What changes the price of fault finding
Electrical fault finding and repairs start at £70 per hour. That hour covers arrival, tests on the affected circuit and a clear cause when we can pin it down on the visit.
- The £70 per hour starting price is for tracing and repair time, not a set fee for every fault.
- Parts, extra circuits and a return visit sit on a written price before that work starts.
- We answer the phone at any hour. Booked visits sit in our opening hours.
