Electrical fault finding and repair services from TMB Electrics

Electrical Fault Finding & Repair in Wallington

Are circuits tripping or electrical fittings failing in Wallington? TMB Electrics tests the installation methodically to locate the damaged cable, loose connection, accessory or appliance responsible. Trevor carries out fault finding across SM6, explaining what has been eliminated and what repair is needed once the cause is found.

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 Wallington?

Electrical fault finding and repair in Wallington starts from £80/hr, which pays for attendance, testing and the time spent locating and correcting the fault.

  • That figure is a starting price, not a fixed total, because time on site depends on how far the fault sits through the installation.
  • A minor works certificate starts from £80 when the repair needs one, and further work such as a consumer unit replacement is priced separately from £375.

Electrical fault finding and repair in Wallington

  • When lights fail, a socket goes dead or a fuse board trips in a Wallington home, flat or premises, TMB Electrics does electrical fault finding and repair from £80/hr.
  • When a Wallington fuse board, also called a consumer unit, trips on a shower or kettle, we trace the circuit and repair it.
  • A dead socket or a light that will not come back on is isolated, tested and put back into use.
  • In a flat above the Woodcote Road shops a dead circuit can sit on a supply shared with the shop or other flats.

How Wallington houses affect fault finding

  • Victorian villas around Holy Trinity, flats above the Woodcote Road shops, 1930s semis and Roundshaw homes rebuilt from 1998 each change how a fault is traced through the property.
  • Around Holy Trinity those villas sit on long, much-extended installations, so a fault is traced through later additions rather than a short original wiring layout.
  • These flats have supplies shared with the shop or neighbouring units, so a trip in one flat can belong to the building supply and a landlord certificate that is due.
  • Those semis now carry extensions the original board was never sized for, so the visit tests whether the consumer unit can still carry the extra load.

What happens on the day

We arrive at the Wallington property, isolate the failed circuit, find the fault, repair it where we can and leave the certificate the work needs.

  1. 01

    Arrival at the property

    We meet you at the house, flat or premises, confirm which lights, sockets or circuits have failed, and make that part of the installation safe to test.

  2. 02

    Finding and repairing the fault

    The failed circuit is isolated, tested along the wiring through the property, and the connection, accessory or cable that has failed is repaired where that is possible.

  3. 03

    Handover and certificate

    You get a working circuit where the repair allows it, an explanation of what failed, and a minor works certificate from £80 when the repair needs one.

What if the fault needs more than a repair?

A consumer unit replacement starts from £375, house rewiring starts from £1,800, and an Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) starts from £150 if you need the condition of the whole installation in writing.

Why customers choose TMB Electrics

TMB Electrics gives a written price before the work, explains what it finds in the house, and completes the testing and documentation the job requires. For a shop or other Wallington premises the visit is planned around the building so rooms that are still safe can stay in use.

Trevor Bush

How much does fault finding cost in Wallington?+

Fault finding and repair starts from £80/hr. That starting price buys the visit and the time on the tester, not a set total for every house. A minor works certificate starts from £80 when the repair needs one.

Trevor Bush

How soon can I book a visit in Wallington?+

You can book online at any time because the booking line answers calls at any hour. That is the booking line, not a promise that an electrician is on the doorstep through the night. The visit is then planned around the Wallington property.

What happens after I book?+

We attend the Wallington house, flat or premises, confirm what has failed and isolate that circuit. The fault is then traced and repaired where the part and the installation allow. You get a clear account of what failed and the certificate if the repair needs one.

What if the fuse board trips after an extension?+

On Wallington's 1930s semis the original board was never sized for later extensions, so the visit tests the board as well as the failed circuit. If the board cannot carry the load, a consumer unit replacement starts from £375. The fault finding hour is still charged from £80/hr.

Do you cover Roundshaw, Hackbridge and Woodcote Road?+

Yes. TMB Electrics covers Woodcote Road, Wallington Green, Manor Road, Stanley Park Road, Bandonhill, Roundshaw, Beddington and Hackbridge. On Roundshaw homes rebuilt from 1998 we look at the charger or extra circuit first. Flats above the Woodcote Road shops are treated as buildings with a shared supply when a landlord certificate is due.

Do I get a certificate after the visit?+

You get the testing from the visit, and a minor works certificate from £80 when the repair needs one. An EICR is a different inspection, from £150 for domestic or commercial. If the repair does not need notifying to building control, you still get a plain explanation of what was found.

Can you find a fault in a Wallington shop or office?+

Yes. TMB Electrics does commercial electrical work as well as domestic, so a failed socket or lighting circuit in Wallington premises is traced and repaired from £80/hr. The visit is planned around the building so you can keep using the parts that are still safe. If you need the condition of the whole installation in writing, an EICR starts from £150.
