An electrical emergency is any situation where there is an immediate risk of injury, fire, or property damage from the electrical installation. This includes complete power failures, burning smells from sockets or the consumer unit, exposed wiring, sparking, electric shocks, and water ingress near electrical equipment. If you're experiencing any of these situations, do not attempt to investigate or repair the problem yourself. Switch off the main supply if it's safe to do so, and call us immediately on 07935 839378. We provide 24/7 emergency call-outs across Cobham, Weybridge, Esher, Oxshott, Walton-on-Thames, and the wider Surrey area. Our average response time is 45 minutes, and we carry a full range of parts and equipment to resolve most emergencies in a single visit. Unlike many emergency services, we don't charge call-out fees. You pay only for the work carried out, with transparent pricing agreed before we start. Need expert help?

What starts as a tripping circuit breaker can indicate a serious underlying fault that poses immediate danger. Delaying response increases risk exponentially: - Burning smells from electrical accessories indicate overheating — a direct precursor to fire - Partial power loss can indicate a broken neutral, which can cause dangerous overvoltage on remaining circuits - Water near live electrical equipment creates a lethal shock hazard - Sparking at sockets, switches, or the consumer unit can ignite surrounding materials - A complete power failure in winter leaves vulnerable occupants without heating, lighting, or refrigeration - Exposed wiring from storm damage or accidental disturbance presents an immediate electrocution risk ## What Happens When You Call Us 1 ### Immediate Phone Assessment You call 07935 839378 and speak to a qualified electrician — not an answering service. We assess the urgency, provide safety advice, and dispatch immediately if the situation requires it. 2 ### Fast Arrival We aim to reach you within 45 minutes across Cobham and Surrey. Our van carries a comprehensive stock of parts, tools, and testing equipment to handle most emergencies without needing to source materials. 3 ### Make Safe The first priority is always safety. We isolate the fault, make the area safe, and ensure there is no ongoing risk to occupants or the property. If the power needs to remain off to a specific area, we explain why and for how long. 4 ### Diagnosis & Repair We identify the root cause of the problem using professional diagnostic equipment. Where possible, we carry out permanent repairs during the same visit. If a larger repair is needed, we provide a temporary safe solution and schedule the follow-up work. 5 ### Testing & Documentation All work is tested to BS 7671 standards. You receive appropriate documentation, and we explain what was found, what was done, and any recommendations for follow-up work. ## Why Call Us for Electrical Emergencies ### Genuinely Available 24/7 Not a call centre. Not a voicemail. You speak to a qualified electrician who can assess, advise, and respond immediately — any time of day or night. ### No Call-Out Fee We don't charge you for turning up. You pay only for the work carried out, with transparent pricing agreed before we begin. ### 45-Minute Average Response Based in Cobham, we reach most Surrey locations within 45 minutes. For life-threatening emergencies, we prioritise dispatch. ### Fully Stocked Van We carry consumer units, MCBs, RCDs, cable, connectors, fuses, and testing equipment — most emergencies are resolved in one visit. ### Permanent Fixes, Not Patches We don't apply temporary tape-and-hope repairs. Every emergency call-out includes proper diagnosis and, where possible, a permanent repair. ### NAPIT Registered & Insured Full public liability insurance and NAPIT registration. Your property and our work are fully covered. ## Common Electrical Emergencies We Attend in Cobham & Surrey The most common emergency call-outs we attend include complete power failures, partial power loss (single circuits or areas of the property), persistent RCD tripping, burning smells from electrical accessories, electric shocks from appliances or fittings, storm damage to external wiring, and water ingress affecting electrical installations. Complete power failures can be caused by supply-side issues (contact your Distribution Network Operator — UK Power Networks for Surrey), main fuse failure, or a fault within the property's installation. We carry out systematic testing to determine whether the fault is internal or external and resolve it accordingly. Partial power loss — where some circuits work and others don't — often indicates a tripped MCB or RCD. If the device trips again after being reset, there is an underlying fault that requires professional diagnosis. Common causes include failed appliances, damaged cables (often from DIY mishaps or rodent damage), and moisture ingress. RCD tripping is one of the most frequent emergency calls we attend. RCDs can trip due to faulty appliances, degraded wiring, moisture in outdoor circuits, or failed heating elements in immersion heaters and electric showers. We use systematic isolation testing to identify the faulty circuit and the specific cause. Burning smells from sockets, switches, or the consumer unit should always be treated as urgent. Common causes include loose terminal connections (which overheat under load), overrated fuses, damaged cables, and consumer units with poor-quality connections. We isolate and replace affected components and test the entire circuit. For properties in Cobham and the surrounding Surrey villages, storm damage is a regular occurrence — particularly affecting external lighting, garden power supplies, and overhead service cables. We make these situations safe immediately and carry out permanent repairs as soon as conditions allow.
