Preventative Maintenance Cornwall

Stop Problems Before They Stop Your Business

Reactive maintenance—fixing things when they break—is expensive and stressful. Our Planned Preventative Maintenance (PPM) strategies are designed to catch potential issues early, ensuring your facility runs smoothly, safely, and efficiently year-round.

The Value of Proactive Care

Many businesses only call an electrician when the lights go out. By then, the damage is done. A tailored maintenance agreement with Lawson shifts your approach from "repair" to "reliability."

We help you achieve:

  • Reduced Downtime: Scheduled care prevents the surprise failures that stop production.

  • Cost Certainty: Budget for maintenance monthly rather than facing shock repair bills.

  • Extended Asset Life: Well-maintained equipment lasts longer and performs better.

  • Continuous Compliance: Never miss a safety inspection or legal deadline again.

Our Maintenance Services

We build a bespoke schedule based on your specific equipment and operational needs.

Scheduled PPM Visits

We create custom maintenance schedules to inspect critical systems, reducing the risk of unexpected failures and costly downtime.

Thermal Imaging Surveys

Using thermal cameras, we detect overheating components early, preventing electrical fires and identifying loose connections fast.

Compliance Checks

We ensure you stay legal with routine checks on emergency lighting and safety devices, keeping your insurance valid and staff safe.

What We Inspect

Our maintenance technicians follow a rigorous checklist tailored to your facility:

  • Distribution Boards: Checking for loose connections, corrosion, and signs of arcing.

  • Switchgear & Isolators: Ensuring mechanical operation and electrical integrity.

  • Motor Control Centers (MCC): Cleaning and testing starters, soft starts, and VSDs.

  • Emergency Systems: Function testing of backup lighting and fire alarm integration.

Industrial Services

Industrial Electrical Installations

Whether you are commissioning a new production line or upgrading an ageing facility, you need power you can rely on.

Our engineers are experienced in designing and installing high-load systems that cope with the rigorous demands of modern industry.

Industrial Inspection & Testing

Industrial sites are subject to the strictest safety regulations in the UK, including the Electricity at Work Regulations 1989. We provide forensic-level testing services to ensure your facility remains compliant, insurable, and safe for your workforce.

Our reporting is detailed, jargon-free, and highlights urgent issues before they become critical failures.

Preventative Maintenance & Testing

The most expensive repair is the one that stops production. Our preventative maintenance schedules are designed to catch faults before they cause downtime.

We work around your shift patterns to ensure your business stays compliant and operational.

Hazardous Area (CompEx) & ATEX

Working in explosive atmospheres requires more than a standard electrician; it requires specialist certification and a "safety-first" mindset.

As one of the few contractors in the South West with CompEx accreditation, we are qualified to work in high-risk environments where gas, vapour, or dust pose a threat.
