Round-the-clock call-outs for power cuts, faults and anything that can't wait until morning.
Faults traced and isolated fast, whether it's a tripped board or a fault you can't pin down.
Consumer units installed, upgraded or replaced to bring older boards up to modern standards.
New circuits and full rewires carried out to current wiring regulations.
Lighting upgrades and new installations, from single fittings to full LED systems.
RCD protection fitted and certified, so faults trip safely before they become dangerous.
These are the call-outs that come up again and again, and what's usually causing them.
| What's happening | What it usually means |
|---|---|
| Total loss of power | Often a tripped main switch, or a fault on cabling routed around exposed timber framing. |
| Fuse board keeps tripping | Frequently an overloaded circuit or a fault developing somewhere on the ring. |
| Burning smell near the consumer unit | Always treated as urgent - usually a loose connection generating heat. |
| Socket not where you'd expect it | Common in timber-framed town centre buildings, where cabling follows the beams rather than a straight wall run. |
| Lights flickering across the property | Can point to a loose neutral connection, which needs proper diagnosis rather than guesswork. |
Shrewsbury's town centre is full of timber-framed and period properties, and our emergency electrician Shrewsbury team is well practised in fault-finding through wiring that's been rerouted and patched over generations rather than properly rewired. If a circuit keeps tripping, a plug socket feels hot, or half your lighting's gone out with no clear reason, that's a call for an urgent electrician, not something to leave until morning. Engineers carry parts suited to exactly this kind of older housing.
