Electrical repairs Hove

We carry out all kinds of electrical repairs in Hove, including an RCD that trips again and again and power loss in part of the house. Wherever possible we come out the same or next day, and every repair has a fixed price agreed in advance. We'll explain everything clearly before work begins.

Electrical repairs for Hove households

Our electricians in Hove fix faults with lighting, sockets, switches and consumer units. They also repair the wiring that connects them.

An RCD trips when it detects electricity leaking to earth, often because of damp or a faulty appliance. Your electrician will find the circuit causing the trip and repair it.

When you book, you tell us what's wrong and choose a date. We then confirm the appointment and send an electrician to your home.

On the day, your electrician tests the wiring, finds the fault and talks you through the repair. Then they carry out the work and check everything is safe.

Some faults affect the whole house, while others only stop one socket or light working. Either way, the visit starts with the same checks. Your electrician tests the circuit, finds the weak point and repairs it.

It helps to note when the fault started and whether anything else changed, such as a new appliance. Share this when you book, and your electrician can plan the visit.

Smoke alarm electrical services in Hove

Is a smoke alarm chirping or going off when there's no smoke? Our electricians in Hove can find out why and fix it.

We carry out smoke detector repairs on the alarms in your home. If an alarm is old or faulty, we can install a new one for you.

Landlords and homeowners also book us to add alarms when they update a room.

Your electrician will check that each alarm works before they leave, so you know your home is covered.

It's a good idea to test your smoke alarms once a month by pressing the test button. If an alarm doesn't sound, book a repair or a replacement.

Hove Electrical Repairs FAQs

Thinking about booking electrical repairs in Hove? Here are answers to the questions we hear most, and our FAQ page has more.

Are your electricians in Hove fully trained?

Yes. We only send qualified electricians, and every one is vetted by our team. They have experience with all kinds of home electrics, from lighting circuits to consumer units. You can also read reviews from our customers on Trustpilot, where we're rated Great.

Do landlords in Hove need an EICR?

Yes, they do. Each rental property needs an Electrical Installation Condition Report every 5 years. Our electricians check the whole installation, from the fuse box to every socket and switch. You get a written report, and we can fix any faults it lists.

What should I do if my fuse box trips?

Your consumer unit trips when it senses a problem, such as a short circuit or an overloaded circuit. Faulty appliances and worn cables are common causes. If it trips often, don't keep resetting it. Book an electrician to check the circuit and fix the cause.

Can my old fuse box be replaced?

We can. If your fuse box is old, damaged or keeps tripping for no clear reason, a new consumer unit may be the answer. Book a visit and your electrician will look at it, explain your options and carry out the replacement if you need one.

Why does my socket smell like burning?

It usually means a fitting is overheating, often because of a loose or damaged connection. That's a fire risk, so don't ignore it. Switch off the power at the fuse box, but only if you can reach it safely. Our electricians will then trace the fault and repair it properly.
