Most of our Yarraville work sits in the pocket between Anderson Street, Ballarat Street and the Yarraville Village end of Somerville Road, where double-fronted and single-fronted Victorian cottages dominate. These homes share a familiar set of problems: a bathroom tacked onto the back of the original footprint, a laundry sharing the same wet area, low ceilings under a skillion roof, and stumps or bearers that have moved over a century.
