A person answers, not a machine taking a message for the morning. For an emergency anywhere in London we are usually with you inside the hour.
No call-out fee
No separate charge on top of the hourly rate just for turning up, and nothing to pay before we arrive. Work is charged by the hour, with a rough estimate before we start.
Burning smell right now?
Turn that circuit off at the board, leave it off, and ring. Do not keep resetting a breaker that will not stay in — it is doing its job.
07502 396654What we get called to in Highgate
Terraces here have usually been rewired once already — and that rewire is now old enough to be the problem in its own right.
Rewires
A house rewired in the sixties or seventies is on wiring that is now fifty years old. In a period property the chasing and the routes are as much of the job as the cable, which is why it wants planning rather than improvising.

Consumer unit upgrades
Boards of this age have usually been added to over the years — a spare way here, a spur there — until nobody is certain what feeds what. Testing everything back to the board is how that gets sorted.
More on this
Lighting circuits
Older lighting circuits frequently have no earth at the switch, which rules out most metal fittings until the circuit is brought up to date.

Loft and extension circuits
A loft conversion or a side return adds load to a circuit that was sized before either existed. The board is normally where that shows up first.

- Fault finding & repairsA breaker that keeps tripping, half the house dead, lights flickering. We trace the actual cause rather than guessing at it.
- Fuse board & consumer unit upgradesReplace an old rewireable or plastic board with a modern RCBO unit that cuts the power the instant something goes wrong.
- Full & partial rewiresRubber or fabric-sheathed cable, too few sockets, no earth on the lighting circuit — a rewire brings the whole installation up to standard.

The housing in Highgate
Highgate runs from Georgian houses around the village down to Victorian and Edwardian streets below it, with a high proportion either listed or in a conservation area. Listing changes how the work is done rather than whether it can be done at all — chasing is frequently ruled out, and surface containment becomes the honest answer.
None of that is a reason to ring us. It is the reason we already know what we are likely to find when we get there.
What people say
Had a breaker that kept tripping the sockets in the whole house over the weekend, called Sunday morning and was here within the hour! … Instead of staying and doing the work under emergency rate the electrician kindly fixed me a temporary solution for the night and said he will come the next day where it will be cheaper to fix the problem. Not a lot of trade people will do that! … Only fixed what needed to be fixed and didn’t try to sell me anything extra, honest and straight forward and punctual.
Kuresh A. — Tripping breaker, Sunday callout Mizan is very professional. He arrived at the time he said and called me 30 minutes before arrival. He done the works very well and cleaned up after himself. Very satisfied and I will use him again.
