Electrical work in Essendon
Essendon is Edwardian and interwar houses on generous blocks, with substantial Victorian stock closer to Mount Alexander Road. Litmec specialises in project electrical work — switchboard and supply upgrades, three-phase conversions, full and partial rewiring, renovation and extension rough-ins, and commercial and industrial fitout. Smaller jobs are taken on as part of a larger scope or for established clients.
The work we are called for most in Essendon is driven by the size of the houses. Large Edwardian homes take large ducted systems, and a supply sized in 1915 does not carry one.
What we find in Essendon
Across Essendon the pattern is consistent: original ceramic fuse boards still turn up in the unrenovated houses, and the 1970s and 1980s renovation wave left a lot of asbestos backing panels behind.
The Essendon complication
Big blocks mean long runs from the point of attachment to the board, which is usually the cost driver on an Essendon mains upgrade.
