Houses, townhouses and an industrial corner around the city aerodrome, served by one licensed Toowoomba Master Electrician.
Wilsonton is one of Toowoomba's larger suburbs, built around the city aerodrome, with an industrial area in its south-western corner and a sizeable share of townhouses. Care Technical Services has carried out electrical work across Toowoomba since 1979 and covers the full spread of Wilsonton jobs, from a townhouse smoke alarm to a three-phase breakdown.
Wilsonton
Wilsonton's electrical work splits fairly evenly between homes and businesses. On the residential side it is switchboards, power points, smoke alarms and hot water faults; on the industrial side it is motors, pumps, distribution boards and test and tag. Care Technical Services provides installation, repairs and preventive maintenance across residential, commercial and industrial sites, with 24/7 emergency call-outs when something fails. We quote before work and leave each job tested and explained.
Wilsonton has a larger share of townhouses than the Toowoomba average. At the 2021 Census, 15.1% of its 2,603 occupied private dwellings were semi-detached homes, townhouses or terraces, against 13.0% across the Toowoomba local government area, and 38.8% of dwellings were rented. A suburb with that mix, plus an industrial corner, needs an electrician who is equally at home in both.
Three-phase motors and outlets, pumps, distribution switchboards, control systems, variable speed drives, metering and test and tag.

Useful when buying one of the suburb's townhouses, where the electrical history is not always documented.
Ceiling fans, sensor lights, security lights and emergency lighting, installed and repaired.
Emergency and exit lighting also applies to commercial premises in the industrial area.
Fault finding and repairs for electric and solar hot water systems, plus routine maintenance and one-off services.
Age is the most common cause of hot water failure, and many Wilsonton systems have been in place for years.
Wilsonton is 5.9 kilometres by road north-west of the Toowoomba central business district. Toowoomba City Aerodrome sits at the centre of the suburb, accessed via Mutze Street, and an industrial area occupies the south-western corner, bounded by Taylor Street and Boundary Street.
The 2021 Census counted 5,891 residents and 2,603 occupied private dwellings: 77.3% separate houses, 15.1% semi-detached homes and townhouses and 7.5% flats or apartments. Attached homes often share walls and roof space, so we take care to confirm which circuits and fittings belong to which dwelling before isolating anything.
Businesses in the industrial area depend on equipment that cannot sit idle. Three-phase motors, pumps, distribution switchboards and variable speed drives are where faults cost the most, and preventive maintenance is usually cheaper than the breakdown it prevents.

Wilsonton was officially named in 1981 and is believed to honour James T. Wilson, an 1870s businessman and supporter of the Toowoomba Agricultural Society. Its boundaries changed in 2006, when Wilsonton Heights was gazetted as a separate suburb. Wilsonton State School has operated since 5 February 1894, and the suburb is also home to Sacred Heart Primary School, opened in 1968, and Fairview Heights State School, opened in 1995. The population was 5,891 at the 2021 Census, with a median age of 42.
