Right-hand switch on 2-switch light switch causes circuit breaker to trip when operated. I've replaced switch plate with new unit and rewired identically - same problem occurs. Need expert to fix.
At same time, replace and rewire kitchen light unit over sink.
Mr Cowell arrived on time. Pleasant and trustworthy. The job turned out to require far more work than could have been foreseen - he did all the rewiring work without any drama then sorted the originally-requested light switch and fitting. Very reasonable charge, I thought, and gave him c.10% tip. Excellent all round, and I wouldn't hesitate to use him again, and recommend.Matthew

I need an electrician for our tenant's flat in Chelmsford. We understand that the night time booster on the immersion water heater is not working, but the day time is OK. The tenant has given up some numbers which are placed on the top, which say "type 311, 3.0kw, 240volts. Thank you.
Stan Suchy was very prompt, and gave excellent service, explaining clearly what had caused the problem and was able to repair fault immediately. Very helpful, would definitely use Stan again. Thank you.Maria
I need an electrician to check the electrical system of a house I am potentially going to buy. The house was built in the mid to early 1980s and I doubt has had an electrical inspection since then.
Friendly and helpful. Ben

On the day of our appointment I was called to be advised when he would arrive, he was easy to talk to and carried out the works to my satisfaction. I will definitely use this company again. Linda

I'm not sure
I need three or four lights fitting outside, three in the garden/drive area and one near the front door, with switches inside and sensors on the ones in the garden/drive that don't go off when a car goes by.

3/4 rooms where switches do not work + an outside light that stays on
Chelmer Village and Beaulieu Park, CM2
I'm not sure
3 rooms, with various sockets (lighting and mains) that need to be checked. Ever since I moved here 4 years ago, the living room light has been a bain of my life here. It has two switches (one a dimmer, one with an on/off flick switch) on two sides of the room. But one does not override the other - ie: I turn the light on from one side of the room, but I cannot turn it off with from the other, I have to turn it off using the SAME switch I turned it on with. I have a socket behind my fridge which has been taped up since I moved here...so I'd like this to be checked out. My washing machine socket has stopped working - I believe it may just be a fuse. The flat was built with storage heaters. These were removed before I moved here, and the switches/sockets have been left where they were. One actually has a suspicious black burnt looking mark down one side, so I'd like this to be looked at, and if they are both ok, I want one (or both of them) wired up to a new radiator I am planning to buy. Very bad...but the bathroom also has an open mains socket...not me...it was here when I moved in. (are you getting the sense that the guy who lived here before was a bodgeup!?). Anyway, I'd like this to be sorted out, and wired up to a new radiator I am planning to buy. Please can somebody come and have a look, and give me a quote for getting the work done. Thanks!
