What we do in Lawnton
Houses built in Lawnton after the war usually started with a small switchboard and a handful of circuits. Built-in lower levels need their own lighting, power points and interconnected smoke alarms. A board upgrade with safety switches on every circuit usually comes before any bigger electrical change.
Lawnton also has its share of brick-and-tile homes from the 70s and 80s. In Lawnton’s brick lowsets, wiring runs through the roof space and down the cavity walls, with original boards still in many houses. Roof spaces in these homes are usually accessible, which makes LED downlight upgrades and new ceiling fans straightforward.
