The next hour

What happens when you call

One call, answered by an electrician. Here is exactly what happens after you dial, start to finish.

  1. MINUTE 0

    An electrician answers, not a call centre

    The phone goes to a working electrician, day or night. You are talking to someone who can read the fault, not someone taking a message.

  2. MINUTE 2

    We ask what is happening and who is at risk

    What you can smell, what has gone off, whether anything is hot, wet or sparking. If anyone is in danger we tell you what to switch off before we go any further.

  3. MINUTE 5

    You get the fee, the rate and an honest ETA

    The callout fee and the hourly rate, said out loud on the phone. Then a real arrival time based on where our nearest electrician is, not a best case.

  4. WITHIN THE HOUR

    We arrive and make it safe first

    Nothing else starts until the danger is gone: we isolate the circuit, test the board and get your home safe. Repairs come after that, never before.

  5. BEFORE WE LEAVE

    We explain what we found and what it costs

    You hear what failed, what we did tonight and what is left to put right in full. The price for that work is agreed with you before anyone books it in.

Our emergency electrician was excellent. He responded quickly, was very polite and rapidly made safe a ceiling light that had blown and almost caught fire from a bathroom leak. He even came back and fitted a new light as part of the original cost.

I called at 1am and they turned up an hour later. I have two kids and could not be without lights. Great service, upfront with the pricing, very professional and courteous. Could not recommend them any higher.

Outstanding, faultless service. Prompt, efficient, calm, knows his stuff and cleans up after himself, which can be a rarity nowadays. Nothing is too much trouble. Cannot recommend highly enough.
FAULT FINDING
Job log

Called us at 2am

Smoke from the consumer unit — on site in 10 minutes
We had smoke coming out of our consumer unit and called in a panic. He was with us within 10min and fixed the issue straight away and made it safe. All costs were super clear from the beginning and no nasty surprises. We had him back since to complete more work and we feel our electricity setup has never been safer and reliable since.
Sebastian
Tripping fault — every socket tested
Very quick to respond to an emergency request, and talked me through some initial fixes to try for myself before he could get there. He checked every single socket to identify our tripping issue, and was happy to explain what he was doing throughout the process.
Reuben
Repeat customer — came back for more work
He’s always prompt, polite and efficient. It is so valuable to have a trusted professional who is knowledgeable and does a great job while also being such a delightful guest to have in your home.
