To The Rescue

Yes, and they take priority over booked work. A house with no supply, a breaker that refuses to stay up, a scorched socket or a hot smell near the board all count. Ring 0114 463 0369 and describe what you can see — we'll tell you which switch to pull before we set off, then give you a straight arrival time rather than a four-hour window.

The whole city and its edges — Crookes, Walkley, Hillsborough, Broomhill, Nether Edge, Sharrow, Heeley, Woodseats, Meersbrook, Gleadless, Handsworth, Darnall, Attercliffe, Firth Park, Shiregreen, Stannington, Fulwood, Dore, Totley, Bradway, Mosborough and Halfway. Out to Chapeltown, Ecclesfield, Stocksbridge, Oughtibridge, Dronfield, Killamarsh and the villages towards the Peak as well.

It changes the routing more than the work. Sloping plots mean the cellar is often at the front and level with the street, the garden sits above the back bedroom, and the meter can end up somewhere awkward. The upside is that cellars and lofts usually give a clean run between floors, so a rewire here can disturb less plaster than in a flat-plot house.

It depends entirely what it is. Small, well-described jobs we can put a figure on over the phone. Rewires, board changes and anything in an older house where we can't see what we're inheriting, we come and look first — quoting those blind helps nobody. The number is agreed before work starts either way.

A satisfactory Electrical Installation Condition Report for each let property, renewed at least every five years, with a copy to tenants. If it's a licensed HMO the council will want to see it as part of the licence too. We can work around term dates and changeover weeks, which usually matters more to landlords here than the price does.

Usually, but it needs looking at. A slope changes where the lead will naturally sit and whether it'll reach the car's socket at all, and a shared drive needs an agreement with whoever else uses it. What we won't do is run a cable across a public footpath. Describe the parking on the phone and we'll give you a straight answer.

Everything fixed in the building gets inspected and tested — the board, the circuits behind the walls, sockets and lighting, and the earthing and bonding arrangements. You get a written verdict of satisfactory or unsatisfactory with any problems graded by seriousness. We translate the grades into plain English and quote repairs on their own so you aren't cornered.

Most often it's the drivers rather than the lamps, or an integrated fitting where the two can't be separated so the whole unit goes. Poor ventilation above a ceiling shortens their life considerably, and dimmers that were never matched to the lamps will finish them off early. Worth diagnosing rather than replacing the same fitting twice.

Yes. Unit and workshop lighting, shop and office wiring, three-phase distribution, emergency lighting installation and testing, and planned maintenance. We'll phase noisy or disruptive work around your opening hours where the job allows it.

Ring 0114 463 0369 and you'll speak to an electrician rather than an office. Or use the quote card at the top of this page or the fuller form below — both arrive with us as you send them and we'll come back to fix a time.
