Emergency Electrician
Round-the-clock call-outs for power cuts, faults and anything that can't wait until morning.
A consumer unit that won't reset in a seafront conversion flat or a dead ring circuit up towards Hanover needs the same thing: an electrician already working nearby, not one booked in from outside the city. That's who takes your call for an emergency electrician in Brighton.
No forms, no call centre reading your postcode off a screen - just a straight line from the problem to someone who can actually fix it.
Tell us what's happened - a tripped board, a dead circuit, a burning smell - and where in Brighton you are.
We check which vetted electrician is already working closest to you, not booked in from outside the city.
You're told the call-out rate and what the job's likely to involve before anyone sets off.
Identity confirmed, fault explained in plain English, and the same electrician sees it through.
One number covers all of it, from a quick fault fix to a full rewire.

A quick reference for what our electricians usually find behind the most common calls we get across the city.
| What's happening | What it usually means |
|---|---|
| Fuse board won't reset in a conversion flat | Usually a fault on one circuit dragging the whole board down - we isolate it circuit by circuit rather than just flipping the main switch and hoping. |
| Sockets dead in one flat of a converted townhouse | Common where a shared consumer unit serves several flats, each added or altered at a different time by a different owner. |
| Burning smell near a socket or panel | Treated as a same-day priority - usually a loose connection or overloaded circuit that needs isolating immediately. |
| Lights flickering across a whole flat | Often points to a loose connection at the consumer unit, or in a converted property, a fault on a shared supply. |
| New socket or light needed without damaging period plasterwork | Common in Brighton's conservation areas - usually means routing cable through existing voids rather than chasing into original walls. |
Seafront properties and Victorian terraces don't always agree with modern electrics, and Brighton's older housing throws up its fair share of ageing wiring and overloaded circuits. If a room's gone dark, a switch is warm to the touch, or your consumer unit keeps tripping the moment you reset it, that's a fault worth calling in straight away rather than working around. Our technicians cover the city and the surrounding coastal areas, so help isn't coming from miles inland.
Ring us, tell us what's happening, and we'll get someone qualified moving toward you.
The service covers the whole of Brighton and Hove, from the seafront out to every surrounding neighbourhood - not just the list below, but everywhere in between as well.
We dispatch whoever's already working nearest to you rather than sending someone across the city, so most Brighton call-outs land within our 30-60 minute average - the steeper streets above the seafront included.
Yes. A lot of Brighton's seafront Regency and Victorian townhouses have been converted into multiple flats, and because many sit within conservation areas, running new cable or fitting a consumer unit often has to be done without cutting into original coving, cornicing or plasterwork. Our electricians know how to route round period features rather than through them.
Yes. Many of Brighton's converted townhouses have shared or individual consumer units serving several flats, sometimes with circuits added at different times by different owners. Our electricians are used to working out which one is actually causing a problem.
