Waverton is a quiet pocket of the Lower North Shore, built around Waverton station and the harbourside reserves at Balls Head and Berrys Bay. The streets off Bay Rd and Woolcott St are lined with Federation homes and small apartment blocks, most of them well kept and many still on their original wiring. It is a calm, mostly residential suburb, which means the work here is steady house and unit jobs rather than big commercial fit-outs.
That mix of older detached homes and small unit blocks creates a steady run of work. The Federation houses often need rewires, switchboard upgrades and updated lighting once an owner renovates, and many switchboards are still the old fuse type that we replace with RCBO-protected boards. The apartment blocks bring strata jobs like common-area lighting, stairwell and basement circuits and emergency exit light testing. We also fit EV chargers at houses and units, install safety switches and smoke alarms, and handle Level 2 mains and metering work direct with Ausgrid.
