Shopfront on Forest Road near the old art deco bank, a Federation cottage on Gladstone Street, or a townhouse near Bexley Park and the golf course? Limited-time Bexley pricing specials are running. Tell us about the offer when you call to book.
Bexley grew from James Chandler’s 1822 estate, named after his Kentish birthplace, and subdivision for home sites was under way by 1856. The 2021 Census shows 53.1 per cent separate houses, 25.5 per cent semis, terraces or townhouses (more than twice the NSW share) and 20.6 per cent flats. We rewire Federation cottages around Gladstone Street and Harrow Road, upgrade fuse boards in inter-war bungalows and plan power for kitchen and extension work in dual-occupancy builds.
Forest Road is the commercial spine, with the art deco former Commonwealth Bank building at the Bexley Road and Harrow Road corner and the Forest Inn Hotel down at Stoney Creek Road. We handle lighting, refrigeration, signage and shop fit-outs for cafes, grocers and service businesses along the strip.
We offer same-day service right across 2207, from Bardwell Creek Reserve down to Bexley Park. Urgent Bexley faults usually mean an old cottage fuse melting, a townhouse losing half its circuits after a storm, or a Forest Road shop cool room tripping on a hot day.
Bexley work comes from a broad mix of people. Owners of 1900s cottages want old cable replaced without harming pressed-metal ceilings; townhouse residents need shared boards sorted; and landlords, with 26.1 per cent of homes rented, want alarms and safety switches ready before the next lease. As the Bexley electrician many locals already trust, we also serve cafes and grocers along Forest Road.
Streets here were laid out long before air conditioning, so original supply to many houses is light. We see older homes adding ducted cooling, induction cooking and ceiling fans, then wondering why fuses blow. We sort the board, split the load and add safety switches. If you have a dangerous fault, our same-day emergency electricians come from jobs nearby across St George and Canterbury-Bankstown.
Gladstone Street and Harrow Road still have early cottages with verandahs and original detailing. We rewire from the roof and subfloor so ceilings, cornices and fretwork stay intact.
A quarter of Bexley homes are semis, terraces or townhouses. We sort shared meter panels, separate each dwelling's circuits and clarify what the owners corporation is responsible for.
About 26.1 per cent of Bexley dwellings are rented. We fit hard-wired smoke alarms on each storey, add RCD protection and leave dated paperwork for property managers.
The Forest Road strip mixes older shopfronts with food businesses. We add dedicated circuits for coffee machines and cool rooms, upgrade lighting and fit exit signs to current standards.
Our licensed electricians have worked inside many Bexley cottages from the early 1900s and know how their wiring runs through lath ceilings and timber floors.
We quote after a visit, never over the phone. A Federation cottage on Harrow Road and a newer townhouse near Bexley Park each get a separate written fixed price.
A melted fuse in a Bexley cottage or a dead cool room on Forest Road gets moved up our schedule, with crews usually working nearby in Kogarah or Rockdale.
Bexley homeowners, landlords and Forest Road business owners are part of our 250+ customers, and a lot of new jobs here come from word of mouth.
Every circuit we wire in a Bexley home or shop carries a lifetime labour guarantee, including rewires hidden behind original plaster in period cottages.
Tell us if parking is tight on your street, whether there is rear lane access, or if tenants need notice, and we will book around it.
We inspect the board, the wiring and any heritage details, explain what is needed in plain language, and email you one fixed figure before work begins.
Forest Road traffic can slow things down at peak times, so we plan ahead and arrive in the time window we promised, calling if anything changes.
Drop sheets protect original floors, all rubbish leaves with us, and you get the compliance certificate plus a short summary of the work done on your Bexley property.

Bexley land was being subdivided for homes from 1856, and early cottages with verandahs and wrought-iron detail still line streets like Gladstone Street and Harrow Road. Their original wiring was never designed for air conditioning, induction cooking and home offices, which makes a rewire the job we quote most here.
Every Bexley job is covered by a Certificate of Compliance for Electrical Work, lodged as NSW requires. In cottages built over a century ago, disturbing wiring often exposes brittle insulation and missing earths, so we bring that work up to standard. Under AS/NZS 3000, any board alteration means RCD protection on each final subcircuit, and Type AC units have not been allowed in new work since 1 May 2023.
Your price is fixed and in writing before we pick up a tool. Bexley jobs vary a lot: new downlights in a modern townhouse are straightforward, while the same fittings in a 1900s cottage with pressed-metal ceilings and little roof space take far more care. We inspect, explain and commit to one figure.
Old fuses in a Gladstone Street cottage, a townhouse board that keeps tripping or a Forest Road shop needing more power? Call 02 8999 3691. We come out, inspect the work, give you a written fixed price and guarantee the labour for life.
Bexley cottage owners, townhouse residents, landlords and Forest Road shopkeepers ask us these most often. If yours is not covered here, call us on 02 8999 3691.
Usually. Our hours are 7am to 5:30pm on weekdays and 7am to 2pm on Saturdays, and our vans move between Kogarah, Rockdale and Hurstville jobs daily. Call 02 8999 3691 early for the best chance of a same-day visit. Signs of danger like heat around an outlet or a crackling board are handled first.
We only quote once we have seen the job. Bexley has everything from new townhouses to cottages more than a century old, and the same task can take very different time and care in each. We look at the property, discuss the options and give you a written fixed price. It stays the same unless you ask for more work.
Probably, at least partly. Many Bexley cottages were built in the early 1900s and have been added to over decades, so we often find old rubber or cloth cable mixed with newer wiring, poor earthing and no safety switches. We test every circuit, show you what is sound, and quote a rewire that protects original ceilings and joinery.
Wiring from your own unit board into your home is normally yours to maintain, while main switchboards, shared lighting and driveway power are usually common property. With 25.5 per cent of Bexley homes being semis or townhouses, we deal with this often. We find the fault and give both you and the strata manager a clear written report.
You need a working alarm on every level, repairs within two business days of a tenant reporting a fault, and replacement of any alarm older than ten years from manufacture. Hard-wired alarms must be installed by a licensed electrician. Around a quarter of Bexley homes are rented, so we complete these jobs regularly and supply records for your agent.
Yes. Many Bexley cottages have high ceilings that suit fans well. We check the ceiling structure and add proper mounting where needed, run cable through the roof space and wire each fan to its own control. In homes with pressed-metal or ornate plaster ceilings, we position fittings carefully to protect the original features.
We can. The Forest Road strip has a mix of older shopfronts, cafes and service businesses, and many need more capacity for modern equipment. We install dedicated circuits for coffee machines, refrigeration and ovens, upgrade lighting, fit emergency and exit lights and schedule noisy work outside trading hours.
Yes. Bexley households average 1.7 vehicles, and many houses have a driveway or rear garage. We assess whether your board can handle the extra load, run a dedicated circuit with Type A protection and mount the charger where it suits your parking. For townhouses, we can help you prepare for owners corporation approval.
In older Bexley homes it is often a sign of an overloaded circuit, a loose connection at the board or a light supply that was never upgraded. Air conditioners draw a surge when starting. We test voltage drop, check connections and move heavy appliances onto dedicated circuits. If the problem is network-side, we will tell you so you can contact Ausgrid.
All of Bexley 2207, including Forest Road, Stoney Creek Road, Bexley Road, Harrow Road, Gladstone Street, Queen Victoria Street and the streets around Bexley Park, Seaforth Park, the golf course and Bardwell Creek Reserve. We also work regularly in Kogarah, Penshurst, Roselands, South Hurstville, Campsie, Canterbury and Belmore.
