Find the fault, fix it, and prove it is safe.
A circuit that keeps tripping or a socket that has gone dead is rarely random. We use systematic testing to isolate the cause rather than guessing and swapping parts, then carry out the repair and confirm the circuit is safe with a test result.
The faults we track down.
Intermittent faults are the ones that cost you money when handled by trial and error. Our engineers work methodically, dividing the installation down until the cause is found.
- Tripping RCDs and breakers. Earth leakage, borrowed neutrals and overloaded circuits located and corrected.
- Dead sockets and circuits. Broken rings, loose terminations and damaged cable traced to source.
- Intermittent faults. The flickering, occasional-trip problems that need methodical division to catch.
- Damage and overheating. Scorched accessories, heat damage and rodent or water damage assessed and repaired.
Method, not guesswork.
Assess
We gather the symptoms and history, then inspect the consumer unit and affected circuits.
Test
Systematic dead and live testing divides the installation down to isolate the fault.
Repair
The cause is corrected — a termination, an accessory or a section of cable — with your approval on cost.
Verify
We re-test to confirm the circuit is safe and issue a Minor Works Certificate where appropriate.
Good to know before you book.

Ask a questionWhy does my RCD keep tripping?
Usually accumulated earth leakage across several circuits, a single faulty appliance or a damaged cable. We test each circuit in turn to identify which is at fault rather than guessing.
Can you find a fault the last electrician could not?
Often, yes. Intermittent faults need methodical division of the installation and proper test instruments, which is exactly how we approach them.
How quickly can you attend?
We offer same-day slots for faults across our coverage area, and a 24/7 line for anything unsafe.
Do you certify the repair?
Yes. Once the fault is fixed we re-test the circuit and issue a Minor Works Certificate confirming it is safe.
