Estates one side, paddocks the other
Lower Duneed Road divides this suburb into two completely different sorts of work. We establish which side of it you are on before quoting, because almost nothing carries across.

What customers say
Published on our Google Business Profile, word for word.
Luke did a great job and was very flexible and understanding of our needs. He listened and was very helpful in explaining answers to our questions. I would highly recommend his work.
Luke was on time, considerate upon entering the house, and has a pleasant, friendly manner. He also gave excellent advice and suggestions/options for solving the problem, without "pushing" for one or the other. NEXTPOINT Electrics is to be highly recommended.
Luke at NextPoint was fantastic. Arrived on time both times he's done work, texted first to say he was on his way. Very quick, efficient and tidy with both jobs and a great guy to deal with. Highly recommend and will definitely use him again.
Luke was super efficient and communication on point. Came around the next day to quote for all ceiling fans replaced and was all done in less than a week. Highly recommend Luke and Nextpoint Electrics!
Absolutely terrific to work with. Luke’s professional manner coupled with friendliness, all the while keeping us updated on progress. Have no hesitation in recommending Luke.
Really impressed with Nextpoint Electrics! Friendly, professional, and got the job done promptly. Highly recommend for anyone needing an electrician you can trust.

Electrician Mount Duneed FAQ
Do you actually cover Mount Duneed?
Yes. It is one of the closer runs we make on the Geelong side from Ocean Grove, and it carries no distance loading. There is no call out fee and no distance loading.
Which parts of Mount Duneed do you cover?
All of it, the whole 3217 postcode, and the neighbouring towns with it. Both halves of it, the estates and the farmland, across the 3216 and 3217 postcodes it spans, and none of it far enough out to charge you extra for.
How quickly can you get to Mount Duneed?
It is one of the closer runs we make on the Geelong side from Ocean Grove, and it carries no distance loading. We do not promise a set response time, but you get a straight answer on the phone and a time on the day rather than an all day window.
Is there anything particular about the housing here?
The split is the thing. North of Lower Duneed Road is the Armstrong Creek growth area and almost everything there was built after 2010. South of it is still small-acreage farmland, hay, canola and cattle on working properties. Those are two entirely different jobs. On the estate side it is headroom on a modern board. On the farm side it is long runs to a shed or a pump, cable sized for the distance, and a private pole that is your asset rather than the network's. The suburb also genuinely carries two postcodes, 3216 and 3217, which catches people out.

About Mount Duneed
Mount Duneed takes its name from the volcanic cone at its centre, from a Gaelic word for a circular mound. The parish was mapped between 1847 and 1850, John Armstrong leased a station covering sixteen square miles here in 1852, and the land was subdivided for small farms between 1855 and 1860. There was a church by 1861, a school the year after, and a flour mill running from the 1860s until 1883.
One remarkable building survives from that period. Summerhill on Mount Duneed Road is a prefabricated iron cottage erected in 1854, brought out from England, two rooms of twenty-four feet by twelve with a curved roof, and it is on the Victorian Heritage Register as the only known single-storey curved roof cottage of its kind left in Victoria.
For a century and a half almost nothing changed. The population was 121 in 1911 and 126 in 1961. Then the Armstrong Creek growth area opened the land north of Lower Duneed Road to urban development from 2010, and the numbers moved very fast: 1,578 people at the 2016 census and 6,182 at the 2021 one, a near quadrupling in five years, with dwellings going from 587 to 2,377 in the same period.
The southern half did not change. The council describes the district as still primarily agricultural, with hay, canola, beef and cattle on small properties, and the historic village core remains a church, a primary school of around two hundred students and a wooden hall. Ninety-seven per cent of dwellings across the whole locality are freestanding houses, but they are two quite different kinds of house.
The practical version for a Mount Duneed owner: tell us which side of Lower Duneed Road you are on when you ring. It decides almost everything about the job.
If you are on acreage with a private pole, it is worth including in a visit for something else. It is your asset and nobody sends you a reminder about it.
