Trusted Electrician in Glebe. Heritage Homes, Glebe Point Road and University Precinct Since 1999.
Glebe occupies a peninsula between Blackwattle Bay, Rozelle Bay and Johnstons Creek, a suburb that has been continuously inhabited since European settlement and that contains some of the oldest surviving residential buildings in Australia. The streets between Glebe Point Road and the water contain Georgian cottages built in the 1830s and 1840s, Victorian terraces from the 1860s through to the 1890s, and Federation homes from the early 1900s. Many of these properties are heritage-listed under the Leichhardt Local Environmental Plan and carry specific obligations around the treatment of building fabric.
The electrical systems inside many of these extraordinary properties have not been comprehensively upgraded since their installation. Original ceramic fuse boxes, switchboards without safety switches on any circuit and wiring that dates back to early domestic electrical installations are all common findings in Glebe’s older housing stock. Monaco Electrical has upgraded switchboards in Georgian cottages on Glebe Point Road and Victorian terraces on Forest Lodge Road and Hereford Street, installed EV chargers for homeowners throughout the suburb, and delivered period-style cotton cable wiring installations for Glebe homeowners restoring heritage interiors to an authentic standard.
Glebe Point Road is one of Sydney’s most celebrated commercial strips, lined with bookshops, cafes, restaurants, bars and boutique businesses that operate from heritage shopfronts. These businesses require commercial electrical work from a licensed contractor who understands the heritage character of the buildings and the trading constraints of a busy village commercial environment. Monaco Electrical has worked with Glebe Point Road businesses since 1999.
Monaco Electrical is based in Alexandria, ten minutes from Glebe, and has been delivering licensed electrical work across the inner west since 1999. Every job is completed by licensed electricians with a Certificate of Compliance issued for all notifiable work.

Switchboard Upgrades in Glebe
Switchboard upgrades are the most critical electrical job Monaco Electrical carries out in Glebe.

The heritage significance of these buildings makes it even more important that the electrical work carried out in them is done correctly and with appropriate care for the original building fabric. Monaco Electrical assesses, upgrades and replaces switchboards across Glebe with genuine respect for the heritage property, installing correctly rated safety switches on every circuit and issuing a Certificate of Compliance on completion.

Glebe holds the full arc of Sydney’s residential history within a single suburb.

Monaco Electrical has worked across all of them since 1999.
Georgian Cottages
Glebe Point Rd, Forest Lodge Rd, St Johns Rd
Glebe’s Georgian cottages are among the oldest surviving residential buildings in Australia, built in the 1830s and 1840s during the suburb’s earliest period of development. These are among the most electrically sensitive properties Monaco Electrical works in. Original building fabric must be respected absolutely and all cable routing must be planned with genuine care for the historic masonry. Monaco Electrical handles switchboard upgrades, safety switch installation and cotton cable wiring in Glebe’s Georgian cottages.
Victorian Terraces
Hereford St, Glebe Point Rd, Toxteth Rd, Ferry Rd
The Victorian terrace rows along Hereford Street, Toxteth Road and the streets running down to Blackwattle Bay were built between the 1860s and the 1890s and represent the largest layer of Glebe’s housing stock. These terraces require switchboard upgrades with genuine care for the heritage property, safety switch installation on all circuits and period-style lighting that suits the character of the building. Monaco Electrical handles all of this with 25 years of inner-west terrace experience.
Federation Homes and Grand Terraces
Glebe Point Rd, Minogue Cres, Boyce St
The Federation homes and grand terrace rows along Glebe Point Road and Boyce Street represent Glebe’s most prominent residential layer from the Federation era. Many have been significantly renovated while retaining important heritage elements. Monaco Electrical installs cotton cable wiring, period-style heritage lighting and complete electrical upgrades for Glebe’s Federation homes, working alongside heritage architects and interior designers where restoration projects require it.
Glebe Point Road Commercial Strip
