Your local electricians in Cardiff Bay
Many Bay apartments run entirely on electricity. When it fails, everything stops.
A lot of the apartment blocks around the waterfront, Atlantic Wharf and Mermaid Quay have no gas at all. Heating, hot water and cooking all depend on the electrics, so a tripped circuit or failed immersion heater is far more than an inconvenience, especially in winter.
We repair storage and panel heater circuits, immersion heaters, cooker supplies and tripping consumer units in flats, and handle older homes across Butetown too. If a leak from the flat above has reached your lights, we isolate it and make it safe.
Common call-outs in Cardiff Bay:
- All-electric flat with no heat
- Immersion heater not working
- Storage heaters not charging
- Leak from the flat above
- Tripping in new-build flats
- Commercial units by the water

What to do in the first few minutes, while a qualified electrician is on the way to you.
Switch off at the main switch
If it is safe to reach and your hands are dry, turn off the main switch on your consumer unit. That cuts power to the whole property.
Do not touch anything damaged
Keep away from sockets, switches or cables that are sparking, hot, buzzing or wet. Never try to fix them yourself.
Unplug what you safely can
If one circuit keeps tripping, unplug the appliances on it. A faulty kettle, heater or washing machine is often the cause.
Check if neighbours have power
If the whole street is dark it is a network fault. Call 105 to report it to the network operator. If it is only you, call us.
Smoke or fire: get out, call 999
If you see smoke or flames, leave the property straight away and call 999. Do not go back in. Call us once everyone is safe.
Call us and keep everyone clear
Tell us what you can see, hear or smell. We will talk you through staying safe and give you an honest arrival time.
Warning signs
Scorch marks, buzzing or a hot smell from your board?
Switch off at the main switch if it is safe to do so, keep clear, and call us straight away. Damage like this is exactly what we are called out to fix.

My flat has no gas. What happens if the electrics fail?
Heating, hot water and cooking all stop, so we treat it as a priority. We find the fault, restore what is safe straight away and explain any parts that need replacing.
Water is coming through my ceiling light from the flat above. What should I do?
Do not touch the switch. Switch off at your consumer unit if you can do so safely with dry hands, contact the flat above or your building manager, and call us to isolate the circuit.
Do you repair storage heaters?
Yes. We fault-find storage and panel heater circuits, controls and timers, and tell you honestly whether a repair or a replacement makes more sense.
