About North Albury
Orchards and vineyards covered much of it in the first half of last century, and a swamp sat where James Fallon High School stands now. Housing took over after the Second World War, and Waugh Road was pushed through to the Five Ways intersection at Union Road, the line between North Albury and Lavington.
The racecourse here holds the city's best electrical story. In 1934 a lost KLM airliner, the Uiver, landed there at night after the town's public lighting flashed A-L-B-U-R-Y in Morse code, with residents' car headlights lighting the track. At the 2021 Census the suburb had 2,524 occupied homes, and 41% were rented.

Questions
North Albury questions
Where are the boundaries of North Albury?
Union Street to the north, Dallinger Road and Fallon Street to the east, Bungambrawatha Creek and Ryan Road to the south, and Burrows Road to the west.
Should the switchboard be checked before I add an EV charger?
Yes, and Tomo does that before he quotes. If the board is old it may need upgrading first, and you'll know that before any work starts.
What should I do if the power goes out?
Look out the window first. If the streetlights and the neighbours are out, ring Essential Energy on 13 20 80. If it's only your place, ring Tomo, and switch off heaters and the stove so nothing comes on by itself.
Can I text a photo of the problem?
Yes. Send it to 0491 578 888 and you'll get a reply within a minute.
Do you guarantee the work?
Yes, five years on workmanship.
