Chippendale homes
In the 2021 Census almost nine in ten of Chippendale's homes (88%) were flats or apartments, and about three quarters (76%) were rented. The Dictionary of Sydney says much of the suburb is covered with nineteenth century workers' terraces and old industrial buildings, and that Chippendale was one of the first places where factories and warehouses were converted into homes.
In a Chippendale apartment, one small job can involve the owner, a property manager and a strata manager. If you need an electrician in Chippendale, Impulse Electrical Enterprise works inside apartments and with the strata manager on common areas, and handles repairs, smoke alarms and safety switch testing for landlords and agents. We also replace old switchboards in terraces and add lighting and power in converted warehouse spaces.
Chippendale is in the City of Sydney council area, and parts of the inner city are in heritage conservation areas, so changes to a building in one may need council approval. Owners can check using the City of Sydney heritage information.
