💡 Local Tip for Geelong Homeowners

Frequently Asked Questions — NatHERS Assessors in Geelong

How do I find a NatHERS assessor in Geelong?

Search above to find an accredited NatHERS assessor covering Geelong, the Bellarine Peninsula and the Surf Coast. Most Geelong assessors also service Torquay, Ocean Grove, Barwon Heads and Armstrong Creek. We recommend contacting two or three to compare price and turnaround.

How much does a NatHERS assessment cost in Geelong?

A NatHERS certificate in Geelong typically costs $300–$550 for existing homes and $250–$450 for new builds from plans. Coastal properties in Torquay, Barwon Heads and Ocean Grove sometimes attract a small travel surcharge from Melbourne-based assessors — booking a local Geelong assessor usually avoids this.

Do I need a NatHERS certificate for a new build in Geelong?

Yes. Under the Victorian building regulations and NCC 2022, all new Class 1 homes in Geelong (including Armstrong Creek, Charlemont and Mount Duneed) must achieve a minimum 7-star NatHERS rating plus meet the Whole-of-Home energy budget. Your builder should engage an assessor at the design stage.

What happens to my Victorian Scorecard rating after 23 June 2026?

The Victorian Residential Efficiency Scorecard program closes on 23 June 2026. Existing Scorecard certificates remain valid for their stated lifespan, but new assessments for Geelong homes will need to use the NatHERS existing-homes pathway. If you were planning a Scorecard rebate application, book before the deadline or switch to NatHERS.

Which Geelong suburbs deliver the biggest star-rating gains from upgrades?

Older weatherboard homes in Newtown, East Geelong and Belmont typically gain the most from ceiling insulation (R5.0+) and draught sealing. Coastal homes in Ocean Grove and Torquay benefit strongly from double-glazing and window shading to manage summer heat and coastal wind exposure.
