Charged by the hour until the fault is found; the repair is priced before we start it.

Typical faults

  • The RCD trips when it rains, or at random
  • One circuit is dead and won't reset
  • Lights flicker, or a socket is warm to the touch

What's included

  • Testing circuit by circuit until the fault is found
  • A clear explanation of what caused it
  • A price for the repair before we do it

How it goes

  1. Find

    Insulation and continuity testing until the fault is isolated.

  2. Explain

    What it is, why it happened and what it costs to fix.

  3. Fix

    Usually on the same visit, once you've agreed the price.
