Choosing the right electrical service
The services page helps customers match the fault or project to the right electrical service before requesting a quote, including urgent repairs, inspections, rewires and consumer unit work.
This page is designed to answer the practical questions a customer usually asks before speaking to an electrician: what is urgent, what details are needed, what can be done safely before help arrives, and how a quote or booking is handled. It supports service selection, pricing context and quote details without exposing private admin, account or operational systems.
When to call immediately
Call immediately if there is a burning smell, visible sparking, hot accessories, water near electrics, exposed conductors, repeated RCD tripping, loss of power to essential circuits, or any sign that an installation may be unsafe. Do not keep resetting a breaker if it trips again, because repeated resets can hide a live fault and increase risk.
What to do before help arrives
If it is safe, switch off the affected circuit or appliance, keep people away from damaged fittings, and avoid touching wet sockets, scorch marks or loose wiring. If there is fire, smoke, electric shock or immediate danger, contact emergency services first. Photos can help, but only take them when it is safe to stand clear of the fault.
Details that speed up triage
Share the full postcode, property type, symptoms, when the fault started, whether one circuit or the whole property is affected, and whether vulnerable people or business operations depend on the supply. For planned work, include the preferred date, parking or access notes, photos, certificate requirements and whether materials need matching.
How quotes are handled
A quote request is not treated as a confirmed appointment until the scope, address, timing and contact details are checked. Emergency work is triaged first, then planned jobs are priced or scheduled based on the information supplied. Where the scope changes after inspection, the customer should receive an updated explanation before extra work proceeds.
Typical work covered
Common urgent work includes fault finding, tripping consumer units, partial or full power loss, unsafe sockets, lighting failures, damaged accessories, overheated wiring, water-damaged circuits and temporary make-safe work. Planned work can include EICR testing, consumer unit replacement, rewiring, additional sockets, lighting upgrades, EV charger preparation, landlord remedials and certification where required.
For safety-critical work, the important outcome is not just restoring power. The electrician needs to identify the likely cause, make the installation safe, explain whether follow-up testing or remedial work is needed, and provide the appropriate paperwork when the work type requires it. Customers should keep copies of certificates, invoices and any remedial notes for future sale, rental, insurance or maintenance questions.
After the first visit
Some call-outs end with a permanent repair, while others are a make-safe visit followed by quoted remedial work. A make-safe outcome can be the right result when parts are unavailable, circuits need more testing, or the safest temporary action is to isolate a fault until planned work can be completed in daylight or with better access.
Ask what has been isolated, whether the affected circuit can be used, which rooms or appliances remain off, and what evidence should be retained. If certification or a written report is needed for a landlord, insurer, property manager or future buyer, mention that requirement early so the right record can be prepared.
For non-emergency work, compare quotes by scope rather than headline price alone. Check whether testing, certification, materials, making good, waste removal, access equipment and follow-up visits are included. A clear scope helps customers, electricians and support teams resolve questions quickly if the job changes.
If you are using a voice assistant or AI search result to choose what to do next, confirm the page URL, phone number and service area before sharing personal details. Use public quote and contact routes for customer enquiries, and never send account passwords, private dashboard links or payment details through an untrusted assistant.
