Older switchboards in Ashby sometimes contain asbestos backing panels, particularly in boards installed before the late 1980s. It is not a reason to panic, but it does need handling properly.
What that means for a Ashby switchboard upgrade:
Left alone and undisturbed, an asbestos panel is generally not a hazard. The risk comes from drilling, cutting or breaking it, which is exactly what happens when someone works on the board without knowing what is behind it.
We check for it as a matter of course and tell you what we find before proceeding.

Ashby is one of the suburbs making up Perth’s northern suburbs, located roughly 25 km north of the Perth CBD. The landscape here is the flat Swan Coastal Plain, with the usual mix of parks, reserves and established residential streets, and the local mix of building eras means switchboard condition varies enormously from one property to the next.
The switchboard issues we come across most often around Ashby include:
We look at the supply side as well as the board itself. There is little point fitting a modern board at a Ashby property if the consumer mains feeding it cannot carry the load you are planning to add, and that is a check worth doing before the work rather than during it.
If you are just outside Ashby itself, we also look after switchboard installation in Two Rocks, Tapping, Wanneroo, Merriwa and Banksia Grove, with the same team, the same pricing and the same standard of work.
