Frequently Asked Questions
-
If your power is cutting out unexpectedly, lights are flickering, fuses are blowing, or appliances stop working, these are all signs something deeper is wrong. It's best to book an inspection before the issue worsens or becomes dangerous.
-
While you can check if an appliance is causing the issue (by unplugging devices), we strongly recommend against DIY electrical work. Incorrect handling can be unsafe and illegal. Always call a licensed electrician.
-
Most diagnostic visits take between 30-90 minutes, depending on the complexity of the issue.
-
If you see sparks, smell burning, or have no power - call us immediately. We’ll advise if it’s urgent and get to you as quickly as possible.
