Emergency Electrician in Harrogate

Some electrical problems can wait for a convenient day. Others can’t. If part of the house has gone dead, the board won’t reset or you can smell burning, you need an electrician in Harrogate who picks up the phone and tells you straight what to do next.

We’ll talk you through making it safe, then get someone out to find the cause, not just flick the switch back on. Simple repairs are done there and then, and anything larger is priced before it starts, the same as any other job.

Ring us straight away if

• The power is off but the neighbours still have theirs
• A breaker or RCD trips back off as soon as you reset it
• There’s a burning or hot plastic smell near a socket, switch or the board
• A plug or socket is scorched, cracked or melted
• Water has reached a light, socket or the consumer unit
• A cable has been drilled, crushed or chewed

What happens when you call

1. Tell us what’s happening

   We ask what you can see and help you isolate the problem safely.

2. Someone comes out

   You get an honest time. Urgent faults go ahead of planned work.

3. Safe, then fixed

   The fault is isolated and traced, then repaired or made safe with a clear price for the rest.

Urgent faults in Harrogate homes

Many of Harrogate’s Victorian and Edwardian stone houses have cellars, and water finding its way into a cellar is a common reason for a sudden trip. Larger detached homes often run many more circuits than they were designed for, and an overloaded old board can fail without much warning.
