HOW I CAN HELP
Asbestos Switchboard Replacement
01
Inspection and quote
I check the switchboard, meter panel and wiring and give you a written quote before any work starts. Boards installed before the late 1980s are treated as containing asbestos unless tested.
02
Safe removal of the old board
Trained in asbestos switchboard work. The old board is wet down, removed carefully with minimal cutting or drilling, and the area is cleaned.
03
Sealed and disposed of properly
The old board is double-wrapped, labelled and taken to a facility licensed to accept asbestos. Nothing is left in your bin or at your home.
04
New switchboard and safety switches
A new enclosure with modern circuit breakers and RCD safety switches, sized for today’s loads with room for future circuits.
05
Power off and on arranged for you
Replacing the board usually needs the network supply disconnected. I arrange the disconnection and reconnection so you don’t have to.
06
Testing, labels and certificate
All circuits are tested and clearly labelled, and you receive the required compliance certificate for the work.

YOUR QUESTIONS
Before you book
How do I know if my switchboard has asbestos?
You can’t tell by looking. Many boards installed before the late 1980s have asbestos in the backing panel, so I treat them as asbestos unless a test shows otherwise.
Is it safe to leave an asbestos switchboard alone?
An undisturbed board is low risk, but drilling, cutting or damage can release fibres. If the board is old, cracked or needs new circuits, replacing it is the safest option.
How long does the replacement take?
Most homes are done in one day, including the power outage. I’ll confirm the timing and outage when we book the job.
