What Canterbury Customers Say
Recent callouts, in their own words.
“Whole flat went dark just before midnight. He was here within half an hour, traced it to a failed connection in the hallway and had the power back on well before one.”
“Our board kept tripping and nobody could say why. They tested every circuit properly and found a soaked outside light. Price was exactly what was quoted on the phone.”
“Grade II listed cottage and I was worried about the damage. They planned the cable route first, kept the work minimal and left no mess at all.”
“Landlord with student houses near the university. Fast to attend, EICRs emailed the same day, and the tenants said they were polite throughout.”
“Burning smell from a socket on a Sunday evening. They told me what to isolate while driving over and replaced the whole back box once here.”
“Cafe lost power an hour before opening. Someone arrived in twenty-five minutes and we served on time. The invoice matched the quote to the penny.”
Listed Buildings, Student Lets and Walls You Cannot Chase
Canterbury has more protected buildings per street than almost anywhere we work, and two universities filling the rest of them with tenants.
Inside the walls, timber frames and listed status decide where a cable can physically go, which is why so much of the wiring here runs in routes that make no sense until you see the building. Out in Hales Place, St Stephen’s and Wincheap, houses converted for students carry circuits divided room by room without the board ever being upgraded. Two very different problems, both solved faster by someone who already knows which one they are walking into.
- Listed and timber-framed property
- Student lets, landlords and agents
- City centre shops and hospitality
- Certificates issued the same day
Questions From Canterbury Callers
If what you are seeing is not here, phone and ask. It costs nothing to check.
Call 01227943011How quickly can you reach me in Canterbury? +
Usually within twenty-five to thirty-five minutes anywhere in the city, including Wincheap, Hales Place, Northgate and St Dunstan’s. Villages out towards Chartham, Barham or Petham add a little, and we give you a realistic window on the call.
Do you cover the villages around Canterbury? +
Yes. Sturry, Blean, Harbledown, Bridge, Littlebourne, Fordwich, Chestfield and the surrounding lanes are all covered. Rural 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.
Can you work on listed and timber-framed buildings? +
Yes, and a large share of our city centre work is exactly that. Listed status and timber frames limit where cable can run and how walls can be opened, so we plan the route before touching anything and will tell you plainly if a job needs consent first.
Do you work with student houses and HMOs? +
Constantly. Properties around the universities often have circuits split between rooms without the consumer unit being upgraded, which is why they trip under normal use. We can carry out landlord certification during the same visit.
Can you attend shops, cafes and pubs in the city? +
Yes, including out of hours at the same rate so your trading day is not lost. Three-phase supplies, refrigeration circuits and commercial boards across the city centre are all familiar ground.
