• Tell the electrician if the problem appears after rain, appliance use, or resetting the consumer unit.
• Use Call for urgent faults and Get Quote if you need pricing first.

Call urgently for

• Burning smells, sparks, smoke, or visible damage.
• Repeated tripping, shocks, or exposed wiring.
• Any fault that leaves part of the property unsafe to use.
