Electrical repairs Accrington

Our fully trained electricians carry out electrical repairs in Accrington, whether it's sockets that have stopped working or a switch that buzzes. You pay the fixed price you agree at booking, and we aim to visit on the same or next day. We'll work around your schedule wherever we can.

Getting electrical repairs in Accrington

Our electricians repair faults in lights, sockets, switches and fuse boxes. They work in houses and flats right across Accrington.

Buzzing, crackling or warm fittings are signs that something isn't right. Our electricians check the fitting and the cables behind it, then replace any parts that have been damaged.

Once you've booked, our team confirms your appointment. Your electrician arrives on the agreed day with the tools to test each circuit.

During the visit, your electrician will check the fault, repair it and test the circuit. You'll know what was wrong and what they did to fix it.

Outdoor faults are covered too. Garden lights, outside sockets and security lights can all be checked and repaired, along with the cables that feed them from the house.

A loose plug socket can expose you to sparks and live voltage. It's worth getting it repaired or replaced rather than living with it.

If a fault affects your fridge or freezer, let us know when you book. It helps us understand how urgent the repair is, and urgent faults are always our first priority.

More ways we can help in Accrington

Besides electrical repairs, you can book:

EICRs from electricians in Accrington

An EICR, or Electrical Installation Condition Report, shows whether the electrics in a property are safe. Our electricians in Accrington test the wiring, sockets, switches and fuse box against the wiring regulations.

Homeowners are advised to book one every 10 years, and landlords need one every 5 years. Many buyers also ask for an EICR before they move in.

You'll get a written report at the end. If it lists anything that needs fixing, we can carry out the repairs for you.

Booking an EICR works in the same way as booking a repair, and you can choose the date online.

An EICR also gives you a useful record of the condition of your electrics. It can help when you sell your home or plan other work.

Accrington Electrical Repairs FAQs

Before you book electrical repairs in Accrington, you may find these answers useful. Our FAQs cover more.

What do I do if my plug socket smells hot?

Treat it as an emergency. The cause is often a loose wire, a damaged plug or too many appliances on one socket. If it's safe, switch off the power at the fuse box. An electrician should check the socket and the wiring before you use it again.

Do electricians charge for coming out?

No. There are no hidden fees for coming out or for labour. You'll agree a fixed price for the repair before the visit, so you won't get an unexpected bill. Emergency repairs work the same way, with the price agreed up front.

Does someone need to be home for an electrician?

Yes. Your electrician will need someone to let them in and talk through what's been happening. If you can't be there, another adult can stay in your place. It also helps to clear the area around your fuse box before they arrive.

Do I need a new consumer unit?

Not always. Many fuse box faults can be repaired, but older units sometimes need replacing. Your electrician will check the condition of your consumer unit and the circuits it controls. They'll then tell you whether a repair or a new unit makes more sense.

Why do my lights flicker?

A loose bulb is often the reason, so start there. Other causes include a bulb that doesn't suit your dimmer, a faulty dimmer switch, a loose connection or worn wiring. If the flicker carries on, our electricians can test the circuit and fix it safely.
