Collaroy is best known for its beachfront, the rock pool and the seawall built after the 2016 storms stripped 50 metres of sand and threatened the houses along the front. Pittwater Rd carries the shopping strip and the apartment blocks, while Collaroy Plateau rises behind. Salt, sand and the occasional southerly battering shape what local sparkies have to plan for.
Beachfront Collaroy needs marine-grade everything, 316 stainless fittings, IP66 enclosures and properly sealed cable entries. And our residential and commercial teams install accordingly. Strata buildings along Pittwater Rd rely on our commercial work for common-area lighting, emergency lighting compliance and basement EV charger installs. After a big southerly, our 24/7 emergency service handles water-damaged boards and tripped mains, and our Level 2 ASP licence lets us replace storm-damaged service lines and meters without waiting for separate contractors.
A mix of beachfront and near-beach apartment blocks (many built between the 1960s and 1980s) along Pittwater Rd and the foreshore, plus detached family homes on the streets climbing up to Collaroy Plateau.
