Faults we're called about
- Safety switch tripping after rain or overnight
- Lights flickering or going dim
- A group of power points that have stopped working
- Pool or spa equipment tripping
- Granny flat or shed losing power
- Appliances blowing breakers
Our approach
We isolate each circuit at the switchboard, insulation-test the wiring and test the appliances. That way we find the fault without guesswork, and you don't pay for parts that don't fix the problem.
In Shire homes, the usual causes are water in outdoor lights and garden power points, ageing pool equipment, underground cables to sheds and granny flats that have been damaged by tree roots or digging, and DIY wiring from past additions.
Fixing it
Once we find it, we explain the problem in plain terms and quote the repair. Most repairs are done the same visit.
Fault Finding and Repairs FAQs
Why does my power trip overnight when nothing is running?
Something is still on: a fridge, freezer, pool pump on a timer, or moisture building up in an outdoor fitting as the temperature drops. We'll track it down.
Can tree roots damage underground cables?
Yes, especially older cables that weren't laid in conduit. That's a common cause of power faults to sheds and granny flats.
Can you test my pool equipment?
Yes. We'll test the pump, chlorinator and heater circuits and tell you which one is faulty.
