Who needs an emergency electrical call out
You need an emergency electrician when a circuit, fitting or board is live, smoking, sparking or leaving the property without safe power.
- A board that will not resetThe consumer unit trips again as soon as you restore power, or a breaker will not stay on.
- Burning smell or scorch marksA socket, switch, light or appliance smells of burning or shows heat damage around the fitting.
- No power after a faultPart or all of the house is dead after a bang, a flood, or a failed appliance, and you cannot restore it safely.
- A rented home or workplaceA tenant, staff member or visitor is without light or power, and the installation must be made safe before anyone uses it.
What happens on the day
The visit starts at the property, isolates the danger, and finishes with you knowing which circuits can stay on.
- Arrival and isolationThe supply or the affected circuit is tested and switched off so nobody is left with a live fault.
- Make safe on siteThe dangerous fitting is disconnected or capped, and remaining circuits are restored only if they are safe to use.
- What you are left withYou are told what was isolated and what still needs a separate repair.

WhatsAppHow much does an emergency electrician cost?
Emergency call-out and make safe from TMB Electrics starts from £80/hr. That rate is the hourly labour for attendance and make-safe, not a fixed job price. A later repair, parts or a new board is priced as its own service once the property is safe.
Will you put the power back on?
Only circuits that are safe to use are restored. The faulty circuit stays isolated until it is repaired or replaced. A full repair is a separate job if the make-safe is not enough on its own.
Do you attend electrical emergencies at night?
The booking line answers at any time so the call-out can be arranged then. That is not a promise that an electrician is on site at every hour. The visit time is set when you book emergency call-out and make safe.
Is make safe the same as a repair?
No. Make-safe isolates the danger so the property can be used. Repair, a consumer unit change or a rewire is extra work with its own starting price if it is needed afterwards.
Do I get a certificate on a call out?
Emergency call-out and make safe does not include a certificate. Minor works certification from TMB Electrics starts from £80 when the work needs that document. It is added only when the job requires it.
