What Chester Customers Say
Recent callouts, in their own words.
“Whole house lost power late at night. He was with us within half an hour, found a failed connection in the kitchen and had us back on quickly.”
“Timber-framed building in the centre. They checked the whole cable route rather than only the fitting, and explained exactly what needed doing.”
“After the river came up our board was never right. They tested everything that had been under water and made it safe properly.”
“Our board had been tripping for weeks. They tested each circuit properly and traced it to the stable block supply, not the house at all.”
“Burning smell from a socket on a Sunday evening. Told me what to isolate while driving over, then replaced the back box and tested the ring.”
“Shop lost power an hour before opening. Someone arrived in twenty-five minutes and we traded on time. Invoice matched the quote exactly.”
Timber Frames, a River That Rises and Cheshire Country Homes
Chester puts medieval timber buildings inside its walls, sits on a river that floods, and is surrounded by large Cheshire properties with outbuildings everywhere.
Inside the walls, timber frames and listed status decide where a cable can physically run, and old wiring close to old timber is a genuine fire risk rather than a theoretical one. Along the Dee at Handbridge and the lower streets, flood water has reached boards more than once, and anything submerged needs testing before it goes back into service. Out at Christleton, Tattenhall, Waverton and Farndon the properties are generous, with the fault usually sitting at the end of a long supply to a garage, stable block or annexe rather than in the house itself.

Questions From Chester Callers
If what you are seeing is not here, phone and ask. It costs nothing to check.
Call 01244739019How quickly can you reach me in Chester? +
Usually within twenty-five to thirty-five minutes in and around the city, including Hoole, Handbridge, Upton and Blacon. Villages out towards Tattenhall, Malpas or Frodsham add a little, and we give you a realistic window on the call.
Do you cover the Cheshire villages and the Wirral edge? +
Yes. Christleton, Tarvin, Tattenhall, Waverton, Mollington, Farndon, Ellesmere Port, Neston, Frodsham and Malpas 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 much of our work inside the walls is exactly that. Old wiring close to old timber is a real fire risk, so we check the route a cable takes rather than only the fitting at the end of it, and we will say plainly if a job needs consent first.
We were flooded. Is it safe to use the electrics? +
Not until they have been checked. Anything that has been under water needs testing before it goes back into service, including sockets, the board and any cable that was submerged. Call and we will tell you what to isolate while we are on the way.
Something outside keeps tripping the whole house. What causes that? +
Almost always a supply running away from the building: a garage, stable block, annexe or garden room. Many were run years ago without proper protection, so heavy rain eventually finds them. We test the run end to end.
