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

What do I do until the electrician arrives?
Switch off the supply at the board for the affected circuit or, if you can't identify it, the main switch. Don't use sockets or appliances in that area and don't repeatedly reset a breaker that keeps tripping. If you smell burning or see smoke, cut the power entirely and ventilate.
What does it mean when the breaker trips the moment I reset it?
That's the classic sign of a short circuit on that circuit — live touching neutral or the protective conductor. Common causes are a faulty appliance, a socket with water ingress, a cable cut while drilling, or a connection that has come loose in a junction box. Don't keep resetting: each attempt puts further stress on the installation.
Why does the RCD trip for no apparent reason?
An RCD detects current leaking to earth. Repeated tripping usually points to moisture in a junction box or outdoor light fitting, a water heater with a failed element, a washing machine with an insulation fault, or a cable with damaged insulation. The electrician isolates circuits one at a time to find the source.
I smelled hot plastic near the consumer unit. What should I do?
Switch off the main breaker immediately and call a licensed electrician. A hot plastic smell indicates a loose connection overheating, one of the most common causes of electrical fires. Don't open the board and don't attempt to tighten connections yourself.
The socket has gone black and sparks when I plug in. Is it serious?
Yes, it needs resolving quickly. Blackening and sparking indicate a loose contact arcing every time it's used. Stop using that socket and switch off the circuit at the board. The electrician will replace the socket and check whether the cable behind it has also been heat-damaged.
I drilled into a wall and the power went out in Covasna. What now?
You've most likely cut a buried cable. Don't pull the bit out if it's still in the wall and don't touch the area; switch off the power at the board first. An electrician in Covasna will open the wall locally, remake the joint in an accessible junction box, and test the circuit's insulation before re-energising.
