What Torquay Customers Say
Recent callouts, in their own words.
“Whole flat went dark just before midnight. He was with us in half an hour, found a burnt connection in the hallway and had the power back quickly.”
“The board tripped every time it rained and two others had simply reset it. These traced it to a corroded outside socket within the hour.”
“Guest house lost power the night before a full changeover. They were here fast, found the fault and we took the booking as planned.”
“Converted villa with five flats sharing circuits nobody understood. They worked out what fed what and sorted the landing supply properly.”
“Holiday flat that had stood empty since October greeted us with a dead board. Sorted before the guests arrived and photos sent through.”
“Cafe lost power an hour before opening. Someone arrived in twenty-five minutes and we served on time. Invoice matched the quote exactly.”
Victorian Villas, Guest Houses and Salt in Every Terminal
Torbay was built as a resort of large villas and guest houses, and most of those buildings now hold several homes, several lets, or paying guests all summer.
Through Torre, Ellacombe and the streets behind the seafront, villas were divided into flats decades ago with lighting, stair and outside circuits shared in ways nobody recorded, so a fault in one home trips the next. Guest houses and holiday lets carry heavy seasonal use followed by months of standing empty, which is its own kind of punishment on a board. And the sea works constantly on outdoor terminals, so a socket that looks spotless from the front is often corroded behind the faceplate.

Questions From Torquay Callers
If what you are seeing is not here, phone and ask. It costs nothing to check.
Call 01803300405How quickly can you reach me in Torquay? +
Usually within twenty-five to thirty-five minutes anywhere in the town, including Babbacombe, Chelston, Torre and St Marychurch. Paignton, Brixham and the outer villages add a little, and summer traffic can stretch it, which we tell you honestly on the call.
Do you cover Paignton and Brixham too? +
Yes, along with Preston, Goodrington, Churston, Galmpton, Kingskerswell and out towards Newton Abbot. 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? +
On this coast it is nearly always moisture reaching an outside socket, light fitting or meter box that salt air has already corroded. It looks perfectly sound from the front, which is why resetting the board only postpones it.
Can you attend a guest house or hotel in season? +
Yes, and quickly. We know what a dead board means the night before a changeover, and we can work around guests or attend early morning so your rooms are not affected.
Can you look after a holiday let while I am away? +
Yes. We attend for owners and letting agents, can work while the property is empty, and send photos and certificates digitally the same day so you do not need to travel down.
