At around 3787 people per square kilometre, Camberwell has the smaller roof planes that come with subdivided blocks. A well-designed 6.6 kW system usually beats a badly split 10 kW one. Camberwell is at approximately 57 metres. On the flats the east-west split is often the better design, spreading output across the day instead of peaking at noon.
At about 10 kilometres from the CBD, Camberwell has period roofing where tile condition matters. We check the roof before we promise a mounting method. Boroondara covers Camberwell. We check the overlay on the address at quoting stage rather than discovering it after the panels arrive.
Camberwell shares a boundary with Burwood and Canterbury, so a booking here often slots into a run we are already doing. Camberwell spans roughly 5.8 square kilometres of Boroondara. Postcode 3124, and 21965 people at the 2021 census.
For what it is worth when we are on the roof: The Kasouka Estate was created in 1891 and included Kasouka Road, Trafalgar, Prospect Hill and Riversdale Roads. Tile age and batten condition follow from that history. Burwood, Canterbury, Glen Iris and Hawthorn East and Camberwell form one continuous area for us rather than a list of separate suburbs.
From our Boronia workshop Camberwell is about 19.1 kilometres west, which is a short enough run that we can usually fit a look-in around another job rather than making it a separate trip. For context on the older parts of the suburb: === 21st century ===
==== Camberwell Station redevelopment ====
Opposition similar to that facing the Podgor redevelopment was mounted regarding plans dating from 1999 to develop Camberwell railway station to incorporate retail and office development.
