24/7 · West Midlands
Terraced streets in Birmingham, workshops wedged between front doors across the Black Country, the Potteries at Stoke, and black-and-white timber-framed villages out towards Hereford. Ten towns across five counties, and an electrician on call in all of them at every hour of the night.

What we do
Breakers that will not reset, nuisance tripping, or an MCB that has failed outright, on domestic boards and small commercial distribution alike.
Sockets, lighting, circuits and connections put right and tested before we leave, in terraces, flats, shops and the units behind them.
Traced with test equipment rather than guessed at — including working out whether the problem is yours at all, or the premises next door.
Dead lighting circuits, flickering fittings, failed transformers, and the shared hallway and stair lighting in converted terraces.
Consumer units and distribution boards: loose terminals, burnt busbars, failed RCDs and full board replacements.
Same-hour callout across all ten towns and the country beyond them, 24 hours a day.
Always urgent, and more so in a timber-framed building. Switch the circuit off at the board if you safely can, then call us straight away.
Sparking, buzzing, scorched or warm to the touch. Faulty accessories isolated and replaced on the spot.
We split the circuits down to find what is pulling the board out, rather than leaving you resetting it all night.
Ten towns across the West Midlands county, Staffordshire, Shropshire, Worcestershire and Herefordshire — postcode areas B, CV, DY, HR, ST, SY, TF, WR, WS and WV, plus the villages between them. Call 02034112027 and we will tell you how long we will be before you commit to anything.
Working in the West Midlands
Industry never left the residential streets here. Across the Black Country and much of Birmingham you will find a unit, a workshop or a trade counter sitting between houses, running compressors, welders and machinery off the same local network as the terrace next door. So a fair number of our callouts start as “my lights dim every few minutes” and end with us establishing that nothing in the property is wrong at all. Knowing to check that first saves people a great deal of money.
The housing is dense and much of it has been divided. Victorian terraces split into flats, meters banked together in a shared hallway, and a consumer unit that may not be the one serving the sockets you are standing next to. We label as we go, because the next person in should not have to work it out again.
Out towards Shrewsbury, Worcester and Hereford it changes entirely. The black-and-white villages are timber framed, often listed, with wattle and daub between the posts and not a straight cable run in the building. In a frame that has been moving for four hundred years a loose connection is a fire risk rather than an inconvenience, which is why we test rather than assume, and why we flag anything needing consent before touching it.

West Midlands FAQ
Can’t see yours here? Call and ask — someone picks up at any hour of the day or night.
If several properties are out it is a fault on the supply network. Dial 105 free from any phone and you will be routed to whichever operator covers your postcode — National Grid Electricity Distribution across almost all of this region, though the far north of Shropshire falls to SP Energy Networks. Either way it is theirs to fix, and nobody should charge you to tell you that. If your property alone is dark, it is ours.
Around here that is a real possibility rather than a coincidence. Heavy machinery starting up on a shared local network can pull the voltage down enough to see it in your lights. We can test and tell you whether the cause is inside your installation or on the supply — and if it is the supply, it is a matter for the network operator on 105, not something you should be paying an electrician to rewire.
Very common in a terrace that has been divided into flats, and frequently nobody knows. We prove it by testing rather than guessing, so we are not switching off a neighbour’s supply to find out. Once we have established it we label it properly, so the next person called out does not have to repeat the exercise.
Yes, and the black-and-white properties out towards Hereford and Shrewsbury are familiar ground. We work with the routes that already exist rather than cutting new ones through a frame, and anything that would need consent we raise before we touch it. If you can smell burning in a timber-framed building, kill the circuit at the board if you safely can and call immediately — it is not a wait-until-morning job.
That is a good part of what we do here. Overnight and early morning callouts to workshops, shops and small industrial units, so the fault is cleared before trading starts. Tell us what the installation is when you call — single or three phase, and what has to be running by opening — and we will send someone equipped for it.
