Fault finding and repairs
Something keeps tripping, a socket is dead, or the power is off in a part of the house. I find the cause and put it right.
What I do
What's covered
- Tripping
- A switch in your consumer unit (fuse box) that keeps going off is telling you something. I test the circuits to find which one, and why.
- Dead sockets and lights
- Traced back to the fault, and repaired.
- Repairs and remedial work
- Damaged fittings replaced, and faults found on a safety check (EICR) put right.
- Urgent faults
- While I don't operate a 24-hour call-out service, I understand emergencies happen. On select occasions I can take urgent out-of-hours requests, which carry a premium call-out rate.

Questions
Questions people ask
- Why does my power keep tripping?
- Usually one appliance or one circuit has a fault: water in an outside light or socket, an appliance on its way out, or a damaged cable. Try this. Unplug everything, reset the switch, then plug things back in one at a time. If it trips when one goes back in, that's likely the cause. If it trips with nothing plugged in, the fault is in the wiring and needs testing.
- I can smell burning. What should I do?
- If it's safe to reach, turn the power off at the main switch on your consumer unit (fuse box). Don't use that socket or switch again, and ring me. If there is smoke or fire, call 999 first.
- Can you fix an intermittent fault?
- They're the hardest to pin down, but testing each circuit narrows it down. Tell me if anything else happened when it tripped. Take note of which switch tripped and what was switched on at the time. It helps more than you'd think.
