“Smelled burning near a powerpoint and called AB straight away. They talked me through turning off the circuit over the phone and were at the house within 40 minutes. Turned out to be a loose connection arcing behind the wall plate. Fixed properly and checked the rest of the circuit too.”

“Called at 10pm on a Sunday after the safety switch kept tripping. AB Electrical was on-site fast, diagnosed a faulty appliance on the circuit, and made sure everything was safe before leaving. Professional and no fuss.”
