emergencies we handle
⚡Power outages & electrical failures
Total loss of power with no street-wide outage? It could be a tripped main switch, a blown service fuse, or a fault on your incoming supply. Read our no-power checklist for what's safe to check — then call us if it doesn't come back.
⚡Fuseboard & circuit breaker faults
A consumer unit that trips the moment you reset it usually points to a faulty appliance or wiring fault. See our fuse box tripping guide — but don't keep resetting if it won't stay on.
⚡Flickering lights & lighting failures
Flicker can mean a loose connection, failing dimmer, or overloaded circuit — common in older Blackpool terraces. Our flickering lights guide explains the usual causes.
⚡Socket & switch failures
Crackling sockets, warm faceplates, or outlets that have stopped working need checking before they become a fire risk. Exposed or damaged cables should be treated as urgent.
⚡Burning smells or scorched outlets
A hot plastic smell from a socket or switch is an emergency — switch off at the consumer unit if safe and call straight away. What to do about a burning smell explains the immediate steps.
⚡Tripping RCDs that won't reset
An RCD that won't hold after isolating appliances may indicate water ingress, a failing device, or an old fuse box that's past its safe life. We carry replacement parts on the van for most Blackpool callouts.
emergency FAQ

How fast can an emergency electrician reach Blackpool?
Our service-area operating base is on Newhouse Road in Blackpool, so we aim to reach most FY1–FY4 callouts within 60 minutes and provide same-night attendance for late-night emergencies across the Fylde Coast, subject to availability.
What counts as an electrical emergency?
Total power loss with no obvious cause, burning smells or scorched outlets, exposed live cables, sparking fittings, a consumer unit that won't reset, or any fault where you feel unsafe. If in doubt, call — we'd rather talk you through it than leave you guessing.
Do you cover the Fylde Coast out of hours?
Yes. Our late-night line covers Blackpool, Poulton-le-Fylde, Lytham St Annes, Cleveleys, Fleetwood, Bispham, Thornton, Marton and Layton — evenings and weekends when most firms are closed.
What should I do before you arrive?
If it's safe, switch off the main switch at the consumer unit and unplug affected appliances. Don't touch exposed wires or use water near electrical faults. See our guide on safely isolating power at the fuse box for step-by-step advice. How to turn off power at the fuse box.
How much does an emergency callout cost?
We quote upfront before work starts — no hidden call-out fees or surprise charges. Emergency rates and typical repair costs are listed on our pricing page so you know what to expect before we arrive. View pricing.
