What's Going Wrong
Electrical Faults We Fix Most in Cambridge
A quick reference for what our electricians usually find behind the calls we get most across the city.
| What's happening | What it usually means |
|---|---|
| Consumer unit tripping in a college-owned rental | Checked against that property's own compliance history, not treated as a blank slate. |
| Sockets dead in one room only | Usually a separate circuit added at a different time to the rest of the property. |
| Burning smell near a socket or panel | Treated as a same-day priority - a loose connection or overload that needs isolating fast. |
| Lights flickering across the property | Often a loose connection at the consumer unit, or wiring reaching the end of its working life. |
| Total loss of power | Sometimes a supply issue outside the property, sometimes a tripped main switch - we check both. |

FAQs
Emergency electrician questions, Cambridge
How fast can an electrician reach me in Cambridge?
We send whoever's already nearest rather than the next name on a list, so most Cambridge call-outs land within our 30-60 minute average, from the city centre out to the surrounding villages.
Do you work with college-owned housing as well as private homes?
Yes. Cambridge colleges directly own and manage huge portfolios of rented housing for students and staff, each with its own compliance inspection schedule, and our electricians are used to working within that paperwork on top of fixing the fault itself.
Can you fix the fault the same visit, or do you just make it safe?
Most faults are diagnosed and fixed in one visit. If parts are needed that we don't carry, we'll make everything safe first and explain exactly what happens next.
Which parts of Cambridge do you cover?
The whole city - Cherry Hinton, Chesterton, Trumpington, Newnham, Castle, Girton and everywhere in between, plus the rest of the East of England.
