Zak and Ryan did a amazing job. Even with the obstacles of a double story home with a internal switch board they persevered in the heat and got the job done. Thanks guys we realy appreciate your work and polite attitude.

WHAT THIS JOB COVERS
We assess the home, existing gas appliances, electricity use, switchboard capacity, supply, roof and practical equipment positions before writing a staged electrification plan. The quote sets out the sequence, electrical preparation and each agreed installation stage. For heating, hot water, cooking, solar, batteries, EV charging and gas abolishment, see the full detail on whole-home electrification.
LOCAL CONDITIONS
Whole-home electrification in Upwey, in practice
At about 974 people per square kilometre, Upwey has properties with the roof area to generate genuinely useful amounts, which changes the economics of everything else. At about 220 metres, Upwey is high and cold, and a poorly sized heat pump will disappoint through July.
Upwey sits about 33 kilometres out in Yarra Ranges. Ducted gas heating is the biggest single item to replace here. In Yarra Ranges, which includes Upwey, the applications that matter are the distributor's and the rebate scheme's, not the council's.
We work across Belgrave Heights, Ferntree Gully and Ferny Creek on the same trip, and Upwey sits in the middle of that loop. For scale, the 2021 census counted 6818 people in Upwey, across about 7 square kilometres of Yarra Ranges, postcode 3158.
Day to day we are across Upwey and the streets either side of it: Belgrave Heights, Ferntree Gully, Ferny Creek and Lysterfield. Same crew, same rates, same certificate at the end. From our Boronia workshop Upwey is about 6 kilometres south-east, which is a short enough run that we can usually fit a look-in around another job rather than making it a separate trip.

Real questions, straight answers
There is no travel premium for Upwey. It sits roughly 6 kilometres south-east of Boronia, which is a normal run for us. You are quoted the same way a Boronia job is quoted.
The neighbouring suburbs we work are Belgrave Heights, Ferntree Gully, Ferny Creek and Lysterfield. A Upwey booking often slots into a run we already have through them.
Yarra Ranges covers Upwey, postcode 3158. The paperwork that matters is the electrical safety certificate, not a council form.
No. Almost nobody does. The plan exists so you can do one stage now and the rest later without redoing work, the switchboard and cabling are sized for the finished house from day one.
ENERGY. OPTIMISED FOR LIFE.
