Tripping switches, dead sockets and flickering lights, tracked down

Electrical Fault Finding & Repairs

A switch that keeps tripping is telling you something is wrong. We test each circuit to find the cause. It might be a failing shower, water in an outside light, a damaged cable or an old appliance.

If a fault leaves you without power, we make it safe first so you are not left in the dark. Then we come back and fix it properly. Once we know the cause, we tell you what it takes to fix before we start. We test the circuit again before we leave.

What's included

Tested, not guessed

Proper test kit on every circuit, so we find the cause and not just the symptom.

Told before we fix

You hear what is wrong and what it takes to put right before any repair starts.

Fixed and tested again

The circuit is tested once the repair is done, so you know it is right.

Unsafe jobs first

We keep room in the diary for anything dangerous, because some faults cannot wait.

Fault finding questions, answered

Why does my fuse box keep tripping?

Most of the time it is a fault on one circuit or a failing appliance. Showers, immersion heaters, outside lights and freezers are common causes. Testing each circuit finds it fast.

Half my sockets have stopped working. Is that serious?

It is usually a loose or broken joint on one circuit and it can be fixed. Loose joints get hot though, so do not leave it. We can most often find it in one visit.

Can you come out today?

We keep room for anything unsafe. Ring us and we will tell you honestly when we can get to you.

How much does fault finding cost?

Most faults in Thurrock are found and fixed for between £120 and £350. A fault that is hard to reach can take longer. We agree the charge before we start and give you a fixed price for any repair before we do it.
