Sustainable Design Backed by Science
At Joesika Design, we provide professional and fully accredited energy rating Geelong services for homeowners, builders, and developers. Based in South Geelong and servicing the wider Surf Coast and Bellarine regions, we specialise in helping clients meet mandatory energy efficiency standards while improving the performance and comfort of their buildings.
As qualified Thermal Performance Assessors, we use advanced software (FirstRate5, BERS, etc.) to provide accurate, compliant, and easy-to-understand energy reports for all residential projects—new builds, renovations, extensions, and multi-unit developments.
Your Go-To Provider for Reliable Energy Rating Geelong
In Victoria, all new homes and major renovations must achieve a minimum 6-Star energy rating under the National Construction Code (NCC). That’s where we come in.
Our energy efficiency services include:
- NatHERS 6-Star Energy Ratings: We assess and certify your project’s thermal performance using accredited software recognised by the Nationwide House Energy Rating Scheme (NatHERS).
- Preliminary Design Advice: We review your early plans and provide expert guidance on layout, orientation, window sizes, and materials to maximise efficiency before submission.
- Energy Reports for Council Permits: All reports meet local Geelong council requirements and include clear documentation for planning and building approvals.
- Second Dwellings & Granny Flats: Whether for rental income or family, we provide space-efficient, council-compliant second dwelling designs.
- Multiple Dwelling & Subdivision Assessments: We can assess several dwellings on the same site with optimised, cost-effective strategies for compliance and sustainability.
- Upgrade Recommendations: If your design falls short, we’ll advise on the most economical and achievable ways to improve your star rating without blowing your budget.
In addition to our architectural services, we can offer our clients in-house thermal performance assessments. Whether it is a 7 star whole-of-home report for a new build, or a deemed to satisfy solution for an alteration or addition. We can also produce SDA reports for unit developments and Part J reports for commercial projects. Our extensive knowledge of passive design principles will make achieving your thermal assessment a breeze.
We don’t just tick a compliance box-we help you build smarter, greener, and more cost-effective homes. That’s why more locals trust our energy rating Geelong services for fast, expert, and council-ready results.
