FITZROY NORTH / MELBOURNE'S INNER NORTH
Homes in Fitzroy North.
Work planned around them.
Fitzroy North is one of Melbourne's older suburbs, where many homes are Victorian and Edwardian terraces and cottages set among newer townhouses and apartments.
At the 2021 Census, Fitzroy North had about 6,250 homes: 14% separate houses, 49% townhouses, terraces or semi-detached homes and 36% flats and apartments. Renters make up about 49% of Fitzroy North's households; 25% of homes are owned outright and 22% are mortgaged. Neighbouring Brunswick East (23%) and Carlton (1%) sit either side of Fitzroy North on this measure.
Townhouses and semi-detached homes (49% here, 14% of all homes being two storeys or more) often have the meter box, switchboard and garage in different places, so cable routes are planned before anything is quoted.
Clean Energy Regulator records show about 1,440 small-scale solar systems installed in postcode 3068 since 2001, and 179 home batteries since July 2025. Solar inverters, batteries and EV chargers all connect through the switchboard, so its capacity and space are worth checking before adding them. By comparison, the share of households renting is higher in neighbouring Brunswick East (53%) and Carlton (72%).
Fitzroy North sits within the Yarra council area. We also work in the suburbs next door: Brunswick East, Carlton, Carlton North and Collingwood. Local landmarks include Edinburgh Gardens and St Georges Road.

05 / BEFORE WE GET STARTED
A few local questions.
Clear answers.
Do you service my part of Fitzroy North?
Yes. We work right across Fitzroy North (VIC 3068), up to the borders with Brunswick East, Carlton and Carlton North. Include your street in the enquiry so we can confirm the booking details.
I rent out a property in Fitzroy North. What electrical checks does it need?
Victorian rental providers must arrange an electrical safety check at least every two years, and smoke alarms need to be tested every year. About 49% of Fitzroy North's households rent (about 2,670 homes at the 2021 Census), so we can work with you or your agent on access and provide the written report.
Can you work in apartments and units in Fitzroy North?
Yes. 36% of homes in Fitzroy North are flats or apartments, many in buildings of four storeys or more. Work in an apartment can involve the owners corporation, a shared meter room and booked access, so we confirm those details before scheduling.
My Fitzroy North home is older. Should the switchboard be checked?
It is worth checking before adding major load such as air conditioning, an induction cooktop or an EV charger. Older boards can have rewireable fuses or circuits without safety-switch protection. We assess the board and explain what, if anything, needs to change.
What should I send for a quote?
Tell us what you want changed, your street in Fitzroy North and any access details. For a townhouse, mention where the meter box and switchboard are. Photos are optional; there is no need to remove electrical covers.
