How much does fault finding cost in Epsom?
Fault finding and repair in Epsom starts from £80/hr. That starting price buys the time on site to locate the fault and to carry out the repair that hour covers.
- The £80/hr figure is a starting price, not a cap, because a fault in older cables or across more than one circuit takes more than an hour.
- Parts, extra circuits and a minor works certificate from £80 are quoted in writing before they are added, and make safe work is also from £80/hr if the circuit has to be isolated first.
Electrical fault finding in Epsom
- A tripping board, dead socket or flickering light in Epsom is traced and repaired by TMB Electrics from £80/hr.
- A lighting or power circuit that trips when the shower or kettle runs is traced from the fuse board outward.
- A fitting that has gone dead is tested at the point, then back along the circuit to the consumer unit.
- Heat or discolouration at a socket, switch or fuse board is treated as a live fault until it is made safe.
Fault finding in older Epsom houses
- Georgian frontages near the High Street, bay fronted Victorian houses and interwar semis still on original fuse boards all change how a fault is traced in Epsom.
- External work on Georgian and spa era buildings near the High Street is planned around the frontage so the face of the building is left as it was while the fault is traced inside.
- Victorian and Edwardian bay fronted houses along Burgh Heath Road, College Road and Worple Road mean a dead socket or light is traced through those original rooms and walls.
- Render and pebbledash semis towards Woodcote, Stamford Green and Langley Vale still on an original style of fuse board are checked at that board first when a circuit trips or goes dead.

Tracing the fault and repairing it

How much does electrical fault finding cost in Epsom?+

— Trevor Bush
Do you repair electrical faults in Epsom?+
Yes. TMB Electrics traces and repairs electrical faults in Epsom for homeowners, landlords and businesses. The work is planned around the property and finished with the testing and documentation it requires.
— Trevor Bush
Is the repair finished on the first visit?+
The failed point is repaired on the visit when the part is available and the cables can be reached. If more time or a board change is needed, the circuit is made safe and you get a written price for the next step. A consumer unit replacement starts from £375.
What happens if my fuse board keeps tripping?+
A tripping board is tested circuit by circuit to find the overload, short or failed appliance. On interwar semis still on an original style of fuse board, that board is checked first. You then get the repair, or a written price if the board itself needs replacing from £375.
Do I get a certificate after a repair in Epsom?+
You get the documentation the work requires. Like for like repairs may need a minor works certificate from £80. Work that is notifiable is carried out under TMB Electrics Part P certification.
Can you trace a fault in an older Epsom house?+
Yes. A newer board on older cables is inspected as two separate things so a fault in the cables is not blamed on the board. Victorian and Edwardian houses on Burgh Heath Road, College Road and Worple Road are traced through the original rooms and bays.
How do I book electrical fault finding in Epsom?+
Book Online with the Epsom address and what has failed. The booking line answers at any time. The visit time is the one you book, not an attendance at every hour.
Do you do fault finding for shops as well as homes in Epsom?+
Yes. A home or rented house gets a careful trace through occupied rooms and a documented repair. A shop or office gets the fault found with the premises in mind so the circuit can be handed back to use. Both are charged from £80/hr.
