Fault finding questions, answered

How much does fault finding cost?

Most fault-finding visits around Livingston cost between £120 and £350. That covers finding the fault and fixing most simple ones. If a bigger repair is needed, you get a fixed price before we do it.

Why does my fuse box keep tripping?

Most often it is a faulty appliance, damp in an outside light or a damaged cable. We test circuit by circuit to find which one, rather than guess.

Half my sockets have stopped working. Is that serious?

It is usually a loose or broken joint on one circuit and it can be fixed. Loose joints get hot, so don't leave it. We can normally find and fix it in one visit.
