# Emergency call-out & make safe in Sutton

> A make safe visit in Sutton isolates the board that feeds the fault and notes who else on a shared supply loses power. · 5.0 Star from 39 reviews

TMB Electrics, based in Banstead, makes a Sutton circuit safe by isolating the board that feeds it. On a shared supply, who else loses power is written down.


## Sutton make safe price

The Sutton visit covers the isolation and a note of what still has power, including where a shop and a flat on Cheam Road share a supply. Replacing stages in a centre semi, or adding sockets in West Sutton, waits until the cause is clear. Hardware used to leave the circuit safe is added only if it is fitted.
- Emergency electrician: from £80 an hour; from £80 an hour
- The five year inspection for a rented home is not done on this call.
- A board that stayed on is not charged as though it had been changed.
- The repair that follows is priced once the cause is clear.

## What happens on the day

The Sutton visit switches off the unsafe circuit and leaves other circuits on only when that is true. Flats above Cheam Road and High Street shops share a supply, so switching off the shop can take the flat with it, and that result is written down. A semi near the centre is not stripped of every stage on the same visit. The lasting repair is a follow up, written once the cause is clear.

### Say who else is affected

On a Cheam Road shared supply the note says whether the flat, the shop, or both, lost power. Isolation is not described as if the two were separate when they are not.

### Do not start a full rewire

A centre semi that was rewired in stages is made safe at the stage that failed. The other stages are not stripped out on this visit. A rewire, if it is needed, is the follow up.

### Write the follow up

What was switched off in West Sutton or elsewhere, and the next step, is written before we leave. New cable waits unless it was already on the plan.

## Sutton make safe questions


### If you isolate a Cheam Road shop, does the flat go off?

It might, because those flats and shops are on shared supplies. The visit writes down what actually went off. It does not promise the flat stays on.

### Will you rewire every stage of a centre semi that day?

No. The failed stage is isolated. The stages that are still sound stay in service. A rewire is a follow up if the tests say it is needed.

### Is a West Sutton socket shortage a make safe?

No. Wanting more sockets than a 1930s house was built with is not an emergency. This visit is an unsafe circuit.

### What is written down?

The note names the board that was switched off, what still has power, and the repair that follows. On a shared supply it includes the flat or the shop that was affected. This is not the landlord inspection.

### Is this fault finding?

No. Finding the cause, so it can be repaired, is a different visit. This one removes the danger and leaves that cause for the follow up.
