<p>Minor electrical checks focus on visible safety hazards, loose connections, and specific fault finding within domestic circuits. They are ideal for addressing known issues or preparing for a sale. Full industrial or EICR testing involves comprehensive circuit analysis, insulation resistance testing, and certification of the entire system, which is typically required for landlords or major renovations.</p>
<p>Signs of dangerous sockets include visible cracking, discolouration (brown marks), buzzing sounds, warmth to the touch, or flickering lights when a plug is inserted. If you notice any of these, stop using the socket and contact us immediately for a safe replacement.</p>
<p>Yes. Our vans are stocked with high-quality, compliant standard sockets, switches, and fuse components for immediate repairs. If you have a specific style or designer switch in mind, we recommend purchasing it beforehand, but we can also advise on the best options for your home.</p>
<p>Typically, installing a new light fixture takes 1–2 hours depending on the complexity of the wiring and ceiling type. Adding a new socket usually takes a similar amount of time, plus additional time for making good the wall if chasing is required. We’ll provide a clear time estimate before we start.</p>
<p>First, unplug all appliances on the affected circuit to rule out a faulty device. Reset the fuse; if it holds, plug items back in one by one to find the culprit. If the fuse trips again with nothing plugged in, it indicates a wiring fault. Do not force the fuse back on — call us for professional fault finding.</p>
