About this service

A power cut affecting only part of the house, a socket giving off smoke, a smell of hot plastic near the consumer unit, or a breaker that trips the moment you reset it are situations that cannot wait. Emergency electrical repairs involve quickly identifying the fault, isolating the affected area, and making the installation safe again. A licensed electrician arrives with the necessary instruments — multimeter, continuity tester, clamp meter, sometimes a cable tracer — locates the short circuit or break, replaces the faulty component, and verifies by measurement that the rest of the installation is safe. Common call-outs include burnt sockets or switches, junction boxes with melted connections, cables cut while drilling a wall, RCDs that trip repeatedly, consumer units running hot, and faults following water ingress. On SmallJobs you'll find licensed electricians who can reach your area quickly.

What to check before hiring a emergency electrical repairs

Frequently Asked Questions

Only certain rooms have lost power. Why?
It means a dedicated circuit is broken, either at the protective device in the board or at a connection that has come loose along the route. If the circuit breaker is on but the area still has no supply, the fault is on the route — usually in a junction box where a terminal has loosened or oxidised.
Can an emergency be repaired without breaking into the walls?
In many cases yes. If the fault is in an accessible junction box, a socket, or the board, no work in the masonry is needed. Where a cable is cut between boxes, a new conductor can sometimes be pulled through the existing conduit. Local opening is only necessary when the route is inaccessible.
Can the electrician give me a temporary solution?
Yes, common practice is to isolate the faulty circuit and restore the rest of the installation, so you have power in the house until the permanent repair. The temporary arrangement must be safe and clearly explained — ask which circuit stays off and why.
What warranty applies to an emergency repair?
Labour is usually warranted for 6–24 months, with replaced components covered by the manufacturer's warranty. Ask for a receipt or invoice describing the work; the document matters if the problem returns or if you need it for insurance.
Is it worth calling a licensed electrician for a small emergency?
Yes. Even a burnt socket can conceal a degraded connection over a longer stretch of cable. A licensed electrician tests the condition of the circuit, not just the visibly faulty component, and tells you whether the problem is isolated or a symptom of an installation that needs replacing.
How do I prevent electrical faults in future?
Check periodically whether sockets or switches run warm, don't overload extension leads, avoid running large appliances on the same circuit, and have a full installation inspection every 5 years. Fitting a 30 mA RCD, if you don't have one, significantly reduces the risk of electric shock.
