Emergency electrician in Salford
No power, a trip switch that won’t stay up, or a burning smell in Salford? Call 07893 933403. An electrician is usually with you within 60 minutes, anywhere from Salford Quays to Swinton and Irlam, at any hour.
Safety first: if anything is sparking, smoking or wet, switch off at the consumer unit if you can reach it safely. Fire or smoke means getting out and calling 999.
Electrics across Salford’s homes
Apartments around Salford Quays and MediaCityUK often have all-electric heating and hot water, so a fault on one circuit can leave a flat cold and dark. Older terraced houses may have consumer units that have been changed and extended over the years. In any home, water from a leak above is a common reason a lighting circuit trips at night.
Faults we fix
- Total or partial loss of power that isn’t a network power cut.
- RCDs and trip switches that keep dropping.
- Burning smells, scorching or buzzing from sockets, switches or the consumer unit.
- Water in light fittings or sockets after a leak.
The rate
£89 for the first hour, then £45 per extra half hour, plus parts. No call-out fee and no night surcharge.

Questions people ask
My flat has no power but the building does. What should I check?
Find your consumer unit, often in a hall cupboard by the front door in Quays apartments, and see whether a switch has dropped. Reset it once. If it trips again straight away, leave it off and call us.
How much does an emergency electrician in Salford cost?
There is no call-out fee. It is £89 for the first hour, then £45 for each additional half hour, plus parts, at any hour.
How do I know if it's a power cut?
If the street lights and your neighbours are off too, it is likely a power cut. Call 105, the national power cut line. If it's just your home, call us.
