- Methodical fault finding, not trial and error
- Clear explanation of what went wrong
- Most common faults fixed on the first visit
- Free advice before any work starts
Electrical faults are stressful, especially when you don’t know what’s causing them. I use proper test equipment to trace the problem to its source, explain what I’ve found and fix it safely, so it doesn’t come back next week.
Common problems I fix
- RCD or trip switch that keeps tripping
- Sockets, lights or whole circuits with no power
- Flickering or buzzing lights
- Scorched, cracked or loose sockets and switches
- Faulty outdoor lights and garden power
- Electric showers, cookers and immersion heaters not working
Is it safe to wait?
If you notice a burning smell, scorch marks, sparking or a socket that feels hot, switch off at the consumer unit if it’s safe to do so and call straight away. For anything else, I’ll give you honest advice on how urgent it really is.
If your whole street has lost power, the fault is likely with the network. Call 105 to report a power cut to your local network operator.
