Fibre splicing joins optical fibre with a fusion splicer and verifies the result with an OTDR or power meter.

We assess the fault or proposed link, fibre type, route, conduit, termination points and testing requirements before setting the scope. The quote covers the agreed hauling, fusion splicing, enclosures, terminations and documented loss testing. For repairs, building-to-building links, OTDR testing and fibre installation details, see the full detail on optical fibre splicing.
Around 2600 people per square kilometre in Canterbury means loss budgets are generous and the work is about workmanship. Canterbury sits low at about 70 metres, where trenching is straightforward and conduit runs are direct.
Canterbury is about 10 kilometres from the CBD, where most fibre work is in small commercial buildings and converted terraces rather than in the ground. In Boroondara, which includes Canterbury, there is no application to lodge for fibre work.
Given how close Canterbury sits to Balwyn and Camberwell, a follow-up visit usually costs you nothing extra in travel. There were 7800 people living in Canterbury at the 2021 census, spread over around 3 square kilometres in Boroondara, postcode 3126.
Worth knowing before we quote: == History == The railway station is in many ways responsible for the suburb's existence: before the opening of the railway to the City in 1882, the area was a semi-rural area. Development era tells us whether there is existing conduit in the ground, which is the difference between a short job and a long one. Canterbury sits within a group of suburbs we are in constantly: Balwyn, Camberwell, Hawthorn East and Kew East.
We are based in Boronia, about 18.7 kilometres west of Canterbury. Close enough that the person who quotes the job is the person who comes back to do it. And on the history that shaped the streets: The first subdivision in the area came in 1885, when Michael Logan created the 'Claremont Park Estate' within the area of Canterbury Road, Bryson Street, Prospect Hill Road and Logan Street.
A further note on how the streets came to be: In 1900 Snowden's estate was subdivided and sold off to form what is now Monomeath Avenue and residents such as notable architect Percey Kernot and prominent citizen George Coghill moved in.

Ryan and Jack did a great job doing the electrical work on my new 4 head split system. They got the job done in no time, and my split systems were up and running. Once connected, Ryan made sure all 4 heads were working. Thanks guys, great job!

No. Canterbury is about 18.7 kilometres west of our Boronia workshop, well inside the area we cover every week, so there is no travel loading on the quote. The call-out and the first half hour are priced before we start.
Everything immediately around Canterbury, including Balwyn, Camberwell, Hawthorn East and Kew East. We treat the group as one working area rather than separate bookings.
Boroondara covers Canterbury, postcode 3126. The paperwork that matters is the electrical safety certificate, not a council form.
Almost always repaired. We locate the break, splice it and test the link, replacing an entire run is a last resort when the conduit itself has failed.
Tell us about the damaged fibre or proposed link. We’ll assess the route, terminations and testing requirements, then provide a clear fibre scope. Book an assessment or call our Boronia crew to discuss the work.
