What counts as an electrical emergency?

If any of the situations below sound familiar, don't wait — call us. We'll tell you what to do (and what not to do) while we're on our way.

Complete power loss

Your consumer unit has tripped and you cannot restore power safely yourself.

Burning smell from sockets or wiring

This is a fire risk and must be treated as an emergency.

Sparking from a socket, switch, or appliance outlet

Do not use the socket; call immediately.

Exposed or damaged wiring

Especially in properties with children or pets.

Repeated circuit breaker trips

If a circuit trips more than twice, stop resetting it and call us.

Electrical shock

If anyone has received an electric shock, leave the area and call 999 first, then us.

Flood damage to electrics

Water and electricity are dangerous. Do not restore power. Call us first.

No hot water or heating due to electrical fault

Common in winter; we cover this 24/7.

"Dan arrived within an hour of my call at 11pm when our consumer unit completely failed. He was calm, professional, and had power restored within two hours. I cannot recommend DM Electrotechnical enough — absolute lifesavers."

Frequently Asked Questions

How quickly can you respond to an emergency in London?

For central and south London, our typical response time is 45–90 minutes depending on current demand and traffic. For Kent areas including Swanley, Dartford, and Sevenoaks, we are typically on site within 30–60 minutes. We will give you an honest estimated arrival time when you call.

Do you charge a call-out fee for emergency visits?

No. DM Electrotechnical Services Ltd does not charge a call-out fee. You pay for the work carried out — labour, parts, and any certification required. We provide a clear quote before starting any work.

Is it safe to wait for an electrician or should I call 999?

If there is visible fire, a person has been electrocuted, or water has entered electrical systems, call 999 immediately. For faults without immediate danger — such as power loss, repeated trips, or damaged sockets — it is safe to wait for us. We will advise you on exactly what to do (and not do) while we travel.

Do you cover weekends and bank holidays?

Yes. Our emergency service operates 24 hours a day, 365 days a year — including Christmas Day, New Year's Day, and all bank holidays. The same rates apply regardless of when you call.

Do you fix the problem on the same visit?

In the vast majority of cases, yes. Our emergency vans carry a comprehensive stock of the most commonly needed parts — consumer units, MCBs, RCDs, cable, sockets, and switches. If a specialist part is needed, we make the installation safe and return as a priority within 24 hours.
