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. - Fault finding & repair: from £80/hr - 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. ## 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. ### Trips, dead sockets and failing lights Fault finding follows the circuit until the failed part is found and repaired, then tested. ### A fuse board that keeps tripping A 1920s or 1930s fuse board that keeps tripping may need a consumer unit replacement instead of a single repair. ### Victorian terraces still on original circuits Victorian terraces on Doods Road and Somers Road with many extensions on original circuits may need a rewire rather than one repair. ### EICR testing rather than a repair An EICR is an electrical installation condition report, a test and certificate; it does not repair a live fault. ### PAT testing for appliances PAT testing is portable appliance testing for plug in equipment; house wiring stays on the fault finding visit. ## 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. ### Town centre conservation streets On conservation streets around Bell Street, West Street and London Road, external cable is planned with you before work starts. ### Victorian terraces on Doods Road 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 Priory estate houses 1920s and 1930s houses on former Reigate Priory estate land are at board replacement age, so a trip may start at the consumer unit. ### Post war Rushetts Farm houses Post war Rushetts Farm houses were bought and extended piecemeal, so later circuits and joins have to be traced with the original install. ### Wray Park, South Park, Woodhatch and Meadvale Wray Park, South Park, Woodhatch and Meadvale are covered for the same tracing, from the board through any later extension to the failed fitting. ## 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. ### Arrival and the failed circuit 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. ### Testing and the certificate The repaired circuit is tested, the result is explained, and a minor works certificate is issued when the work needs one. ## Why customers choose TMB Electrics TMB Electrics gives a written price for tracing and repair, and explains the work as it is done. The job is planned around the property and finished with the testing and documents that repair needs. ## Finished jobs around Reigate This set shows completed electrical calls for households, landlords and commercial premises in Reigate, spanning Bell Street, West Street, London Road, Doods Road, Wray Park, South Park, Woodhatch and Meadvale. ## What does electrical fault finding involve in Reigate?

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. ## Electrical fault finding areas in Reigate TMB Electrics carries out electrical fault finding and repair in Reigate, including Bell Street, West Street, London Road, Doods Road, Wray Park, South Park, Woodhatch and Meadvale. ## Electrical services for homes, landlords and businesses in Reigate House rewiring, fuse board and consumer unit upgrades, EICR testing, EV charger installation, electric shower installation and PAT testing are also offered in Reigate by TMB Electrics. - [Electrician in Reigate](https://www.tmbelectrics.co.uk/electrician-reigate): Reigate electrician for rewiring, faults, reports and upgrades, with routes, access and the electrical scope agreed first. - [Electrical fault finding and repair (all areas)](https://www.tmbelectrics.co.uk/services/electrical-fault-finding): Electrical fault finding in Banstead and Surrey from £80 per hour.
