Fontwell housing
Twentieth century houses and bungalows
Much of Fontwell's housing dates from the last century, a mix of detached houses and bungalows with some older cottages among them. Homes built in the middle decades often keep their original circuit layout, with a cooker circuit, an immersion heater and a couple of ring mains, and the board may have been swapped once since without gaining the protection a modern installation expects.
Bungalows bring their own details. The loft usually carries the lighting cables, sometimes buried under insulation, and the board often lives in a hall cupboard. We check accessible loft cables for heat damage while testing, and fit the new unit neatly in the same spot where practical.
- Original ring mains tested
- Loft cables checked in bungalows

Booking around race meetings
Fontwell Park stages race meetings through the year, and on those days the roads around the A27 and A29 roundabouts get noticeably busier. It sounds minor, but when your power is going to be off for several hours, an installer who arrives on time matters. We keep the racing calendar in mind when we book a Fontwell visit.
If you live close to the course and a race day would make parking or access awkward, just tell us and we will pick another date. With most boards needing between four and six hours, starting early usually has the power back on well ahead of the evening.
- Race days kept in mind
- Early starts on request
- Parking agreed in advance
- Most boards done in 4 to 6 hours

Fontwell questions
Asked in Fontwell
Still not sure?
Call for a straight answer from an installer, not a call centre.
Call 0333 360 8691Often, yes. Many boards from that era have a single RCD covering only the sockets, or one RCD for the whole house, so a single fault can cut everything. They also lack surge protection and are usually plastic. All three are put right by a new board, with dual RCD protection from £425 or RCBOs from £625, and testing every circuit comes with the work.
The price follows the board, not the floor plan. A dual RCD board with 6 ways from £425 suits many bungalows. Extras such as moving the board or adding an EICR for £99 are listed separately, so you can see exactly what you are paying for.
Yes. The old board, fuses and any redundant cable we remove go with us and are disposed of properly. Some very old fuse boxes have flash pads or backing boards that may contain asbestos. If we spot that on your photos or on arrival, we tell you before any work begins and agree the safe way to deal with it.
