What Brighton Customers Say
Recent callouts, in their own words.
“Our whole flat went dark at about eleven on a Friday. He was here in twenty-five minutes, found a burnt connection in the hall and had the power back before midnight.”
“The board had been tripping whenever it rained. Two others had reset it and left. These traced it to a corroded outside socket in under an hour and explained exactly why.”
“Manage a converted house of five flats. They sorted the shared landing circuit, dealt with the freeholder and sent the certificate through the same day.”
“Burning smell from a socket behind the bed. They told me what to isolate while driving over, then replaced the back box and tested the ring. Felt properly looked after.”
“Shop on the seafront lost power before opening. Someone arrived in half an hour and we traded on time. Invoice matched the quote exactly.”
“Student house with a board that could not cope. They explained the options plainly, upgraded the unit and left everything tidy. No pressure, no upselling.”
Seafront Damp, Split Terraces and Salt in Everything
Brighton has two problems most towns do not: nearly everything has been divided into flats, and the sea gets into all of it.
A Regency house on the seafront split into six flats will share lighting, stair and outside circuits in ways nobody recorded, so a fault in one home trips another. Add salt air that corrodes terminals behind faceplates that look spotless from the front, and student lets where circuits were divided room by room without the board ever being upgraded, and you have the three causes behind most of our Brighton callouts. We look for them first rather than last.
- Conversions, flats and seafront property
- Landlords, agents and student lets
- Corrosion and damp-related faults
- Certificates issued the same day
Questions From Brighton Callers
If what you are seeing is not here, phone and ask. It costs nothing to check.
Call 01273004151How quickly can you reach me in Brighton? +
Most addresses in Brighton and Hove see us within twenty-five to thirty-five minutes. The hill areas, Rottingdean and Saltdean can run a little longer, especially in summer traffic, and we give you a realistic window on the call.
Do you cover Hove and the villages too? +
Yes. Hove, Portslade, Aldrington, Patcham, Woodingdean, Rottingdean and Saltdean are all covered, along with the surrounding villages up on the Downs. Distance adds minutes, never a surcharge.
Is there a call-out charge at night or on a Sunday? +
The price is the same whatever the hour. No night rate, no weekend surcharge and no bank holiday premium. You hear the figure before we set off and it does not change when we arrive.
Why does my board trip whenever it rains? +
Nine times out of ten in this city it is water reaching an outside socket, a light fitting or a meter box that salt has already corroded. It looks perfectly normal from the front, which is why resetting the board simply postpones it.
My flat is in a converted house. Can a neighbour’s fault affect me? +
Yes, and it is common here. Conversions often share lighting, stair or outside circuits between flats, so a fault in one home trips another. We trace what genuinely feeds what before starting any repair.
Do you work with landlords and student lets? +
Constantly. Brighton has a large rental and student market, and we attend for landlords and agents across the city, issuing EICRs and certificates digitally the same day where the installation allows.
