Work planned around them.
A large share of Heidelberg West's homes are post-war brick and weatherboard houses, many now being renovated or replaced by townhouses.

Townhouses and semi-detached homes (42% here, 17% 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.
In postcode 3081, about 1,370 rooftop solar systems have been installed since 2001 and 113 home batteries since July 2025 (Clean Energy Regulator). Solar inverters, batteries and EV chargers all connect through the switchboard, so its capacity and space are worth checking before adding them.

05 / BEFORE WE GET STARTED
A few local questions.
Clear answers.
Do you service my part of Heidelberg West?
Yes. We work right across Heidelberg West (VIC 3081), up to the borders with Bundoora, Heidelberg Heights and Ivanhoe. Include your street in the enquiry so we can confirm the booking details.
I rent out a property in Heidelberg West. 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 54% of Heidelberg West's households rent (about 1,130 homes at the 2021 Census), so we can work with you or your agent on access and provide the written report.
My Heidelberg West 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 Heidelberg West 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.
