Property maintenance in Surrey Hills
Excell Property Maintenance gives property managers, owners-corporation managers, and landlords with portfolios across Surrey Hills and the inner-east one front door for every maintenance trade. We coordinate the work on Victorian and Edwardian homes, the Union Road shopping village, and the prestige residential streets through one contact, one schedule, and one invoice per job — keeping homes and commercial stock tenanted, compliant, and presentable.
Housing stock
Surrey Hills' residential character is heritage-led — Victorian, Edwardian, and Federation villas preserved across substantial overlay precincts under City of Boroondara. The streets between Canterbury Road and Whitehorse Road carry the densest concentration of period housing, with mansion-scale homes on some larger lots. Apartment stock is limited; the suburb retains a strong detached-housing character.
Union Road and the heritage village
Union Road runs through Surrey Hills as a heritage local shopping village — a small Federation-era retail strip with cafes, specialty retail, and essential services. The streetscape preserves much of its early-20th-century character, with two-storey shopfronts and period detailing. Surrey Hills Railway Station on the Lilydale and Belgrave lines sits adjacent. The precinct carries heritage significance.
What the work tends toward
The work in Surrey Hills tends toward what a heritage-rich residential suburb with a heritage shopping village creates. On the residential side: Victorian, Federation, and Edwardian villa repair (slate roofs, original plasterwork, ornate cast-iron lacework, original chimneys, period-correct paint); mansion-scale property work where the overlay requires careful approval; heritage-aware extensions and make-good. On the commercial side along Union Road: heritage-significant Federation-era shopfronts requiring careful match-up; shopfront make-good between tenancies that preserves period detail; regulated electrical and plumbing for upper-level offices and apartments in the heritage stock.
