Built on Emerald Hill
Heritage records for the City of Port Phillip note that Emerald Hill became the first area outside Melbourne and Geelong to be declared a municipal district, in 1855, and changed its name to South Melbourne in 1883. The Emerald Hill heritage precinct keeps many of its 1880s buildings.
Today most occupied dwellings are apartments and more than a third are terraces or townhouses (ABS 2021). More than half of households rent.

Answers before you call
Can you add lighting to a narrow terrace without wrecking the ceiling?
We run cables through roof space or under floors where access allows, and talk through any patching before we start.
Do you work on shopfronts and cafes?
Yes. We install shop and display lighting, power for equipment, and emergency and exit lighting for retail and hospitality tenancies.
Can you work in a shop or office after hours?
Where the job allows, yes. We plan work to keep disruption to trading down.
