We find the fault, not just the symptom.
A tripping safety switch or a dead circuit almost always has one real cause. We track it down properly instead of guessing, so the same problem doesn't come back next week.
Faults we chase down every week
If any of these are happening at your place, give us a call. Some are an easy fix, some point to something that needs sorting before it gets worse.
- Safety switch keeps trippingPower drops out and won't stay on. Usually a faulty appliance or circuit, and we'll isolate exactly which one.
- Lights flickering or dimmingFlicker that comes and goes can point to a loose connection or an overloaded circuit worth catching early.
- Dead power points or circuitsA room or run of points with no power. We find the break and get it working again.
- Burning smell or hot switchesAny heat, smell or scorching is a call-now job. Stop using the circuit and phone us.
- Buzzing or cracklingNoise from a switch, point or the board usually means a connection that needs attention.
- Intermittent faultsThe tricky ones that come and go. This is where methodical testing pays off over guesswork.
Methodical, not a guessing game
We test the circuits properly to narrow the fault to its actual source, then explain what we've found in plain English before we fix anything. You'll know what caused it, what it takes to put right, and the price, before we get into it.
Where a fault points to something bigger, like a tired board or old wiring, we'll tell you straight rather than patch over it.
Something not right at 11pm? We pick up.
Electrical problems don't wait for business hours, and neither do we. If it's urgent, or it smells or feels wrong, call straight away and we'll get to you.
Fault finding and maintenance
When my power went out on Christmas Eve, they responded quickly and handled everything in a professional and efficient manner. The work was clearly explained to me in a logical, easy-to-understand way.
