“Power went out completely at 9pm on a Sunday and I had a freezer full of food. They answered straight away, talked me through isolating everything safely, and had someone here within 90 minutes. Turned out to be a fault in the consumer unit which they replaced that night. Saved all my food and got proper certification too. Couldn't believe how calm and professional they were under pressure.”
Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about our services and how we can help you
How quickly can you respond to electrical emergencies in Birmingham?
You'll typically get a response within 90 minutes across Birmingham and the wider West Midlands. We dispatch fully equipped vans immediately after your call, with qualified electricians who assess the severity and prioritise dangerous situations like exposed wiring or burning smells. Since 1993, we've maintained rapid response times that have helped over 2,758 customers during urgent electrical faults.
What counts as an electrical emergency that needs immediate attention?
You need immediate help if you experience burning smells from sockets or fuse boxes, sparks or arcing from electrical points, complete power loss, exposed live wiring, or electric shocks from appliances. These situations pose serious fire and safety risks that require professional isolation and repair. We'll talk you through making things safe over the phone whilst our electrician travels to your property.
How much does emergency electrical work typically cost?
You'll receive transparent fixed pricing before any work begins, with no hidden charges afterwards. Emergency callout costs vary depending on fault complexity and time of day, but we provide clear breakdowns upfront so you can make informed decisions. Our 4.9 rating from thousands of customers reflects fair pricing even during urgent situations, and all repairs include proper certification for insurance purposes.
Will I get proper certification for emergency electrical repairs?
Yes, you receive full electrical certificates for every emergency repair we complete. All work meets 18th Edition standards, performed by electricians holding current qualifications, with our Principal Duty Holder C&G 2391 certified. As a NICEIC Approved Contractor, we provide detailed documentation that satisfies insurance requirements and UK safety regulations, protecting your property value and legal compliance.
Can you fix electrical faults outside normal working hours?
Absolutely—electrical emergencies don't follow business hours, so neither do we. You can reach qualified electricians directly on our rapid response line evenings, weekends and bank holidays. We've restored power at 9pm on Sundays and handled Saturday morning shop failures, ensuring you're never left unsafe or without power when you need urgent help most.
What happens if the problem is more serious than expected?
We'll reassess and explain your options clearly in plain English, providing updated pricing before proceeding with additional work. Our fully stocked vans carry quality components for most repairs, meaning we can often complete complex fixes during the same visit. You'll never face surprise charges—we believe in transparent communication, especially during stressful emergency situations.
Do you handle commercial electrical emergencies as well as domestic?
Yes, we respond to both residential and commercial electrical emergencies across Birmingham. We've restored power to shops during trading hours, rescued city centre cafes from major electrical disasters, and maintain ongoing contracts with Birmingham City Council and local housing associations. Our experience spans everything from home consumer unit failures to complex commercial installations requiring rapid turnaround.
Why should I call professionals rather than attempting emergency repairs myself?
Electrical emergencies involve live circuits that can cause fatal shocks, serious burns, or house fires if handled incorrectly. You also risk invalidating insurance and creating dangerous hidden faults that worsen over time. Our qualified electricians isolate circuits safely, diagnose root causes accurately with professional testing equipment, and complete certified repairs that protect your family and property legally.
What if the previous electrician left incomplete or dangerous work?
We specialise in remedial work and have rescued properties from negligent contractors who left messy, incomplete installations without plans or drawings. Our team assesses existing damage, creates compliant solutions within tight deadlines and budgets, and provides full certification once remedial fixes are complete. This expertise has secured repeat contracts with high-profile organisations who trust our problem-solving abilities.
How do I know the fault won't happen again after repair?
We identify and fix root causes rather than applying temporary patches, using quality components and proper installation techniques that prevent recurrence. You'll receive clear guidance on avoiding similar faults, and we offer follow-up inspections for complex repairs. Our preventative maintenance advice helps you spot warning signs early, and most of our 2,758 customers came through word-of-mouth referrals because repairs stay fixed.
Can you help if my rental property has an electrical emergency?
Absolutely—we understand landlords need rapid turnaround with proper documentation for tenant safety and legal compliance. We've handled burning smells in rental fuse boxes, identified dangerous bodge jobs from previous contractors, and provided full reports for landlord records. Our quick response minimises tenant disruption whilst ensuring your property meets UK safety regulations completely, protecting you from liability issues.

Our local presence since 1993 means we know the area thoroughly and can reach you quickly from multiple dispatch points. Whether you're in the city centre, suburbs, or surrounding towns, you'll receive the same qualified electricians, fully stocked vans, and certified emergency repairs that have earned our 4.9 rating.
