Need help urgently?
Call for availability
Tell us your postcode, work required and access arrangements. Sending a form does not book attendance.

For safely accessible faults that can be resolved on the first visit. Parts, materials and further work are quoted separately for your approval. If a first-visit fix isn’t possible, the agreed visit charge still covers the call-out and assessment. We explain the fault and quote any parts, further investigation or larger repair for your approval.

A switch fault may involve the control, fitting or wiring. Tell us whether it is a standard switch, dimmer or smart control. We arrange checks and compatible repairs rather than assuming a different faceplate will solve the problem.

The work, explained

What the visit can include

  • Assess the affected switching arrangement.
  • Check compatibility with lamps, drivers and controls where relevant.
  • Complete agreed replacement and operation checks.

Electrical work is matched to the appropriate competence. Testing, certification and any building-control notification depend on the work; these are set out in the quotation. A repair visit is not an EICR or a full rewire.

Help us plan your visit

What to include in your enquiry

  • State how many switches operate the affected light.
  • Share the switch and light-fitting model where known.
  • Mention recent lamp, dimmer or smart-control changes.

Example work, explained

Investigating a faulty socket

The problem
A socket is unreliable, damaged or no longer supplies power. The fault can be at the fitting or elsewhere on the circuit.
The work involved
The electrician investigates the fault, safely isolates as required and repairs the connection or replaces a suitable fitting where appropriate. Circuit defects are explained before extra work.
Checks and next steps
Carry out the electrical checks appropriate to the work and explain the findings and any further action needed before the affected installation returns to use.

Questions about electricians & electrical repairs

Why does the light flicker after changing a dimmer?

Compatibility between the dimmer, lamp and driver is one possible cause, but wiring or fitting faults can also be involved. Include all known product details so the electrician can assess the system together.

Will I receive an electrical certificate?

The electrician determines the testing, certification and any notification required for the agreed work. Ask for the required documents to be included in your written scope. A small repair does not automatically include a whole-property inspection report.

How much does light-switch repair & replacement cost?

From £85 including VAT for call-out, assessment and labour to fix a small, safely accessible fault on the first visit where possible. We’ll give you the full visit price when you book.
