Your local electricians in Llanrumney
A large post-war estate where homes have been upgraded in very different ways.
Llanrumney was built as a large estate in the 1950s and 60s. Today its homes range from fully modernised houses to properties still running on older wiring, and from owner-occupied homes to council and housing association lets.
We check the simple things first, including prepayment meter credit and tripped switches, then find and fix the real fault. Tenants get clear advice, and landlords get a clear record of the repair.
Common call-outs in Llanrumney:
- Prepayment meter and no power
- Older wiring faults
- Tripping kitchen circuits
- Electric shower failures
- Tenant emergency call-outs
- Sockets scorched or loose

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.
