Electrical repair and fault finding, Northampton
Faults other electricians have given up on, tripping breakers, and repairs on installations we didn't originally fit.
Every kind of electrical fault, one team
From a single dead socket to a fault two other electricians have already looked at. Pick one to see what's included.
Electrical fault finding
Faults other electricians have given up on, including intermittent ones that are hard to pin down.
- Proper testing equipment on every callout, not a visual check
- Intermittent faults that only happen occasionally
- Faults already looked at once and not found
- Repairs on installations we didn’t originally fit
- A written explanation of what was actually wrong
- Same-week callouts where possible
Intermittent faults are the hardest kind, the ones that only happen occasionally and have already been looked at once without being found. We carry proper testing equipment rather than guessing at the obvious cause, which is usually why we're the second call, not the first.
Breakers that keep tripping
A tripping breaker is usually telling you something specific, we find out what.
- Overloaded circuits identified and corrected
- Faulty appliances and wiring isolated from genuine circuit faults
- RCD nuisance tripping diagnosed properly, not just reset
- Checked against the whole circuit, not just the breaker itself
- Explained in plain terms once found
- Repair carried out same visit where possible
A breaker that keeps tripping is doing its job, protecting the circuit from something, so the fix is finding the actual cause rather than resetting it and hoping. Sometimes it's an overloaded circuit, sometimes a faulty appliance, sometimes a genuine wiring fault; we test to tell the difference.
Socket and lighting circuit repairs
Dead sockets, flickering lights and circuits that have stopped working.
- Dead or partially working socket circuits
- Flickering, dimming or failed lighting circuits
- Faults isolated to the actual cause, not the nearest symptom
- Repairs on wiring we didn’t originally install
- Certified once the repair is complete
- Same-week callouts where possible
A dead socket or a flickering light is sometimes the fault itself and sometimes a symptom of something else on the same circuit. We check which it is before repairing it, so you're not calling us back out for the same underlying issue a month later.
Urgent electrical callouts
A genuinely urgent fault gets a phone call, not a form.
- Direct phone line for genuinely urgent faults
- Faster response than the standard callout queue
- Assessed honestly, not upsold as urgent when it isn’t
- Same NICEIC-registered engineers as standard work
- Available across our full coverage area
- Certified once the fault is resolved
Most electrical faults aren't emergencies, but some genuinely are. Call us directly if something's actually dangerous, exposed wiring, burning smell, anything like that, and say so; we'll ask a few quick questions and move faster than the standard enquiry route.

Electrical repairs in Northampton, answered
If yours isn't here, call and ask, a straight answer, not a sales pitch.
Ask us a questionIt usually means a circuit is overloaded, or there's a fault somewhere on it, but it can be several different things. We test properly to find the actual cause rather than guessing at the obvious one.
Yes, it's a large part of what we're called out for. Intermittent faults that only happen occasionally are the hardest kind, and we carry proper testing equipment rather than relying on a visual check.
Yes. Most of our repair work is on wiring and installations we had no part in fitting.
Same-week callouts where possible for non-urgent faults. If it's genuinely urgent, call us directly rather than filling in a form and we'll move faster.
For anything that's actually dangerous, yes, call us and say so. Most tripping breakers and dead sockets aren't emergencies, but we'll always ask enough to tell the difference.
Yes, we explain what the fault was and what we did about it, not just that it’s fixed.
