WELCOME TO
Emergency electrical work in Amberley, West Sussex, carried out by Part P registered electricians and tested to BS 7671, at any hour of the day or night.
We take emergency calls in Amberley at any hour. That usually means lighting circuits with no protective conductor at the fittings, a circuit gone dead, or something that smells or looks wrong and needs making safe quickly.
The work starts the same way every time: a visual inspection, then electrical fault finding with proper test instruments to establish which circuit is at fault and why. From there we can usually repair on the spot, whether that is socket repairs, lighting faults or work at the board.
Every job leaves with the circuit tested and the result recorded, and certification is issued to suit the work carried out.
We will fault find and resolve the issue if it can be resolved on the spot. With 25 years experience in fault finding we believe there isn't an issue which we can't solve. Some issues may need a revisit due to the deterioration of the cabling, and where that happens we will always explain your options clearly before any further work begins.

Read moreTripping circuits, dead sockets and faults that come and go are traced with proper test equipment rather than guesswork. We isolate the cause, explain what we have found and put it right.
Read moreLost power across the whole property, or just part of it? We check whether the fault sits in your installation or the incoming supply, make everything safe and get your lights and sockets back on.
Read moreAll electrical installations deteriorate with age and use. They should be inspected and tested at regular intervals to check whether they are in a satisfactory condition for continued use — commonly known as periodic inspection and testing.
Read moreWe are proud to be Part P registered. Our electrical work is tested to BS7671 regulations and complies with the latest British Standards and Building Regulations.

FAQ'S
All of our services are backed by our 100% satisfaction guarantee and delivered by our qualified electricians.
Usually. Around 85% of emergency callouts are resolved on the spot because our vans carry the parts for the faults we see most often around Amberley. Where a part must be ordered we make the installation safe and tell you exactly what happens next.
A board that trips is doing its job. It is usually a faulty appliance, water where it should not be, or a damaged cable. Testing identifies the circuit, and where an old board puts everything on one RCD, moving to RCBOs means only the faulty circuit goes off next time. See RCD tripping.
We make it safe, explain what we have found and give you the options in writing. That might be a partial rewire of one circuit rather than the whole property, or consumer unit replacement where the board is the weak point.
Switch that circuit off at the board, stop using it and call us. Heat and smell mean a connection is failing, which is the kind of job covered under burning smells and dangerous electrics, and we treat it as an emergency.
We work on the fixed installation rather than appliances, but part of the job is proving which of the two has failed, so you are not buying a new cooker to fix a circuit fault.
Listed fabric that limits where new cable can reasonably be run is the single biggest factor in the emergency work we do around Amberley, and it shows up as lighting circuits with no protective conductor at the fittings more often than anything else.
The other half is age. Converted barns and outbuildings on long submains, farmhouses off the mains gas network and thatched and timber-framed cottages sit side by side here, and the wiring in each behaves differently under load.
We test first, explain what we find, then repair. Most jobs are finished on the first visit.
…and if we can resolve and fix or (identify the issue if the circuit needs rewiring). The cost ends there.
We have structured our pricing in 4 easy categories, so the customer and ourselves understand the costs involved.

AMBERLEY
Start with the buildings. Amberley is a flint and thatch village where the Downs meet the Arun, and each phase of building brought its own wiring standards. Listed fabric that limits where new cable can reasonably be run is the factor that shapes most of the emergency work we are called out for.
The housing runs to converted barns and outbuildings on long submains, farmhouses off the mains gas network and thatched and timber-framed cottages, and each was wired to the standards of its day. Additions made since, from extensions to garden supplies, are often where the weak point turns out to be.
Empty periods do their own damage. Property that stands unused, whether between lets or over a winter, tends to hide small faults until everything is switched on at once.
What that produces, in practice, is lighting circuits with no protective conductor at the fittings. It is rarely mysterious once the circuits are tested, and it is usually repairable on the first visit.
Landlords have a further duty: in England a rented home needs an EICR at least every five years and before a new tenancy. All work is tested to BS 7671.
For anything that is not an emergency, we book planned work around you, including inspections, board changes and remedial work following a report.
We also cover Storrington, Pulborough and Arundel.
