Electrical fault finding and repair services from TMB Electrics

Electrical Fault Finding & Repair in Reigate

Is an RCD tripping or has part of your Reigate property lost power? TMB Electrics isolates and tests circuits in stages to identify the fault. Trevor traces problems across RH2 homes, including damp cellar wiring, long garden supplies and outdoor equipment affected by water or concealed damage.

I keep things straightforward: you deal with me from the first quote to the final check, with clear advice and no surprises along the way.

How much does fault finding cost in Reigate?

Fault finding and repair in Reigate starts from £80/hr. That starting price buys time on site to trace the failed circuit and carry out the repair that follows.

  • The £80/hr figure is a starting price, not a fixed cost for every fault.
  • A minor works certificate starts from £80 when the repair needs that document.

Full electrical fault finding and repair details

Electrical fault finding and repair in Reigate

  • Electrical fault finding and repair in Reigate is TMB Electrics tracing a tripped circuit, dead socket or failing lights in a home or business, then repairing the failed part.
  • Fault finding follows the circuit until the failed part is found and repaired, then tested.
  • A 1920s or 1930s fuse board that keeps tripping may need a consumer unit replacement instead of a single repair.
  • Victorian terraces on Doods Road and Somers Road with many extensions on original circuits may need a rewire rather than one repair.

Old circuits and fuse boards in Reigate

  • Old circuits and fuse boards in Reigate sit under later extensions, so fault finding follows original cable as well as later work.
  • On conservation streets around Bell Street, West Street and London Road, external cable is planned with you before work starts.
  • Doods Road and Somers Road terraces were extended on the original circuits, so a fault can sit in later work on old cable.
  • 1920s and 1930s houses on former Reigate Priory estate land are at board replacement age, so a trip may start at the consumer unit.

What happens on the day

The visit starts at the failed circuit, traces the fault, then repairs and tests it before any certificate is issued.

    TMB Electrics arrives, hears what failed, and starts at the board and the circuit that tripped or died.

    Tracing and the repair

    The circuit is tested along its run until the failed part is found, then that part is repaired or made safe.

  3. 03

How do I book fault finding in Reigate?+

Book Online. The booking line answers at any time. TMB Electrics then fits the visit around the home or the business premises.

What happens after I book?+

After you book, TMB Electrics fits the visit around the home or premises. On the day the failed circuit is traced, repaired or made safe, then tested. You are told what failed and whether the consumer unit or further circuits need work.

Do you cover Doods Road, Woodhatch and Meadvale?+

Yes, TMB Electrics covers Doods Road, Woodhatch, Meadvale, Bell Street, West Street, London Road, Wray Park and South Park for this work. The same fault finding applies across the rest of Reigate.

When do I need a rewire instead of a repair?+

Victorian terraces on Doods Road and Somers Road have been extended many times on the original circuits, so one repair may not last. House rewiring is the work when those original circuits still feed the later extensions. Fault finding still finds the failed part first.

Will I get a certificate after a repair in Reigate?+

Testing is completed on the repair. A minor works certificate starts from £80 if you need a written record of that work. An EICR is a separate electrical installation condition report if you need a full inspection of the property.

Is fault finding the same as an emergency call out?+

No. Emergency call out and make safe is a separate service from £80/hr for when the supply has to be made safe, while fault finding and repair is also from £80/hr to trace the failed circuit and fix it. Book Online for either.
