Is a Certificate of Compliance (CCEW) included on Gladesville jobs?

Every notifiable job in Gladesville — switchboard work, new circuits, safety switch installs — is finished with a Certificate of Compliance (CCEW) lodged with NSW Fair Trading. Copies are emailed to you.

Can you fix urgent power problems in Gladesville after hours?

Yes — after-hours faults in Gladesville (power loss, sparking outlets, tripped RCDs, no hot water) go to the on-call electrician. Real person on the phone, licensed sparky at your door.

Do you provide fixed prices for Gladesville homes?

Yes. Once we've seen the job in Gladesville we quote a fixed price before starting — no hourly surprises. Larger projects get an itemised written quote.

Where do you cover around Gladesville?

Our service area is Gladesville, all of Ryde/Hills, and neighbouring suburbs including Ryde, Putney, Meadowbank, West Ryde. Call 0468 404 608 for anything on the edge — we usually still make it work.

How many cameras do I need?

Most homes are well covered by 4-6 cameras: front door, driveway, side access, backyard, and (optionally) an internal downstairs zone. Larger properties or businesses usually run 8-16.

How much does a CCTV install cost in Gladesville?

A neatly installed 4-camera 4K IP system with NVR and app viewing starts around $2,200. 8-camera systems from $3,400. Commercial systems with access control or ANPR are quoted per site.

Can I view the cameras on my phone?

Yes — every install includes mobile app setup on your phone, with push notifications on motion, live viewing and playback from anywhere.

How long does the footage stay?

Standard configuration keeps 30-60 days of continuous recording locally on the NVR hard drive. Optional cloud backup preserves motion clips longer for critical events.

IP or analogue — what should I install?

IP over PoE, every time. It's higher resolution, uses one cable per camera, is easier to expand, and integrates with doorbells and access control. Analogue is legacy tech we only recommend when reusing existing coax on a budget.

Can you upgrade my existing analogue system?

Yes — either full replacement to IP/PoE, or a hybrid recorder that keeps your existing coax for some cameras while adding IP cameras where you need higher resolution.

Are you a registered cabler?

Yes — registered ACMA cabler, which is legally required in Australia for any CCTV/data cabling work.

CCTV · GLADESVILLE

CCTV & Security Systems in Gladesville — done properly, first visit

A properly designed CCTV system is a burglary deterrent, an evidence tool, and a way to check on the property from anywhere. We design and install IP CCTV — 4K cameras over PoE cabling to a hard-wired NVR — not battery Wi-Fi cameras that drop out when you need them most. Every install includes on-site local recording (30-60 days), mobile app viewing, and optional cloud backup for critical footage.

Camera choice matters more than resolution. We spec turret or dome cameras for the front and back of the property, a wide-angle bullet for the driveway, and a low-light colour camera for the darkest approach — with true IR (not just "night mode" that greys out at 5m). Doorbells, intercoms and access-control cameras integrate with the same NVR so you have one app for everything.

As registered ACMA cablers we run the CAT6 neatly through the roof space and down internal walls, with the NVR in a cupboard, garage or comms cabinet — no exposed cable, no daisy-chained power supplies, no ugly rooftop conduit. Full walk-through on the app included on hand-over.

HOW THE JOB RUNS

Every cctv job, same 4 steps

STEP 1
Site design
We walk the property, mark camera positions, angles and cable runs, and quote a fixed price for the full system.
STEP 2
PoE cabling
CAT6 pulled neatly through the roof space and internal walls, terminated to a PoE switch or PoE NVR in the location of your choice.
STEP 3
Camera install and aim
Cameras mounted, aimed for optimal coverage, and set for correct night-vision and motion-detection zones.
STEP 4
Configure and hand over
NVR configured, mobile app installed and tested on your phone, recording schedule set, and a walk-through so you know exactly how to use it.

RECENT JOBS

Anonymised examples from around Gladesville

4-camera PoE system for a freestanding home

A family in Gladesville wanted full coverage of their front, side and back yard. We ran shielded Cat6 to four PoE cameras, mounted an NVR in the garage and set up remote viewing on their phones. Most of the housing on this side of Gladesville is Federation homes, so we planned cable routes and fixing points around that before touching a tool. Jobs like this between Gladesville Bridge and Tarban Creek Reserve are part of our regular Gladesville run, so callouts here rarely wait long.

5 hrs on siteFour-camera coverage installed, remote viewing configured.

Driveway and entry camera upgrade

An ageing analogue camera at a Gladesville driveway was replaced with a modern PoE unit covering a wider angle. We re-used the existing cable run where possible and added a doorbell camera at the front entry. Gladesville falls inside postcode 2111 on our Ryde/Hills route, so we quote up front and finish to AS/NZS 3000 with a compliance certificate.

3.3 hrs on siteWider driveway coverage, added entry camera, single app for both.

I highly recommend Joe, he's very skilled, kind and does honest work. He did a massive last minute job for us, installing an entire 17.4kw ducted aircon system after our old unit broke.

It was an extremely exceptional service from Joe! He came to replace my cooktop on my rented unit then went above and beyond liaising and explaining with my property manager.

I recently had Joe fix two exhaust fans at my place, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the service. Joe showed up on time, explained everything clearly, and fixed the issues quickly.
