    Quick checks you can do safely

    🔍 Before you call

    1. Unplug everything on the circuit that tripped, then try resetting the breaker or RCD.
    2. If it stays on, plug appliances back in one at a time. If it trips again, the last appliance is probably the culprit.
    3. If it trips with nothing plugged in, the fault is likely in the wiring – leave it off and call us.
    4. Never keep resetting a breaker that trips straight away, and don't touch anything hot, damaged or wet.

    How we find faults

    Many faults are intermittent – they come and go with damp weather, a particular appliance or the time of day. We use proper test equipment to check each circuit’s insulation, earthing and protection, so we find the real cause instead of resetting things and hoping.

    Once it’s fixed, everything is re-tested. If we find something bigger – a board that needs replacing, for example – we explain why and agree a fixed price before doing any more work.

    FAQs

    Electrical Repair FAQs

    Why does my RCD keep tripping?

    Common causes are a faulty appliance, moisture getting into outdoor sockets or lights, or damaged cable. Try the quick checks above – if it still trips, call us.

    How much does an electrical repair cost?

    It depends on the fault. We agree the price with you before any repair work goes ahead, so there are no surprises.

    Can you come out today?

    For urgent faults, call 07534 250791 – we answer 24/7.

    Is a flickering light dangerous?

    Often it's just a failing bulb or an incompatible dimmer, but flickering across several lights can point to a loose connection, which should be checked.

    Will I get a certificate?

    Where the work requires one, you'll receive the appropriate certificate – for example, a Minor Electrical Installation Works Certificate.
