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. We’ll always give you a timeframe upfront.

  • 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.
