Back to topWhen you find yourself in a pickle with your electrics it is best to do some checks first to see if you really do need an electrician. After all, itβs best not to pay for electrical services if you do not need to, right? π So, first thing is first. Do you have a TOTAL POWER CUT? By this I mean, absolutely NO sockets, No lights, No electric shower, and No electric cooker? Also, has anything tripped at the consumer unit / fuse box?
Sometimes there can be a fault out in the street which can mean that nothing will trip in your consumer unit by you will still have absolutely no electricity in your home at all. In these cases, there is not much an electrician can do to help.
If you are unsure if anything has tripped in your consumer unit then maybe have a check of our help sheet to see if there is anything you can do yourself? We have a step-by-step guide to restoring power available FOR FREE on our website. It can be found here:

If something has tripped then that help sheet should help somewhat.
Back to topGive 105 a call if you have absolutely no power. This will put you through to the local company that provide the supply into your home and look after the electrical system in the street and beyond. In the Leigh area it is Electricity North West. They will be able to tell you if there are any planned works in the area or any known faults that mean there are power supply issues in your area. Before calling an EMERGENCY ELECTRICIAN IN LEIGH it is often best to carry out these checks and make a couple of phone calls to see if there is anything else affecting your electricity to your home.
Back to topIf your electric meter has no lights and the screen is dead then it may be an issue with the supply to your home or with your electric meter. You can ring the company that you pay your electric bills to see if they know of any issues. If you have a smart meter, they are usually able to communicate with this and tell you if there are problems.
Back to topIf you have had no success with any of the above then it may be that you definitely DO need an electrician to come out and check what is happening with your electrical installation.

Call us on 01925 595 980 we can attend emergencies day and night in Leigh and surrounding areas. We aim to get you back up and running as quickly as possible with minimal fuss.
If you do require us to come out and investigate your electrical problem it will always save time if you can make sure there is good clear working access to your fuse box or consumer unit. Most electrical investigations begin in this area and then from there we will find out what has happened to allow us to further investigate and trace the issue.
Back to topFixing electrical faults can involve a whole host of different parts, tests, and unknown quantity of time. As such it is impossible to put a fixed cost on an electrical fault repair. This is not particularly helpful if you are a concerned customer hoping to get an idea of price for your problem and I do truly understand this. Let me assure you that we are about half the cost of national call centre type electrician firms in the first instance. Many companies charge around double our rates. We also specialise in this type of work as our priority so tend to be possibly slightly quicker than another electrician that does minimal fault finding or testing work π
Whatever the issue, after the first hour if the problem is not fixed, we are able to have a conversation with you about the problem, what is happening and what is needed in order to repair it. Most issues are resolved in the first hour and everyone is happy by occasionally things can take a little longer. Whatever happens we will communicate with you, keeping you informed every step of the way.
