Emergency Electrical Callouts
Behind The Job

What Happens When You Call an Electrical Emergency In

The first thing we do on the phone is work out whether it's genuinely urgent or can safely wait for a scheduled visit — total power loss, burning smells, and sparking get prioritised for same-day response, while a single dead socket with no other symptoms usually doesn't need an emergency rate.

On arrival, diagnosis comes first, using the same systematic approach as any fault-finding job, just faster. Most emergency callouts are resolved on the same visit; where a fault turns out to need parts or a bigger repair, we'll make the property safe first and explain clearly what happens next.

FAQs

Common Questions About Emergency Electrical Callouts

Is the call-out charge on top of the repair cost?
The call-out charge covers the visit and diagnosis; any repair work beyond that is quoted separately and agreed with you before we proceed.
What if it turns out not to be an emergency after all?
That's fine — we'd rather you call and it be minor than leave a genuine risk unchecked. We'll always tell you honestly what we find.
What counts as an electrical emergency?
Total loss of power with no clear cause, any burning smell or visible sparking, exposed live wiring, or a circuit that won't reset after multiple attempts — if in doubt, call us and describe what's happening.
What's your call-out charge?
It's a fixed charge agreed with you before we head out, so there's no surprise on arrival — any further work beyond diagnosis is quoted separately.
How fast can you actually get here?
We aim for same-day response on genuine emergencies across Glasgow and the surrounding areas — call rather than email for anything urgent.
Should I turn my main power off before you arrive?
Only if it's safe to access the consumer unit and you know how — if in doubt, leave it and we'll assess it safely on arrival.
Do you handle emergencies for businesses as well as homes?
Yes, including commercial premises losing power during trading hours, where getting back up and running quickly matters.
