Background that shapes the job: The area became more accessible to visitors with the arrival of a railway line extension from Ringwood, completed in 1889. Construction period drives the switching arrangement we find. Ferntree Gully sits within a group of suburbs we are in constantly: Boronia, Knoxfield, Lysterfield and Rowville.

We are based in Boronia, about 2.7 kilometres south of Ferntree Gully. Close enough that the person who quotes the job is the person who comes back to do it. On the older parts of the area: Officially opened on 17 October 1959 as the Mountain Gate Estate, it was marketed as the "town of a thousand homes" incorporating a modern car-oriented shopping centre and public parkland.
