Our Narraweena specials are on now for houses off McIntosh Road, Willandra Road and Alamein Avenue, plus families near Beverley Job Park and the May Road shops. Just mention the deal while booking and it is taken off the job.
Narraweena was carved into house blocks after World War II, and its post office opened in 1953, so much of the original housing is now around 70 years old. The 2021 Census counted 72.7 per cent separate houses, above the 65.6 per cent NSW figure, and 34.5 per cent of homes with four or more bedrooms. We replace postwar fuse boards, rewire kitchens during home renovations, add circuits for second storeys and light up rear yards on streets like Parr Parade and Victor Road.
Commerce here is small scale: the May Road shops on Warringah Road, two primary schools, a Montessori school and the St John the Apostle parish. We handle shop lighting, dedicated equipment circuits, data cabling and planned maintenance timed around school and trading hours.
Every Narraweena street gets same-day service, from Warringah Road up to Greenwood Avenue. Common urgent calls involve fuse boards burning out under modern loads, half a house dead after a storm, and scorched power points in original 1950s kitchens and laundries.
Narraweena is a family suburb first. At the 2021 Census, couples with children made up 52.2 per cent of families, and the median age was 43, so most of our work is in busy households adding space, rooms and appliances to houses first built for a much smaller load. As a Narraweena electrician we also work for households from the suburb’s long-standing Calabrian community, whose parish is St John the Apostle.
The job list follows the housing. Postwar fuse boards give way to modern switchboards, laundries get fresh circuits, and double-storey additions need new sub-mains and lighting plans. Townhouse owners want their boards brought up to date, while landlords ask for alarm checks between leases. A tripping circuit off McIntosh Road or an emergency electrician visit on a wet Saturday is ordinary work for us across the Northern Beaches.
Narraweena was subdivided after World War II, so many houses still carry ceramic fuses and patchy earthing. We test what remains, fit a new switchboard and add RCD protection to every final subcircuit.
Over a third of Narraweena homes have four or more bedrooms, often thanks to additions. We run sub-mains to new levels, plan lighting and power with builders and rough-in before plasterboard goes up.
Townhouses and semis make up 15.1 per cent of dwellings here. We upgrade compact boards, repair driveway and common-area lighting and give strata managers a written record of who owns each fault.
The May Road shops, St John the Apostle and the primary schools need dependable power and lighting. We add circuits, swap tired fittings for LEDs and schedule work before opening or during holidays.
Our licensed electricians regularly open up Narraweena’s postwar houses and understand how their original wiring was run, patched and extended over seven decades of family life.
We see the job, then give you one written price. A townhouse off Willandra Road and a four-bedroom house near Beverley Job Park get quoted on their own details.
If a fuse board starts smoking or a storm knocks out power in a Narraweena home, we move bookings around so an electrician reaches you without a long wait.
Our 250+ customers include Narraweena families, landlords and small shopkeepers near May Road, and many came to us through a neighbour or a parent at the local primary school.
The labour on every circuit we install in a Narraweena home, extension or shop is guaranteed for life, including rewires hidden inside original postwar walls.
Tell us your street and whether we should use the driveway, side path or rear lane. We then suggest a time that fits around school drop-offs and work.
Our electrician checks the board and the work, explains the choices in simple terms, then sends a firm written price so you can decide in your own time.
We arrive inside the window we agreed. Warringah Road traffic can be slow at peak times, so if we are delayed, you will hear from us before the time passes.
Floors get covered, dust gets cleaned, packaging leaves in our van, and you receive the compliance certificate plus a short note on what we changed in your home.

Narraweena was subdivided after World War II and its post office opened in 1953, so a large share of its 72.7 per cent separate houses still rely on wiring from that era. Rubber or early plastic cable, missing earths and ceramic fuses are what we most often find when families start renovating.
A Certificate of Compliance for Electrical Work, or CCEW, is issued for every Narraweena job, as NSW law demands. In houses built after the war, any board we touch must gain RCD protection on each final subcircuit under AS/NZS 3000, which often catches long-hidden faults in original cable. Type AC safety switches have been ruled out of new installations since 1 May 2023, so we fit Type A or better.
We inspect first and then give a single fixed figure in writing. A lighting upgrade in a newer townhouse off Willandra Road is often straightforward, while the same work in an original postwar house near Parr Park can mean crawling a tight roof, dealing with brittle cable and extending circuits along the way. Seeing the job keeps the number right.
Original fuse board in a postwar house near Beverley Job Park, an extension that needs new circuits, or a May Road shop wanting brighter lighting? Phone 02 8999 3691. A licensed electrician will inspect it on site, put a set price on paper and stand behind the labour for as long as you own the place.
Questions Narraweena families, renovators, townhouse owners and local shopkeepers ask us most often. If yours is not covered here, call us on 02 8999 3691.
Usually. Our team works 7am to 5:30pm Monday to Friday and 7am to 2pm Saturday, with no Sunday work. Ring 02 8999 3691 in the morning and we can often reach Narraweena that afternoon. A burning smell, a hot or buzzing board, sparks from an outlet or a main switch that trips at once all get put ahead of routine bookings.
We give no figures until we have seen the work. Similar requests can vary greatly: adding a power point in a recent townhouse is quick, while doing it in an original postwar house with brittle cable and a cramped roof takes far longer. After the inspection, you get one fixed price in writing that only changes if you ask for more work.
It may not be. Much of Narraweena was built in the years after World War II, and cable from that period can have perished insulation, no earth wire or joins buried in the ceiling. Warning signs include flickering lights, warm switches, frequent fuse failures and outlets that feel loose. We test each circuit, tell you which parts are sound, and quote to replace only what needs it.
The board was built for a much smaller house. Many Narraweena homes have grown with extensions and second storeys, but still run on a few circuits sharing one old fuse board. Big loads like ovens, dryers and air conditioners then overload those circuits. We split the loads onto dedicated circuits, replace the board with modern breakers and add safety switches across the lot.
Yes. Over a third of Narraweena homes now have four or more bedrooms, and many families build up or out rather than move. We check that the supply and board can carry the extra load, run a sub-main to the new area, and plan lighting, power, heating and data with your builder so the rough-in is done before walls are lined.
It depends where the fault sits. Circuits from your own board into your townhouse normally belong to the lot owner, while main boards, driveway lights and shared equipment are usually common property. Once we locate the problem, the owner and the strata manager each receive our report naming whose side of the line it falls on.
Yes. The 2021 Census recorded 1.8 vehicles per dwelling in Narraweena, and most houses have a garage or carport. We check spare capacity at the board, run a dedicated circuit with the right protection and mount the charger where the cable reaches easily. On an older fuse board we will recommend an upgrade first so the charger has the protection it needs.
You need a working alarm on every storey. Faults reported by tenants need attention inside two business days, and any unit past ten years from its build date must come out. Mains-wired units are strictly a licensed electrician’s job. We fit and test smoke alarms for Narraweena landlords and leave a dated record for the agent.
Yes. The May Road shops on Warringah Road, the parish church and the local schools all need safe, reliable power. We fit LED lighting, add circuits for fridges and equipment, repair outdoor and car park lights and install exit and emergency lighting, booking the work before opening or during school holidays to avoid disruption.
The whole of Narraweena 2099, including Warringah Road, McIntosh Road, Willandra Road, Parr Parade, Alamein Avenue, Waratah Parade, Victor Road, Greenwood Avenue, The Circle, the May Road shops, Beverley Job Park, Nell Griffith Reserve, Parr Park and Nalya Reserve.
