What we do

Our electrician services in the South West

  • Circuit Breakers

    Breakers that will not reset, nuisance tripping, or an MCB that has failed outright — often the first thing to show up in a property that has stood empty.

  • Electrical Repairs

    Sockets, lighting, circuits and connections put right and tested before we leave, in homes, holiday lets and small commercial premises.

  • Electrical Fault Finding

    Traced with test equipment rather than guessed at — including surface-run and conduit circuits in solid stone where there is no cavity to work in.

  • Residential Lighting

    Dead lighting circuits, flickering fittings, failed transformers, and the outside lighting that takes the weather on an exposed coast.

  • Electric Panel Repairs

    Consumer units and distribution boards: loose terminals, burnt busbars, failed RCDs and full board replacements.

  • Emergency Electrician

    Same-hour callout across all twelve towns and the villages beyond them, 24 hours a day.

  • Electrical Burning Smell

    Always urgent, and more so under thatch. Switch the circuit off at the board if you safely can, then call — we prioritise these above everything else.

  • Switches & Sockets Repair

    Sparking, buzzing, scorched or warm to the touch. Faulty accessories isolated and replaced on the spot.

  • Fuse Box Tripping

    We split the circuits down to find what is pulling the board out, rather than leaving you resetting it all night.

Twelve towns across Bristol, Somerset, Bath & North East Somerset, Gloucestershire, Wiltshire, Dorset, Devon and Cornwall — postcode areas BA, BH, BS, DT, EX, GL, PL, SN, SP, TA, TQ and TR, plus the villages beyond them. Call 02034112027 and we will tell you how long we will be before you commit to anything.

Working in the South West

Solid stone, holiday lets, and a very long peninsula.

A great deal of this region is built of stone with no cavity to hide anything in. In Bath, and in the cottages and farmhouses running down through Somerset and Devon, circuits are surface-run, buried in conduit or chased into walls that nobody is going to let you cut about — and in a listed building you often cannot simply take a new route. Finding the fault means following the cable that is actually there, which is slower work and exactly why we turn up with test equipment rather than a box of parts.

Then there are the lets. Cornwall, Devon and Dorset run on holiday cottages and second homes, and they tend to fail at the worst possible moment: a changeover afternoon, a full house arriving, and an owner two hundred miles away. We are used to working through keyholders, agents and caretakers, and to sending photographs and a written account of what we found to someone who cannot come and look.

Distance is the honest constraint here. Truro to Gloucester is the better part of a day, so our electricians are based right across the region rather than dispatched from one depot — and if you are somewhere that will genuinely take us longer, we say so on the phone instead of letting you wait and wonder.

The whole village is dark. Who do I call?

Dial 105 free from any phone and you will be routed to whichever network operator covers your postcode — National Grid Electricity Distribution across most of the South West, and Scottish and Southern Electricity Networks in parts of Dorset and Wiltshire. A fault affecting several properties is theirs to fix, and nobody should charge you to tell you that. If your property alone is dark, it is ours.

It is a holiday let and I am two hundred miles away.

That is a normal week for us down here. Give us the keyholder, caretaker or agent when you call and we will arrange access with them directly. You get photographs and a written account of what we found and what we did, so you are not relying on a guest’s description of it.

My property is listed or thatched. Can you still work on it?

Yes, and we are used to the constraints. In a listed building we work with the routes that already exist rather than cutting new ones, and anything that would need consent we flag before touching it. If you have thatch and you can smell burning or see scorching, treat it as an emergency, kill the circuit at the board if you safely can, and call us straight away.

The place has been empty all winter and now the board keeps tripping.

Very common in a second home or a let that has stood unused. Damp works its way into sockets, immersion heaters, outside lights and anything in an unheated outbuilding, and the RCD finds it the moment everything is switched back on. We test circuit by circuit to identify what has taken on moisture instead of condemning the whole installation.

I am miles from the nearest of your twelve towns.

The town list is where our electricians are based, not a boundary, and a lot of this region is open country. Give us the postcode when you call and we will tell you the real travel time rather than quote you a standard one we cannot keep.

Which trades do you cover here?

Electricians, plumbers and locksmiths, all on call around the clock across the same twelve towns. The links above take you to the plumbing and locksmith pages for the South West.
