Deakin University's Burwood campus and the tram along Burwood Highway shape this suburb. Student rentals, post-war family homes and new townhouses all sit within a few streets of each other.
Burwood homes
Burwood's housing grew mostly after the Second World War: brick and weatherboard homes on suburban blocks, with some interwar houses and 1960s and 70s units scattered throughout. Deakin's campus has brought student accommodation and a steady rental market, and many original houses have been replaced by townhouses or larger family homes. Rental properties often need safety work, such as smoke alarms, safety switches and checks on older wiring, and landlords want things tidy and compliant. Owner-occupiers renovating post-war homes run into the usual limits of a small original board. Townhouses add a different set of needs, from extra lighting to EV charging in single garages.

“Have used Steve at Select Electrical for a few years now in my role as a residential facilities manager, have used him from large scale works as well as small repairs with both the body corporate as well as private lot or house owners. I can always trust that they are going to do a job right and share their findings with the clients or myself in a professional and friendly manner as they go. A real pleasure to deal with.”

“Steve helped us out with some AC installs, a new switchboard and new circuits to enable a complete kitchen redo. He was able to start quickly and the work was done on time as promised. Would definitely hire again!”

Switchboards
“Steven provided a good and accurate quote over the phone and the job came in on price. Contacted about arrival time the night before and showed up when expected. The outdoor power point was installed within 20 minutes and the job was finished and cleaned well. Nice to deal with and enjoyed our dog coming by to check out what was going on.”
