes, faulty cooktops and new circuits for home studies.
Commercial clients range from restaurant owners along Victoria Avenue to office managers on the Pacific Highway. Access matters here, with loading docks, building managers and paid parking shaping each job. When something goes wrong without warning, we send an emergency electrician as fast as traffic allows. The same team works across Chatswood and throughout the North Shore.
Flats make up 67.6 per cent of Chatswood dwellings. We work within strata rules, confirm what belongs to the lot versus common property, and trace faults through unit boards, risers and shared lighting.
Half of all homes here, 50.2 per cent, are rented, so managing agents book us between leases to test smoke alarms, check safety switches and replace worn switches and outlets before new tenants arrive.
Separate houses still make up 27.9 per cent of dwellings, many on streets settled after the railway arrived in 1890. We replace original boards and cable and add circuits for kitchens and extensions.
Chatswood is a major dining destination, with many Chinese, Japanese and Korean eateries. We add kitchen circuits, fix tripping cooking equipment and upgrade shopfront lighting without stopping service.
Whether it is a Pacific Highway tower or a cottage near Chatswood Public School, which opened in 1883, our licensed electricians adjust methods and materials to the building in front of them.
You get a fixed written figure after we inspect. A unit off Victoria Avenue and a detached house near Beauchamp Park get priced separately, as their access and cable runs differ.
When a Chatswood restaurant loses power mid-service or a tenant reports a burning smell, we reorder the day’s schedule to get there quickly, within our weekday and Saturday hours.
Among our 250+ customers are Chatswood property managers, strata committees and shop owners, and many of them book us again when a new lease, tenancy or apartment comes up.
Any labour we perform in your Chatswood home, shop or office is covered for life. If a fitting or circuit we installed fails due to our workmanship, the repair is on us.
Book online or by phone and tell us about building access, concierge rules or loading dock bookings. Chatswood towers often need a slot arranged with the building manager first.
We inspect the switchboard, the circuits involved and any strata limits, then send a fixed written quote so tenants, owners and property managers all see the same figure.
Street parking near Victoria Avenue is tight, so we plan a legal spot or dock booking ahead and arrive inside the agreed window, calling ahead if traffic on Mowbray Road slows us.
We tidy up, test the finished work, and leave the compliance certificate plus a short report that owners and agents can file straight away.

Local pockets we cover in Chatswood
Nearby suburbs we also serve
From a one-man start in 2017, Spyro has grown the crew to five-plus licensed electricians. Chatswood keeps us busy because it packs so much into one suburb: apartment towers, older houses, office floors, restaurants and shopping centres. We have come to know its strata processes, loading docks and property managers, and we treat each small unit job with the same care as a full office fit-out.

Chatswood is one of the North Shore’s biggest commercial districts, with office buildings along the Pacific Highway and Australian headquarters for firms such as Smith’s Snackfood and Carnival Australia. Offices here change tenants and layouts often, which means steady demand for fit-out electrical work.
Each Chatswood job is signed off with a Certificate of Compliance for Electrical Work, the state’s mandatory record. When we replace or modify a switchboard, whether in a unit, a house or an office floor, AS/NZS 3000 requires RCD protection on the final subcircuits. We fit Type A safety switches, because Type AC units dropped out of permitted new installations on 1 May 2023, and we test existing protection before we leave.
We inspect, then fix the price in writing before starting. In Chatswood the same request can mean very different jobs: adding power points in a high-rise unit near the interchange means strata approval, dock bookings and working inside concrete, while the same job in a house near Chatswood Oval may involve easy roof space access. Your figure reflects your building.
From a unit near Chatswood station to a restaurant on Victoria Avenue or an office on the Pacific Highway, our licensed team is ready. You get a written fixed quote, respect for building rules and lifetime labour cover. Call 02 8999 3691 and we will book your Chatswood job.
The questions we get most from Chatswood tenants, landlords, strata committees and business owners. If yours is not covered here, call us on 02 8999 3691.
In most cases, yes. Our vans run 7am to 5:30pm on weekdays and 7am to 2pm on Saturdays. Chatswood sits in the middle of our regular area, so ringing 02 8999 3691 before lunch usually gets someone to you that afternoon. For towers, let us know about access so we can arrange it with the building manager first.
We look at the job first and then provide a written fixed price. There is no point quoting blind, because a Chatswood apartment with concrete ceilings and strata rules is a very different task from a house with a roomy roof cavity. Once you accept the quote, that figure stands unless you ask for extra work.
In Chatswood apartments, common culprits are a failing appliance, moisture in a bathroom or balcony fitting, or too many devices on one circuit in a small unit. We isolate each circuit, test appliances and check the insulation to find the fault. Do not keep resetting it if it trips straight away, as that usually signals a real problem.
Usually the owner pays for wiring and fittings inside the lot, from the unit’s own board onward, while the owners corporation pays for common property such as risers, shared lighting and main switchrooms. Every building’s plan and by-laws differ, so check yours. We can identify where a fault sits and provide a report for your strata manager.
With half of Chatswood homes rented, this comes up a lot. Each storey of a NSW rental must have a working alarm. Once a tenant reports a dead alarm, the landlord has two business days to have it fixed, and any alarm more than ten years past its manufacture date is due for replacement. Mains-powered units must be fitted by a licensed electrician. We test, replace and document alarms between tenancies.
Yes. Chatswood is well known for dining, and restaurant kitchens often outgrow their original power. We add dedicated circuits for cooking and refrigeration, fix nuisance tripping, upgrade lighting and install commercial electrical fittings. We can schedule work before opening or on quieter days to reduce disruption to your trading.
Often, yes, but it needs strata approval and a look at the building’s capacity. We assess the supply to the car park, the distance from the unit’s meter and any existing charging plans. For houses with a garage, the job is simpler: we check the board and run a dedicated circuit with the correct protection.
Yes. Many Chatswood houses predate the towers, and some still have ceramic fuses or early breakers. We replace them with a modern switchboard, add RCD protection to every final subcircuit, and label each circuit clearly. It is often the first job new owners book after buying an older house here.
When we are at your Chatswood property for a booked job, we check the switchboard, safety switches and smoke alarms free and tell you what we find. For a complete inspection on its own, such as before buying or leasing, we quote a fixed price upfront.
Yes to all three. Spyro has run the business since 2017, and every one of our five-plus electricians holds a licence and full insurance. Over 7,000 projects are complete, and our labour carries a lifetime guarantee. Each Chatswood job is documented with a CCEW, so owners, agents and strata managers have a record.
