Electrical Fault Finding
Electrical faults are not always obvious. A circuit may trip only when a particular appliance runs, or a socket may work intermittently. We investigate the cause so that the repair addresses the problem rather than simply replacing parts without a diagnosis.
Tell us how the fault behaves
Note when the issue began, what was in use at the time and which parts of the property are affected. Recent leaks, building work or changes to an appliance can be useful clues. You do not need to remove covers or carry out tests before contacting us.
A methodical investigation
The investigation is guided by the symptoms and the installation. It can include inspecting accessible accessories and connections, testing relevant circuits and checking whether connected equipment is involved. Some faults are intermittent, so information about when they occur can help narrow the search.
From diagnosis to repair
Once the issue is identified, we explain the findings and the proposed repair. Damaged wiring, a loose connection and a faulty appliance require different responses. If access to concealed wiring or replacement parts is needed, we agree the next step with you.
Your questions answered
Can you investigate a fault that comes and goes?
Yes. Record when it happens and what is switched on. An intermittent fault may require further investigation if it is not present during the visit.
Is fault finding available urgently?
For loss of power, repeated tripping or a suspected unsafe fault, call our emergency number to discuss attendance.
