Electrical fault finding in Liverpool

Electrical Faults Fixed are highly rated electricians serving Liverpool and Warrington. Here is our advice on things to look out for when searching for 'Best electrician near me'...

  • Good website that shows their work, what areas they cover and that has lots of helpful information.
  • Check that they are a proper company, this can be done on companies house and you can also see how long the company has been registered so you know they are not an overnight setup. Google also does checks….
  • Check their Google reviews out, a good electrician will have some Google reviews where you can see if previous customers are happy with their work. Google will also check their company details and establish how long they have been in business as well.
  • Check that they carry out the type of work that you want done. Its no-good hiring an electrician that specialises in new build wiring when you want some other type of job done. 
  • Ask them if they are happy to let you speak to a past customer or see some work they have done.

1) What should I check for?

  • You should check that your electrician is qualified, insured and registered with a competent persons scheme such as the NICEIC.
  • It is important that the electrician you choose has insurance to cover any incidents that may occur, they also need to be qualified and competent and that competency needs to be checked annually by a relevant competency certification scheme like the NICEIC. 
  • We are fully checked, insured and qualified.
  • Not only are we qualified but Paul teaches electricians the wiring regulations, testing and inspection and other subjects.
  • We pay thousands of pounds every year in order to be properly insured so YOU are covered.

2) Is cheap better?

It is tempting to keep shopping around for the absolute cheapest quote you can get isn’t it? After all, you only want an extra socket, a new fuse board / consumer unit, some garden lights…. How hard is it? 

We cannot compete to be the cheapest quote, ever. We will compete on quality, knowledge and customer service. That is where we excel! 

Electricity is a dangerous and deadly force. It cannot be detected by the nose like Gas, it cannot be seen with the eyes like cracks in a wall, it is undetectable and dangers can be hidden. Things can appear to work absolutely fine but dangers can lurk waiting for there to be a fault and it is then that things can go horribly wrong.

We carry out all work to the latest edition of the safety wiring regulations BS7671 and ensure that all work is certificated, tested with specialised test equipment and documented accordingly.

4) What are you doing in the photograph?

We are carrying out some safety testing on an electrical installation. The homeowner was worried that they had dangerous electrics after a home appliance company refused to install an appliance stating there was a problem with the socket. We were checking things over for this worried customer. They had a young child in the house and were very concerned. 

We regularly carry out electrical safety checks for people in their homes for a variety of reasons such as:

  • New home purchases
  • Consumer unit changes
  • After fire or flood damage
  • Old electrics that have never been checked before

6) Do you Guarantee to fix an emergency problem?

There is no problem that we cannot fix, repair or otherwise make good but it does come down to time and cost. There are occasions where it is necessary, once the fault has been pinned down, to have a frank discussion with you about costs / estimates. 

Some electrical installations still in service are simply so old that a repair would not be economically viable, sensible or in accordance with wiring regulations and in order to carry out a repair in such a manner would be cost prohibitive.
