Terraces, semis and cottages across the Inner West

Ambient announced its Inner West service in 2019. The Inner West Council area runs from Balmain across to Ashfield and down to Marrickville, and more than half of its homes are houses, semis or terraces rather than flats.

  • Victorian and Federation terraces through Enmore and Marrickville, where old wiring with cloth or rubber insulation can still turn up
  • Apartment buildings such as the one in Ashfield where Ambient worked in 2023, with common-property work arranged through a strata electrician
  • Shops and small venues along King Street and Enmore Road

Electrician Inner West: common questions

Do you cover the Inner West?

Ambient Electrical covers the Inner West Council area, from Peter's base in Bronte, about 10 km away, including after-hours emergency callouts. Call Peter on 0415 684 120.

Which electrical services suit Inner West homes?

The electrical services that suit Inner West homes best are switchboard upgrades, power points, and fault finding.

Can I do my own electrical work on my Inner West terrace?

DIY electrical work is dangerous and illegal in NSW, the NSW Government says, and electrical installation work must be done by a licensed electrician. Changing a light globe is fine; anything that touches the fixed wiring, such as a power point, light switch or light fitting, is a job for a licensed electrician. More in can I do my own electrical work.

Should the switchboard be checked when renovating an Inner West terrace?

A renovation that adds circuits, such as a new kitchen with an induction cooktop, or air conditioning, needs room on the switchboard and safety switch protection for the new work. An old board with rewireable fuses often has neither, so it is checked early, before walls are closed up, and upgraded if needed.
