MELBOURNE CBD / THE CENTRE OF MELBOURNE
Homes in Melbourne CBD.
Work planned around them.
Melbourne CBD is mostly apartments and mixed-use buildings.
Melbourne CBD is home to about 54,940 people in about 39,650 dwellings (2021 Census), almost all of them (99%) flats and apartments. Renters make up about 71% of Melbourne CBD's households; 13% of homes are owned outright and 13% are mortgaged. By comparison, the share of homes that are flats or apartments is lower in neighbouring Carlton (81%) and East Melbourne (74%).
With most homes in apartment buildings (97% are in buildings of four storeys or more), electrical work here often involves the owners corporation, a shared meter room and booked access. Inside the apartment, typical jobs are lighting, extra power points, appliance connections and data.
Clean Energy Regulator records show 114 small-scale solar systems installed in postcode 3000 since 2001. Solar inverters, batteries and EV chargers all connect through the switchboard, so its capacity and space are worth checking before adding them. Neighbouring Carlton (72%) and East Melbourne (53%) sit either side of Melbourne CBD on this measure.
Melbourne CBD is split between the Melbourne council area (about 82% of the suburb) and Port Phillip. We also work in the suburbs next door: Carlton, East Melbourne, North Melbourne and Parkville. Local landmarks include Federation Square and Southern Cross Station.

Yes. We work right across Melbourne CBD (VIC 3000), on both the Melbourne and Port Phillip sides of the council boundary, up to the borders with Carlton, East Melbourne and North Melbourne. Include your street in the enquiry so we can confirm the booking details.

Victorian rental providers must arrange an electrical safety check at least every two years, and smoke alarms need to be tested every year. About 71% of Melbourne CBD's households rent (about 19,500 homes at the 2021 Census), so we can work with you or your agent on access and provide the written report.
