Planning your job in Gladesville
Gladesville mixes older houses, many of them post-war brick homes with some earlier cottages among them, with apartment buildings along and near Victoria Road. The older houses often still have early switchboards, limited safety switch protection and wiring that has been added to over many years. Apartment work ranges from simple repairs inside a unit to changes to common property, such as car park lighting or EV charging, that need the owners corporation’s approval.
Work around your property
Gladesville is a short drive from our base in Ryde. Shops, cafés and offices along Victoria Road can book repairs, lighting upgrades and new circuits outside trading hours. A house being renovated or extended is a good chance to update the switchboard and plan circuits for air conditioning, kitchens and outdoor areas. Every job starts with a free, written quote with the price agreed before work begins, and wiring work comes with a CCEW.

Your questions
Electrical questions in Gladesville
Our Gladesville shop on Victoria Road needs better lighting. Where do we start?
Start with what the lighting needs to do: show stock clearly, light the counter or make the shopfront visible at night. We look at the existing fittings, circuits and switching, then suggest LED options and controls such as timers or sensors. LED fittings generally use less power and need less maintenance than older types. We quote in writing and can do the work outside trading hours.
Can you add power points to an older Gladesville house without much damage to the walls?
Usually. In houses with timber floors and an accessible roof space, cables can often be run from above or below to reach new positions. Solid brick internal walls are harder, and some positions may need chasing or a surface-mounted cover. We look at the construction and access first, explain the options and tell you before starting if any patching will be needed.
How is the price worked out?
The scope, fittings, condition of the existing wiring and access all affect the price. Our cost guides give Sydney market ranges to help you budget; they are not a quote for your property. Xcel Electrical provides a free written quote explaining the agreed work and price before it starts. If testing reveals further work, we explain the options before proceeding.
What access should I arrange for the visit?
Keep the work area and switchboard accessible, tell us about parking or locked gates, and arrange entry to any rooms involved. For an apartment or shared building, also check meter-room access, lift bookings and permitted work hours with the building manager. Confirm approval for work affecting common property.
Will the power need to be turned off?
Many electrical jobs require the affected circuit to be isolated while work is carried out. A switchboard job may interrupt power to the whole property. We explain the expected interruption when planning the work. Tell us about medical equipment, refrigeration, business operations or anything else that needs an uninterrupted supply so suitable arrangements can be made.
