Emergency electrician support in Selsdon

  1. 01

    When only part of the house is off

    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.

  2. 02

    Protecting your fridge and freezer

    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.

  3. 03

    After a leak, flood or fire

    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.

Booking an emergency electrician in Selsdon

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.

Emergency electrician in Selsdon: your questions

Half my house in Selsdon has no power, is it an emergency?

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.

My freezer circuit keeps tripping in Selsdon, what should I do?

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.

Can you check my electrics after a leak in Selsdon?

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.

What should I tell you when I call about an emergency in Selsdon?

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.
