Common Electrical Questions
My electrics keep tripping — is that dangerous?
Repeated tripping usually means the system is protecting you from a fault. It could be an overloaded circuit, a faulty appliance, or a more serious wiring issue. If it keeps happening, it’s worth having it checked properly to prevent further risk.
Do I need to upgrade my fuse board?
If your consumer unit is older and doesn’t have RCD protection, or if it still uses rewireable fuses, an upgrade is often recommended for safety and compliance. We’ll always assess first before advising — not every property automatically needs a full replacement.
How quickly can you attend?
We aim to respond promptly and prioritise urgent safety issues. If there’s a loss of power, burning smell, or exposed wiring, let us know immediately so we can treat it as urgent.
Will there be mess or disruption?
We work cleanly and respectfully in occupied homes. Dust sheets are used where required, and we tidy up properly before leaving.
Do you provide certificates?
Yes. Where applicable, we issue the correct certification for the work carried out — whether that’s an Electrical Installation Certificate, Minor Works Certificate, or EICR.
How much will it cost?
Costs depend on the scope of work, property size, and condition of the installation. We provide clear, transparent pricing before starting any work — no hidden extras.
Do you carry out landlord electrical work?
Yes. We regularly carry out EICRs, remedial works, and certification for rental properties to ensure legal compliance.
