MALVERN EAST / MELBOURNE'S INNER SOUTH-EAST
Homes in Malvern East.
Work planned around them.
Much of Malvern East's housing is period homes, from Edwardian houses and Californian bungalows to interwar brick homes, many extended or renovated over the years.
The 2021 Census counted about 8,320 occupied homes in Malvern East, made up of 53% separate houses, 24% townhouses, terraces or semi-detached homes and 22% flats and apartments. About 31% of households in Malvern East rent, 36% own their home outright and 31% are paying off a mortgage. By comparison, the share of homes that are separate houses is lower in neighbouring Carnegie (32%) and Caulfield North (36%).
54% of separate houses in Malvern East have four or more bedrooms. Larger homes tend to carry more electrical load (heating and cooling, induction cooking, EV charging), so the switchboard and supply are checked before new load is added.
Clean Energy Regulator records show about 1,760 small-scale solar systems installed in postcode 3145 since 2001, and 286 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. The share of households with two or more cars is 52% in Malvern East, higher than in next-door Carnegie (36%) and Caulfield North (44%).
Malvern East sits within the Stonnington council area. We also work in the suburbs next door: Carnegie, Caulfield North, Chadstone and Glen Iris. Local landmarks include Waverley Road and Central Park.

05 / BEFORE WE GET STARTED
A few local questions.
Clear answers.
Do you service my part of Malvern East?
Yes. We work right across Malvern East (VIC 3145), up to the borders with Carnegie, Caulfield North and Chadstone. Include your street in the enquiry so we can confirm the booking details.
I rent out a property in Malvern East. 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 31% of Malvern East's households rent (about 2,570 homes at the 2021 Census), so we can work with you or your agent on access and provide the written report.
My Malvern East 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 Malvern East and any access details. If you have chosen a fitting or appliance, include the model. Photos are optional; there is no need to remove electrical covers.
