Emergency electrician call-outs in Ardwick
- 01
Water leaking onto electrics
A leak from a flat above, a burst pipe or a bath overflowing can send water into light fittings and sockets. Switch off the electrics at the consumer unit if you can reach it without touching anything wet. Don't use lights in the affected room until they've been checked.

Burning smell from the consumer unit
A hot or burning smell from the consumer unit often means a loose or overheating connection. Don't open the cover. Switch off at the main switch if it's safe, keep the cupboard door open for air and call an emergency electrician straight away.

Faults in flats and apartments
Many Ardwick homes are flats, where some wiring belongs to the building rather than the flat. We check whether the fault is inside your flat or in a shared supply. If it's in a communal area, we make your flat safe and explain who to contact next.

Emergency electrician in Ardwick: common questions
Water is dripping through my light fitting in Ardwick. Is it dangerous?
Yes. Water and electricity together can cause shocks and fires. Don't touch the switch or fitting. Turn off the lighting circuit, or the whole supply, at the consumer unit if you can reach it safely, then call us. We'll make it safe and check the circuit once the leak has stopped.
Only my Ardwick flat has lost power. Can you help?
Yes. If only your flat has lost power, the fault is likely in your own consumer unit, meter tails or wiring. Check whether a switch has tripped first. If you can't get power back, call us and we'll come out to trace and fix the fault.
Do you charge more for emergency call-outs in Ardwick?
There's no call-out charge for emergencies in Ardwick, at any time of day. The bill covers making the fault safe plus any repair you've approved. We explain the cost before starting work beyond making the property safe, so you're never caught out.
My landlord isn't answering. Can I call you for an Ardwick emergency?
Yes. If there's a dangerous fault and you can't reach your landlord or agent, call us and we'll make it safe. Keep a record of when you tried to contact them. We can provide a report of what we found for your landlord afterwards.
