Electrical repairs behind old Morpeth walls

Morpeth houses have had work done to them for a very long time. The faults we get called to follow from that.

LED lighting in a bright kitchen

Downlights that flicker no matter what

One Morpeth property had MR16 downlights on hardwired drivers, flickering every time a globe was changed. We fitted 82 LED downlights on plug bases, so the next change is a plug, not an electrician in the ceiling.

The bathroom unit had melted around the clip

The three in one heat lamp in a Morpeth bathroom had a broken and melted face plate clip. We isolated the circuit, replaced the unit, swapped a hallway batten for a downlight and fitted a new switch plate with a fan controller.

An oven that will not hold its heat

Both elements and the thermostat had gone in one Morpeth oven, and the cooktop regulators with them. On an appliance that old we say replace rather than chase parts, then fit and test the new one.

Garages, sheds and back lanes

Light on both sides of the lane

At one Morpeth property we added floodlights facing up and down on both garages, put one on a post, tracked down wiring left by others and connected it, then added a safety switch (RCBO) to the power circuit.

Power where the work happens

Same job, a double power point on the centre post for a hoist. Tell us what the shed is actually used for and the circuit gets planned for that, not for a light and a battery charger.

Morpeth questions

Why do my downlights flicker after I change the globes?

Old MR16 downlights with hardwired drivers often do. At one Morpeth property we replaced the lot with LED downlights on plug bases, which stopped the flicker and makes the next change a simple swap.

Is it worth repairing an old oven?

Not always. In one Morpeth kitchen both elements, the thermostat and the cooktop regulators had failed, so we said replace rather than chase parts that would fail again.

Can you put floodlights on a garage off the back lane?

Yes. At one Morpeth garage we fitted floodlights facing up and down, one on a post, moved the switching to the garage door and added a safety switch (RCBO) to the power circuit.

Do you work on heritage homes in Morpeth?

Yes. We work around original ceilings and cornices, test the circuit first and tell you what is behind the wall before anything gets cut.
