Mud brick, timber and bush blocks
Nillumbik Shire Council’s planning scheme notes the shire’s environmental buildings, including the Montsalvat artists’ colony in Eltham and mud-brick homes, as part of its artistic heritage.
Almost nine in ten occupied dwellings in Eltham are separate houses (ABS 2021). Houses with established gardens often suit path, step and garden lighting.

Good to know
Can you work on mud-brick or timber homes?
Yes. We plan cable routes around exposed brick, timber and raked ceilings so the finished work suits the house.
Can you light a long, sloping block?
Yes. We plan path, step and driveway lighting with weatherproof fittings, and can add timers or sensors.
Do I need a new switchboard to add circuits?
Not always. If the existing board has room and suitable protection, a circuit can be added to it. If it is full or has old fuses, we explain the upgrade options first.
