Heidelberg sits at about 2,726 people per square kilometre, the detached-housing pattern that makes up most of our work: accessible roof space, an external board, and circuits we can isolate and test properly. Heidelberg sits low at about 51 metres, mostly single-storey with a continuous roof space, which is the easiest construction to work in.
Being roughly 11 kilometres from town, Heidelberg has lath and plaster, limited ceiling access and extensions that created a second roof space nobody documented. For Heidelberg, Banyule has no role in ordinary electrical work. The standard is the wiring rules and the proof is the certificate.
We work across Bulleen, Eaglemont and Heidelberg Heights on the same trip, and Heidelberg sits in the middle of that loop. Heidelberg covers about 2.7 square kilometres of Banyule. The 2021 census put the population at 7,360, and the postcode is 3084.
We are across Heidelberg along with Bulleen, Eaglemont, Heidelberg Heights and Ivanhoe, on the same rates and the same certificate. At roughly 22.6 kilometres north-west of Boronia, Heidelberg is inside the area we cover every week rather than on its edge.
Heidelberg railway station is the historic centre of Heidelberg, and the housing around it reflects that.
