Dover Heights sits on the headland between Bondi and Vaucluse, a suburb of clifftop family homes with ocean views set along quiet streets. The land runs out to the walking track at Rodney Reserve and the lookouts on Military Rd, where homes catch the full sweep of the coast and the southerly weather that comes with it. There is no railway and few shops, so it stays residential and calm. Most properties are detached houses on sloping blocks, many held by the same families for years.
That housing mix keeps our residential team busy. Older homes near the reserve still run tired switchboards and original wiring that needs upgrading, while renovated and extended houses want new circuits, downlights, data and smart-home wiring. The ocean exposure means a lot of outdoor and garden lighting using salt-resistant fittings, plus pool and spa wiring on the steep blocks. EV charger installs are growing as families add a charger to the garage, often with a three-phase upgrade to suit.
