Electrical Fault Finding & Repairs

An RCD that won't reset. A breaker that trips every time the kettle goes on. Half the upstairs sockets stopped working overnight. Faults are where electricians earn their money — and where customers get fleeced. We charge a fixed diagnosis fee, tell you exactly what's wrong, and quote a fixed price for the repair before any work starts.

How it works

  1. 1

    Diagnose first

    We don't guess. We isolate the faulty circuit and use proper test equipment to find the actual cause.

  2. 2

    Show you the fault

    Where possible we'll show you the damaged cable, knackered socket or failed appliance so you can see for yourself what was wrong.

  3. 3

    Quote the repair

    Fixed price for the actual fix before we start.

  4. 4

    Repair and test

    We carry out the repair, retest the circuit, and reset the RCD.

Pricing

Fixed diagnosis fee for the first hour, which covers most faults. Repair cost is quoted afterwards as a fixed price. If we can fix it during the diagnosis hour, the repair is free.

Frequently asked questions

Why does my RCD keep tripping? +
Most common causes: a faulty appliance (often a kettle, fridge or extension lead), water ingress in an outdoor socket or shed, damaged cable nipped by floorboards, or a failing socket. Methodical testing finds it in 90 minutes or less.
What if you can't find the fault? +
Very rare. If it genuinely can't be found in the diagnosis hour — usually because it's intermittent and not present when we visit — we agree a follow-up plan rather than just billing you for nothing.
Will I need a full rewire? +
Almost never. Faults are usually localised to one socket, one circuit, or one appliance. A full rewire is recommended only when multiple circuits are showing age-related failure on insulation testing.
