Village call outs, city standards
Call us24/7 Emergency Electricians
There is a particular skill to working on older village properties, and Ditchling has plenty of them. Thick flint walls, low beams, extensions added over generations and wiring that has evolved rather than been designed. Our engineers see homes like these every week and know how to fault find, upgrade and certify them without damaging what makes them special.

More About UsEmergency Call Outs
Picture it: the lights die halfway through dinner and the fuse box refuses to reset. One call to 0330 043 8384 and we are on it, whatever the hour. We will guide you through the safe first steps on the phone while an engineer heads for Ditchling.
View Our ServicesFault Finding & Electrical Repairs
Cottage electrics can be a maze, with circuits added piecemeal across decades. Rather than guessing, we test each leg of the installation until the culprit shows itself: a perished cable, a rodent chewed junction, a damp affected switch. Then we repair it properly and check nothing else is waiting to fail.
View Our ServicesFuse Board Upgrades
A surprising number of homes around Ditchling still have rewireable fuses and no RCD protection at all. Replacing that old board with a modern consumer unit is one of the most effective safety upgrades you can make, and we complete most changeovers within a day, certificate included.
View Our ServicesEICR Testing
An EICR on a period property should inform you, not frighten you. We inspect carefully, distinguish genuine dangers from quirks of age, and set out clearly what must be fixed, what should be monitored and what is perfectly fine as it is. No scare tactics, just facts.
View Our ServicesRewires
Rewiring a cottage is not the same as rewiring a new build. Cable routes need thought, original features deserve protection and the finish matters. We plan every rewire around the building, lift and relay flooring carefully, and hand back a home that looks untouched but is safe to its bones.

Response Times
Living outside the big towns should not mean second class emergency cover. Our 24/7 line treats a village call out with exactly the same urgency as a city one, because a live fault is dangerous wherever it happens. When you ring, we will assess the risk with you, tell you what to switch off, and send a Part P registered engineer equipped for the most common night time failures.
We set off from Eastbourne or Bexhill and aim to be with you in Ditchling within 30 to 90 minutes of your call. The same crews look after homes right across Sussex and over the border into Kent, so recommending us to friends elsewhere in the county is never wasted breath.
