Our emergency electrician in Selsdon helps when part or all of your home loses power, a circuit won't reset or the electrics have been affected by a leak. We cover Selsdon 24/7, with no call-out charge.

If some rooms have power and others don't, one circuit or one RCD has usually tripped. Try switching off anything plugged in on that circuit and resetting it. If it trips straight away or won't reset at all, there's a fault that needs tracing.
A full freezer usually stays frozen for many hours if the door stays shut, so don't keep opening it to check. If the freezer is on a circuit that keeps tripping, we can test it and the appliance to see which is at fault and get it back on safely.
If water has come through a ceiling or there has been a fire, don't switch the affected circuits back on until they've been tested. Water and heat can damage cables and fittings in ways you can't see. We test and make safe, and give you a report for your insurer.
Selsdon is a short trip from our South Croydon base. Ring us, describe what's happened and we'll tell you whether it's safe to leave the rest of the house on while you wait for an electrician to arrive.
We find which circuit is affected, test it and trace the fault. Where we can, we repair it there and then and restore your power. If parts or larger repairs are needed, we make things safe and give you a free quote first.
Call or send a message about the job. For urgent faults we aim to respond the same day, with no call-out charge.
An electrician comes out, checks the job and talks you through the options, then you get a free, no-obligation quote.
When the work is finished, we test everything we've worked on and hand over the right certificate for the job.
It depends on what's affected. If heating, the freezer or medical equipment are off, or a switch won't reset, treat it as urgent and call us. If it's just a few lights and the rest works, it's still worth getting checked soon, as the cause won't go away by itself.
Plug the freezer into a socket on a different circuit using a suitable lead, if you can do so safely, and keep the door shut. Then call us. We'll test the circuit and the freezer to see whether the fault is in the wiring or the appliance.
Yes. Leave the affected circuits off and call us. We'll test the wiring, sockets and fittings that got wet, dry and replace parts where needed and confirm when it's safe to switch back on. We can also give you a written report for your insurance claim.
Tell us what you can see, hear or smell, which rooms or circuits are affected and whether anything has tripped. Mention any water, recent work or new appliances. That helps us judge how urgent it is and what to bring.
We also respond to emergencies in these nearby areas.
