You get Straight Answers From a Qualified Electrician — Without the Call-Out Fee
FOCUSED ADVICE SESSION (15 mins)
Get answers about a specific electrical matter for up to 15 minutes for just £15!

By phone, WhatsApp or Zoom, we can look into what’s going on and get experienced feedback enabling you to decide your next steps with confidence.
Why people use this service
Many won’t come here just for “advice.” They’re usually trying to solve one of these problems:
Do I actually need an electrician?
Something’s not right, but you’re unsure if it’s serious enough to justify a call-out.
Is this dangerous?
A tripping circuit, a burning smell, a buzzing socket — and you just want to know if you should stop using it immediately.
Am I being told the truth?
You’ve had a quote, an EICR report, or advice from someone… and it doesn’t quite feel right. You want an independent check.
Can this be fixed easily?
You don’t want a visit if it’s a simple fix — you just want to know what you’re dealing with.
How much is this likely to cost?
You’re trying to avoid the classic trap: a £100 problem turning into a £1,500 surprise.
Who do I actually believe?
Google says one thing. YouTube says another. Online forums give 10 different opinions. A mate says something different. You just want a straight answer.
What you get in 15 minutes
This is a focused, no-nonsense session where we cut through the noise and get to the point.
You can:
* Describe the issue clearly
* Share photos if needed
* Get an experienced electrician’s interpretation
* Understand what’s urgent and what isn’t
* Decide your next step with confidence
No fluff. No upselling.
What this is NOT
* Not a sales call for repairs
* Not a vague internet forum discussion
* Not a replacement for a physical inspection when one is genuinely needed
If something is unsafe or needs hands-on testing, you’ll be told straight.
Why this works
Most electrical decisions don’t fail because of complexity. They fail because of uncertainty.
This service looks directly at your specific concern to remove the uncertainty quickly so you don’t waste money, time, or energy on the wrong solution.
Simple pricing
**£15 for 15 minutes**
Enough time to explain the problem, get clarity, and decide your next move — without paying for a full call-out just to ask questions.

2. Vist the payment page »
3. Then your virtual callout will commence!
Where safety, compliance or condition cannot be fully verified remotely, an on-site inspection by a qualified electrician in-person may still be necessary.
No liability is accepted for misunderstandings, incomplete information or conditions not visible during the consultation.
