Cherrybrook sits about 29 kilometres north-west of the Sydney CBD and has a character that sets it apart from most of the Hills District. Over 80% of dwellings are separate houses, with an average of nearly four bedrooms per home. Many are well-established family properties on generous, tree-lined blocks that give the suburb its quiet, leafy feel. Most of these homes were built during the 1980s and 1990s when the suburb was first properly developed, and a large number of them have been in the same hands ever since.
Households in Cherrybrook are primarily professional couples with children, with mortgage repayments commonly exceeding $4,000 per month. These are long-term owners who have invested seriously in their homes over the years and expect quality work when they call a tradesperson. Nearly half of Cherrybrook’s population was born overseas, reflecting a diverse and well-established community that has grown steadily since the suburb took shape. The homes here are well-loved and well-maintained, and when something needs upgrading or fixing, it gets done properly. GlobileNet handles all residential electrical work across the suburb. Licensed, insured and easy to deal with.
A large number of Cherrybrook’s family homes were built in the 1980s and 1990s and many are still running ageing wiring and older switchboards that were never sized for what a modern household draws. Multiple air conditioners, home offices, large kitchen appliances and entertainment setups all pull more power than those original boards were designed to handle. Many of these homes are also missing safety switches on all circuits or have boards that have never been inspected since they were installed. We come out, take a proper look at what is there and work through what needs to be addressed. We handle full switchboard upgrades, RCD (residual current device) installations and surge protection, and all work is done to the AS/NZS 3000 Wiring Rules so you know it is all right.
