Electrician Woollahra: common questions
Do you cover Woollahra?

Which electrical services suit Woollahra homes?
The electrical services that suit Woollahra homes best are lighting design, switchboard upgrades, and strata electrical work.
Can period-style light switches be fitted in a Woollahra terrace?
Period-style switches and power points, such as toggle or dolly switches in brass or ceramic, can replace modern ones in a Woollahra terrace and are installed the same way, by a licensed electrician who checks the wiring behind the old fittings at the same time. In an older terrace that wiring can be decades old, so swapping the switches is a good moment to find out what is in the walls.
What lighting suits a gallery or antique shop in Woollahra?
Adjustable track or spot lighting lets each piece be lit on its own, and LED fittings with a high colour rendering index show colours as they really are. LEDs also run far cooler than halogen and use about 75% less energy, according to energy.gov.au, which matters with delicate pieces under the lights all day. Dimmable fittings on separate circuits let the lighting change with each display.
