About this service

There is nothing more unsettling than a burning smell, a buzzing switch, or a consumer unit that keeps tripping. As an experienced Electrician in Leeds, I know that electrical faults often happen at the worst times. Whether it's nuisance tripping in a modern apartment or degraded wiring issues common in the older terraces of Armley or Harehills, my priority is making your home safe again. At OR Electrics, I don't believe in guesswork. I use calibrated diagnostic equipment to trace the exact source of the fault, whether it's a dodgy appliance or a serious breakdown in the fixed wiring. I work strictly to 18th Edition (BS 7671) standards, meaning I won't just patch up a dangerous problem—I'll explain exactly what is wrong and how we fix it properly. If I find a major issue, like rodent damage under floorboards or insulation breakdown, I will give you a straight, honest assessment of the work required.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does my electricity keep tripping?

Tripping is your consumer unit (fuse box) protecting you. It usually means there's an earth leakage fault, a short circuit, or an overloaded circuit. It could be a faulty kettle, or it could be older wiring deteriorating. I carry out specific tests to pinpoint exactly which one it is.

How much does fault finding cost?

Since faults can range from a loose connection to a hidden cable break, I typically charge a set fee for the first hour of investigation. In many cases at OR Electrics, I can find and fix simple faults within that time. If it requires extensive repair, I provide a fixed quote before proceeding.

Is a fishy or burning smell dangerous?

Yes, absolutely. A 'fishy' smell is often the characteristic scent of overheating Bakelite or plastic components in your electrical accessories. If you smell this, or hear buzzing/crackling, turn off the power at the mains immediately and call a qualified Electrician.

Will you need to damage my walls to find the fault?

I always aim to be non-intrusive. Using advanced testers, I can usually locate faults by measuring resistance on the cables without lifting floors or chasing walls. However, in some Leeds properties with solid brick walls or buried cables, some access may be required, but I will always discuss this with you first.
