The walls that cop it in Dulwich

Housing in Dulwich is compact prestige — villas, maisonettes and refined infill minutes from the city. Flat to gently rising, with the parklands edge giving the suburb its leafy frame. The ground beneath is deep reactive clay shared with the rest of the inner east, hard-baked by late summer, and the suburb sits inside the City of Burnside area. Local reference points include the eastern parklands edge, Kensington Road and Victoria Park nearby. For gyprock repairs, that mix is what decides how a job is scoped, which is why the block is looked at before anything is quoted.
