What happens on the day
The fitting or dimmer that was named is replaced and the switch is tested. On the leafy roads a 1920s or 1930s board may be at the age for replacement, and this visit does not become that replacement. On the Webb Estate the switch is on one of the boards, and where the supply is split we note which board that light leaves. A light in a flat above the Foxley Lane parades stays in the flat. We do not change a fitting that was only pointed at once we had arrived, unless it is written on first.
- Change the fitting namedThe light or dimmer on the note is the one replaced. A matching swap is tested at the switch. Anything else in the room stays up.
- Leave the ageing boardA house on the leafy roads can be ready for a new board and still only get the dimmer today. The board change is written as a later job if it is wanted.
- Note which Webb Estate boardWhere the supply is split, the light's circuit is traced to the board it leaves. The other board is not opened for a single fitting.

Is a dimmer on the leafy roads a new board?
No. Houses there from the 1920s and 1930s may be ready for a new board. The dimmer is only the dimmer, and the board stays until it is booked.
Do you open both boards on the Webb Estate for one light?
We trace the light to the board it leaves. The other board, where the supply is split, is not part of a single fitting change.
Can the shop light be changed with the flat?
Not on the flat's booking. A flat above the Foxley Lane parades and the shop below are labelled apart.
What if the new fitting was not on the note?
It is written on before it is connected. Otherwise the original fitting is left in place on the wall.
Will Riddlesdown lights add the missing sockets?
No. A Laing house that wants more outlets needs those outlets booked. This visit changes the fitting named.
