Electrical Repairs

Electrical Repairs is one of the jobs our teams are called out for most often across Gauteng. Over 15 years we have refined the process down to something predictable: an honest assessment, a written price before anyone picks up a tool, and a technician who leaves the site cleaner than they found it.

Electrical faults rarely fix themselves and they get more dangerous the longer they are left. Repeated tripping, warm switches, flickering lights, a burning smell or plug points that have stopped working all point to a fault that needs tracing.

We use insulation resistance testers, clamp meters and thermal imaging to locate faults quickly rather than opening walls speculatively. Once located, we repair to standard and re-test the circuit before restoring supply.

Why electrical repairs matters

Safety is the part clients rarely see. Correct cable sizing, protection, earthing and mounting on electrical repairs is what keeps a small fault a small fault. It is also the difference between compliant work and work that will fail an inspection at the worst possible moment.

What’s included

Earth leakage and tripping breaker diagnosis
Dead circuit and no-power fault tracing
Thermal imaging on boards and connections
Damaged cable, socket and switch replacement
Emergency after-hours response

Warning signs we look for on electrical repairs

Earth leakage tripping and needing to be reset regularly
No valid Certificate of Compliance for the property
Warm, discoloured or buzzing switches, sockets or DB board
Sockets that only work intermittently or feel loose
Breakers tripping repeatedly or without an obvious cause
A burning smell near the board, a plug point or a light fitting

How we handle electrical repairs

1. Free assessment and written quote

We attend site, inspect what is actually there, and quote electrical repairs in writing with the parts, labour and any compliance work itemised. No deposit is required to get a price.

2. Scheduling that suits you

Once you approve the quote we book a slot — including after-hours and weekend work where a business cannot afford downtime — and confirm the arrival window by phone or WhatsApp the day before.

3. The work itself

A qualified technician carries out the electrical repairs to SANS standards using correctly rated materials. Drop sheets go down, the area is protected, and anything unexpected is raised with you before extra cost is incurred.

4. Testing, handover and paperwork

We test the completed work under load, walk you through what was done, and issue your invoice, warranty details and — where the job requires it — a Certificate of Compliance.

What affects the price of electrical repairs

Anyone quoting electrical repairs sight-unseen is guessing. These are the factors that genuinely move the number on our quotations:

Cable length, routing and whether chasing into walls is required
Single-phase versus three-phase supply and the rating of the circuit
Condition of the existing DB board and whether an upgrade is needed
Quality and rating of the protective devices and fittings specified
Whether a Certificate of Compliance forms part of the scope
Access, working at height, and whether the site must stay live

Our guarantee

If something we installed fails within the guarantee period we come back and make it right — no argument, no callout fee.

Recent project

A family home in Erand Gardens needed electrical repairs handled properly after a poor previous experience. We assessed the site, quoted in writing, completed the work to SANS standards and handed over full documentation. Read the full Electrical Repairs for a family home in Erand Gardens case study.

Electrical Repairs FAQs

Why does my earth leakage keep tripping?

Usually moisture ingress, a failing appliance or a damaged cable. We isolate circuit by circuit to identify the source and repair it.

How much does electrical repairs cost in Gauteng?

There is no single price — electrical repairs is quoted on scope. The assessment is free and the quotation is itemised, so you see the parts, the labour and any compliance work separately before you commit. Call 060 959 2231 and we will give you a realistic range over the phone, then confirm it on site.

How quickly can you attend?

We aim for same-day or next-day attendance across Gauteng for electrical repairs, and we run emergency call-outs after hours, over weekends and on public holidays. Booked installations are usually scheduled within a few working days.

Are your technicians qualified and insured?

Yes. Our teams are qualified, insured and, on the electrical side, registered to issue Certificates of Compliance. We only fit components we are prepared to stand behind, which is why our return-to-site rate stays in the low single digits.

Do you cover my area?

We cover the whole of Gauteng — Johannesburg, Pretoria, Centurion, Midrand, the East Rand, the West Rand and the Vaal — including estates and complexes where access has to be arranged with the HOA in advance.
